Response was on Time I got the needed help as I needed it .
First time using this service, step by step made easy!
Excellent feedback from the support team who offered relevant and useful information with links to make the process simple and easy.
Professional and prompt response to my query and an amicable resolution reached.
I would like to extend my sincere thanks to Sara for her excellent service throughout the process and her hard work and assistance. I truly appreciate all the support provided in helping me set up my company. Best regards
Clare was courteous and fast. very helpfull.
After thorough ID checks and 11 months of service I’ve been notified one morning by Companies made simple that they will not forward me correspondence related to one of my companies, as two directors are from a country they’ve labelled as ‘high risk country’. When pressed this seems to be an internal decision, that country is not labelled high risk by any government source. Additional ID checks (needs translation and notarisation of translation) means hundreds of pounds extra. No notice, just arbitrary decision. correspondance led nowhere. So cancelled my engangement with them. Very disappointing service
I found the response and service especially from Gavin very professional and prompt. Highly appreciated and recommend.
I went from only having a vague idea of what to do to a Ltd company in 16 hours (probably faster if not applying on weekend). About 60 minutes of actúal form filling etc. Very straightforward.
I am extremely frustrated with Companies Made Simple (CMS) after receiving a threatening email at 1 AM on February 20, 2025, demanding payment by March 13, 2025. This is despite the fact that my company is in the process of being voluntarily struck off, a process clearly visible on Companies House and published in the Gazette on December 31, 2024. I changed my company address in 2023 to reflect my residential location and made an application for voluntary strike-off due to an error on my part. Companies House states that the strike-off takes two months, provided there are no objections. I paid fees for January and February 2025, as I understood that the company’s address would still be visible during this time. I do not believe CMS should be sending threatening emails without fully understanding the situation or the clear timelines outlined by Companies House. I was planning to re-register my company with CMS, but after receiving such an unprofessional communication, I will be looking elsewhere for services in the future. CMS should be more considerate of their customers and avoid sending premature, unfounded threats.
Karen was very helpful in sorting out my ID verification problem,
Kelsey was extremely customer orientated and explained all options open to me. She understood my request and dealt with it effectively, with empathy was lovely to talk to.
I just spoke with Clare and she was absolutely spot on with helping me find an answer to a question I had no idea about, being able to speak to Clare and the team have been huge help and support, for someone like myself starting out new.
Very helpful
Sam was great! She was friendly, invaluable and efficient.
Excellent and fast service, as advertised
The whole process was fairly straightforward; it was easy to pick a company name and the form was completed in a logical order, which made sense.
Very pleased with the service and speed in which the transaction was completed. I will use the service in future .
Phil was very helpful indeed, answering the phone on a Saturday afternoon and advising me on document upload which he processed for me the same day. Excellent friendly service!
straight forward not difficult at all
