Bambridge Accountants Reviews 

STAY AWAY
Took around 8 weeks to file my US taxes, despite agreeing that 4 weeks was enough time. This meant he missed the deadline. Transpired later that he in fact went ahead and filed without authorization and lied about it. He made a mistake that any CPA just out of school would not have made, which I figured out when his behaviour became so erratic that I talked to an actual qualified CPA in the US. I asked Alistair to make the required changes. I got no apology for not knowing something pretty basic (about mortgages) which he also screwed up on my previous year's return.
He also failed to file an additional form even though I reminded him twice. Eventually seeing the deadline close to slipping by I filled it in myself and sent it to him so he only had to copy what I had already done.
He did the amendment and then never filed it. It's now over 6 months since I first sent the documents in and he still hasn't filed the amendment despite the fact that he has done it. I have practically been begging by email. It's all so inexplicable and miserable to deal with. I wish there was a body I could report him to but i'm actually not sure he's qualified. Can't find him in any registers yet and no letters after his name on his email or website or LinkedIn.

Did an error in our US return and then stoped responding to us

What I really appreciate about Bambridge is their strong understanding of both the UK and US tax systems. They were recommended to me by a former colleague. Compared to a previous accountant I worked with - who was more expensive and less pleasant to deal with - I’ve been very happy with Bambridge’s service overall.

Having read some of the other reviews, I can say that communication has generally been good in my experience. There have been occasions where I’ve needed to follow up, but I’m also aware that I’m not always the quickest to respond myself, so it works both ways. Overall, I’ve found them knowledgeable, helpful, and good value for the level of cross-border expertise they provide.

I have a lifelong phobia of getting tax paperwork wrong, so picking Bambridge Accountants to handle my UK return was a great choice. Minimal fuss and great communication made it a lot easier.

Ive been using Alistair and team for the past 6 years and they have been nothing short of amazing. I am always kept informed of any tax changes and always receive a prompt response to my returns and any queries. Thank you to the Bambridge Team!

Alistair and his team have looked after my US tax and FATCA reporting for 10 years now, and I have been very impressed. The team are professional, but also friendly and approachable, with any queries I have answered promptly. The service is good value, so I would highly recommend using Bambridge Accountants.

I have used Bambridge Accountants for the last few years in filing by US tax return. Callie and Alistair are both very efficient and prompt in replying to emails and queries. They have made the entire process seamless and stress free.

Having used Bambridge in the past to help catch up on my FBARs, I needed assistance with filing my US taxes this year (having done it on my own in the past), and I'm so glad I chose this service. Alistair was extremely prompt in his responses and clearly explained what was required. He demonstrated knowledge of US Tax law and made recommendations I may have missed or been unaware of, and I felt confident in his ability to handle my situation. The entire process was efficient and professional, and the final results were excellent. I couldn't have asked for a better experience.

I have been using them for the past 6 years. I always recieve prompt professional services and recommend them to my ex-pat friends. Highly recommend them for any of your tax needs.

Alistair is a Professional's Professional. He knows everything there is to know about US/UK tax laws at the tip of his tongue. You won't find anyone better.

Up until the time when I renounced my US citizenship, Bambridge Accountants in London have handled my American tax returns to the IRS with efficiency and courtesy. They have been on considerable help with this process for me as a British ciitzen.

I adore Alistair and the team at Bambridge Accountants. They never have steered me wrong. While my first consultation with them was a bit scary (they redid my own taxes for me for a period of 3 or 4 years), they were patient and explained why we had to do certain forms.

I could not recommend Bambridge (in particular Alistair) higher. I am a freelance actor and I have been with Bambridge for 8 years and they are always super efficient, helpful and supportive. The process of submitting my accounts with them is super easy and stress free. By far the best accountants I’ve had as an actor in the 20 years I’ve been working.

Have been using Bambridge accountants for a few years now, I'm a music freelancer - was recommended them via Musicians union. I couldn't recommend them more highly, always super quick on turnaround, really friendly.

Alistair is always quick and supportive with my personal tax return. Always feel confident that if I have any problem, or any complexity, they will know the answer.

I can’t get any response from them. They supposedly filed my son’s US tax return. However even though I have e mailed countless times I have got no response. I have no idea whether the return has been filed.

I've been with Bambridge Accountants for a long time now and value Alistair's expertise and advice.

Finding Bambridge Accountants to handle my USA and UK tax returns has been a revelation. Quick, precise, kind, and super efficient.

I have been a client for a number of years. The service from Bambridge has been excellent. They are very attentive and efficient. I highly recommend them.

I’m amazed at how Bambridge manages such a high volume of business, yet Alistair consistently makes the effort to personalize the service.

From thoughtful emails that prompt me to consider return dates in advance, to promptly answering any questions about navigating two tax systems, Alistair and the whole Bambridge team make the process seamless.

Any issues are swiftly resolved before submission deadlines, and the reminders around those distinct deadlines are always incredibly helpful.

It gives me great confidence and trust to know that I’m working with a service that truly understands what it’s like to have interests on both sides of the Atlantic.

I’ve also noticed that Bambridge goes the extra mile by replying outside of regular hours, accommodating transatlantic time zones. The team is among the most efficient I’ve encountered in an accounting firm.

Having a company that handles both US and UK taxes, with an in-depth understanding of the intricacies of both, is incredibly reassuring each year.

My personal journey would have been so much more difficult without them!
