"Easy as pie" says this first-time user

Used GoSimple to help me file my first return as a sole trader, accessed via a Which? discount.

Forms and format all extremely clear. Online advice available if you get stuck. Lots of helpful pop-up boxes in the form itself to help you remember what to include in which sections.

As I didn't want to risk making any rookie mistakes as a first time sole trader filer, I found this app and tool very powerful and excellent value for money.

Great for expats

As a British expat this makes life so much easier. Great interface and super easy to file your UK tax return. I like the fact I can also copy data to my wife’s tax return for co-owned and rented properties. Makes it a lot quicker.

No more accountants excessive fees yay

My first time doing my own self assessment for paye and landlord income. Did my own and a family member. My accountant was shocked when I told him that I didn’t need his services. Saved a lot on fees and learned more about my own taxes

Helpful and patient with queries.

The staff were very helpful when I had a problem and responded quickly. This was all done by email and I would have preferred to talk to someone. Nevertheless the service was good and the staff were patient with my lack of understanding.

Easy and intuitive interface for your tax return

I have been using Simple Tax for around 8 years to file my tax return. It is intuitive and easy to use interface. The option to copy pages from one year into the next coming year is helpful and speeds up the process when your income sources remain the same year on year. Filing to HMRC is also easy and effective especially for those of us who are non residents.

Used it twice, no hitches so far.

I've used the software to prepare myself asssement two years on the trot. No problems. It allows you to enter all the data and checkout the consequences before submitting the data to HMRC. Also has better explainers than the tax form.
