The website can lag and get stuck. Double check that it actually submits, because I had problems. Otherwise, all good!

Hugo was very professional and helped.

Hugo was very professional and helped me to complete the filling of my company statement. I wanted to do it on my own, but later I discovered thta I tried it and it was not successful. For example my company personal code would not accept the 11 digits, which looked odd. Hugo proposed to do it with me and I had to give him these 2 digits remaining that was accepted from his end. Therefore, I could complete the rest of the filling easily. He was very helpful and polite!

Simple

Simple , straightforward and zero fuss in completing a routine admin step.
I have used this company to file dormant accounts and to dissolve also.
I highly recommend this company as they guide you through and give you an update with an easy dashboard to follow.

Very poor experience

Very poor experience. This company advertises itself very similar to Companies House. I filed to close a company - a simple administrative task - and they charged me £131. I quickly realised that you can do this direct on Companies House for £13, so asked for a refund almost immediately. They refused, stating that they had already "started the service" citing automated workflows. I challenged this, they refused. Luckily I submitted all the evidence to my credit card provider who raised a dispute and I received all the money back that way.

Hello Mark,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate you sharing your feedback.

From the information available to us, an order was placed through our Online Filings platform, but the information required to complete the application was not provided. We also sent reminder emails to help guide you through the remaining steps. As the required identity verification was not completed, we were unable to submit the filing to Companies House.

As an Authorised Corporate Service Provider (ACSP) registered with Companies House and supervised by HMRC for Anti-Money Laundering purposes, we are legally required to verify the identity of all directors and users before submitting filings on their behalf. These checks are a mandatory part of the process and ensure filings are made in line with the relevant regulations.

Online Filings is an independent service provider and is not affiliated with Companies House or GOV.UK. We provide a platform that helps businesses manage their company filing requirements, although customers are always free to file directly with Companies House if they prefer.

Regarding the £131 package you selected, this included both the Companies House filing fee and our Registered Office Address Service. This service allows a company to use our address as its registered office instead of a personal home address. When a company is dissolved, the registered office shown on the Companies House register remains part of the public record, meaning customers can keep their home address off the register. As Companies House records remain publicly accessible for up to 20 years after dissolution, many customers find this an important privacy benefit.

That said, we understand your concerns, and we can confirm that a refund has since been issued. We also value your comments, as they help us identify opportunities to improve both our processes and the experience we provide.

Thank you again for your feedback, Mark. We wish you all the best for the future.

Hi Roger,

We appreciate you sharing your experience with us.

We’re always aiming to provide a 5-star experience, so we’d love to understand what we could have done better to earn that final star. We’ve reached out to you via Trustpilot to see if you could share a little more about which parts of the process you found complicated. You’re also welcome to contact us directly at support@onlinefilings.co.uk if you’d like to elaborate further.

All product pages on our website include sections such as ‘How it works’, FAQs, and information about Online Filings. These are available to view before checkout and are there to give customers an idea of what is required once an order has been placed. Our team would also have been happy to help with any questions while you were completing your order.

We can see that your filing has since been submitted and accepted by Companies House, so we’re pleased that everything was ultimately completed successfully. We hope to hear from you with any further feedback.

Thanks again for your review!

Difficult verifying one director who did not have her phone able to accept emails. We eventually solved the problem by using a different mobile. Received a notification from Companies House informing us we hadn’t filed our return despite confirmation we had.

Hi Bill,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and for sharing the details of your experience.

Based on the information provided in your review, we haven’t been able to locate the relevant order in our system. We’ve reached out to you via Trustpilot to request some additional information so we can look into this properly. We’d also appreciate any feedback on what we could have done differently to make this a 5-star experience. You’re also welcome to contact us directly at support@onlinefilings.co.uk.

Regarding the director verification, information about what is required to complete the verification is available on our landing page on our website before an order is placed, so customers can see what is needed before proceeding.

OnlineFilings is an Authorised Corporate Service Provider (ACSP) registered with Companies House and is supervised by HMRC for Anti-Money Laundering. We must verify the identity of all directors before any filing can be submitted through our platform. This ensures that every filing we process is compliant with UK law.

Thank you again for your review. We hope to hear from you so we can look into the matter further.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re sorry to read about your experience and are concerned by the comments you’ve raised.

At present, we have not been able to identify your order from the information available in your review. We have contacted you via Trustpilot to request some additional details so we can investigate the matter fully.

For clarity, customers are able to review the information about the service and what is required before reaching the checkout stage. An order is only placed once a customer chooses to proceed through our website.

We hope the additional information requested through Trustpilot will allow us to locate the relevant order and look into the concerns raised.
