“I wanted to express my gratitude towards Bates Weston and the staff for their continued support, especially over the last year (2020). They are a delightful company to deal with and a joy to speak to whenever I call them. A client for over 55 years, I am 100% happy with their service and would wholeheartedly recommend them.”

“I have and will continue to recommend the team at Bates Weston who look after my business & personal affairs. The team respond quickly to my queries and provide full and balanced responses. The team’s response has continued unabated during Covid, providing relevant market information and continuing to provide an unbroken service, which I know will have been challenging for them personally. Thank you.”

“Having used Bates Weston for a number of years, I can honestly say they have impressed me with their professional and up-to-date approach. Always prompt with any response and most recently through pro-active communication during the Covid-19 outbreak. Bates Weston colleagues are working any way they can in order to put the client first. This fills me with confidence and I would happily recommend their services.”

“As a business, we have been clients of Bates Weston for over 30 years. It has always felt that you are working with us rather than for us. You never fail to respond promptly, appropriately and professionally to our needs, making us feel like an individual instead of just another client. You correctly anticipated the turmoil that Covid-19 was about to unleash and positioned your business and key staff to enable you to continue to provide expert advice and normal service regardless and this has not gone unrecognised.”

“It’s good to be brief sometimes! The service from Bates Weston during the lockdown has been excellent, as always.”

“Bates Weston have been an invaluable part of our team. They help us to keep a firm grip on our financial position and give us insight and guidance on our longer-term plans. They are always there to help us, and never more so than during the Covid-19 pandemic. They helped us make sense of and access the business support packages available, including the Bounce Back Loan Scheme, helping us to manage cashflow and taking us through the furloughing process. They make a real difference to our business and we have no hesitation in recommending them.”
