Report
Very unhelpful on the telephone, promises of callbacks which never happened. I'm hugely underwhelmed and frankly disappointed by the lack of basic courtesy from Hayhow and Co, entirely unprofessional. Try one of the many other firms in King's Lynn!

Report
I felt the need to post a review on this excellent company after completing my first year of accounts and a complicated self assessment return in the past few months. The company provided excellent advice and superb service which resulted in both an efficient return of my accounts and support in dealing with a tricky self assessment with lots of fast and efficient communications. I would whole heartedly recommend Hayhow & Co who provide an excellent service and great value for money.
