You are very welcome, Jono. Thank you for your kind review! – Shan at 1st Formations.
Excellent service!!
I recently contacted 1st Formations because I couldn't complete the purchase of one of their services on their website due to a technical glitch. I spoke with Adam, who understood the issue immediately and resolved it on the spot.
This wasn't my first experience with the company. A few years ago, I used 1st Formations to set up a new company, and I was equally impressed then. Their website is intuitive and easy to use, the instructions are clear, and the service is consistently excellent. Their prices are also very reasonable—far more competitive than the fees charged by many accountants for similar services.
I'll certainly be using 1st Formations much more in the future and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for company formation or related business services. Highly recommended!

Quick and easy company set up
Straightforward company set up, done quickly. I've had some delays around setting up banking as an international director but that's a separate issue. For 1st Formations, so far so good!
