I was very impressed with the service from Tax Bees. All of the team who I have dealt with were excellent (specifically James, Richard & Wael) - highly knowledgable and always happy to help. I felt comfortable with Tax Bees throughout the whole process and would highly recommend their services.

Excellent service!

Prompt replies; clear info and advice; all charges stated in advance - I couldn't fault Tax Bees.

Prompt and efficient service , while being available if needed .

Brilliant service as always! Exceptionally responsive, supportive and highly knowledgeable. My original arrangement was complex and took a long time yet TaxBees kept the same high quality service throughout. They also help me for smaller regular questions and services and never a change in how they treat their customers. Highly recommended!

Tax Bees in Chester are an excellent and highly knowledgeable accountancy company. The whole team is extremely helpful and always on hand to answer any questions. Particular mention goes to Fiona, who goes out of her way to always explain things in a manner that is clear and easy to understand. If you are a small business and a friendly, professional service is important to you, then I would strongly recommend you give Tax Bees a call.

Excellent service, Fiona and the team are very professional, friendly and helpful, nothing is too much bother. Fiona sorted my books and self assessment for my small business and also my wife's self assessment as she runs a lease car for work. We can't recommend them enough, thanks guys!

Fiona at Tax Bees is absolutely brilliant. It’s a real pleasure to leave my tax affairs in such trusted hands — completely stress free from start to finish. She’s personable, easy to reach, and consistently goes above and beyond to achieve the best possible results. I couldn’t be happier with the service. Thank you so much for all your help, Fiona. Kind regards, Danielle

Very attentive and responds to emails very promptly. Offers a great service.

I have found Tax Bees, Chester a really helpful and customer focused business. This is my second year with them and nothing has been too much trouble in answering my queries and guiding me through my book keeping as a first time sole trader. Fiona has been my main point of contact with invaluable support from James and the team. Many thanks everybody and looking forward to working together in 2026.

After contemplation on whether to use a firm online without meeting in person, I am glad we did! I couldn't say enough good things about Tax Bees and why you should use them. To highlight, easy process to follow, excellent customer service (friendly, quick response time, easy to communicate with making the process seamless), met our timelines and requirements. I now have a firm I can work with for all my accountant needs!

We have only started to work with Tax Bees and all I can say is that they are a great business. Their services have been exceptional, they have given us great peace of mind and made us feel safe as we are just starting our own business. Totally recommend working with them

Friendly and extremely helpful staff who really know their stuff. Tax Bees have always delivered first class speedy service (handy when youve got a deadline approaching fast!) I wouldn't use anyone else.

From first contact to job done, everyone on the TaxBees team was friendly, warm and professional. Zero fuss, fast turnaround. I don't know if they are or not, but they give the feeling of a happy, family run firm. Highly recommend!

Tax Bees were superbly helpful and went above and beyond to help me with a tax return. Special thanks to Fiona for her excellent service!

Fantastic services, perfect for new businesses! Prompt responses and very helpful. Takes a lot of the headaches and stresses off running a new business.

Being a non UK resident and having just sold a UK property a Google search produced Tax Bees as being an experienced Capital Gains accountancy firm. The choice proved to be the correct one as I received an efficient and professional service resulting in a very satisfactory conclusion. To be recommended.

Fabulous, hassle free service for self assessment tax return. Quick, easy and stress-free experience, which was well worth the fee. Especial thank you to Fiona for her professionalism, rapid response time and general care. Thank you Tax Bees!

Popped in without any prior appointment and was greeted by Fiona. She listened to my tax queries and she explained in a clear and very straightforward way where the problems occurred. She is now sorting my tax problems out for me. Fiona was very professional and I would recommend Tax Bee to anyone who needs tax advice. Lovely friendly staff.

Once again Tax Bees have gone "above and beyond" my expectations. 12 months after assisting me with my Tax Return they continue to monitor my affairs with the Inland Revenue providing on going reassurances that all is well.

Really impressive service. I called just to make an appointment for a consultation but after outlining my issue I was given the advice I needed (without charge) in a easily understandable way. Many thanks Tax Bees.

Being a customer of Tax Bees is an absolute pleasure, Fiona and James are very professional ,friendly and welcoming and I would never hesitate in recommending them.

I found Tax Bees a great firm to use, they are all very friendly and helpful and really know what they are talking about, I would throughly recommend them.

I higly reccomend Tax Bees. Proffesional, efficient and very helpful

Very professional and efficient service. The fee was definitely worth it for savings made

The process from start to finish was excellent! made things really easy

Absolute brilliant service would definitely use again BRILLIANT

I can only endorse all the previously posted positive reviews about this business. Friendly people and yet extremely knowledgeable and professional regarding the subject matter. A pleasure to deal with and I can strongly recommend them for all your taxation matters.

Tax Bees have helped me get my affairs in order quickly and have allowed me to focus on the important side of my business and I've seen growth year on year since signing up with them. Nothing is to much hassle for them, from small queries to fixing years of unorganised books, and their staff right up to the boss himself are all such lovely people who have invited me in for a brew and a catch up on many occasions. Highlight reccomended!

Self assessment. Amazing experience. Had a sudden tax requirement, complex situation and they dealt with it promptly and professionally. Kept me informed all the way and gave advice as best way to be tax efficient. Just a chance walk in off the street. Absolutely superb.

Fantastic team and really helpful witch can be very confusing

I would have no hesitation in recommending Tax Bees. Such lovely, affable and super efficient people. Fiona has been amazing with me, explaining everything and making my life very much easier! A breath of fresh air in the complex world of tax... :)

The team at Tax Bees are simply outstanding. They make the process simple and uncomplicated which really helped me. If I ever have any other tax needs, I will use them without hesitation. A fantastic company!!!

What a great company . Very professional , friendly and helpful , first time ever self assessment wasn’t so daunting , set the digital system up ready for next year too . Thanks Fiona. (Also James for the very welcome ice cream on a very hot day ) will definitely be back .

Excellent service. My self assessment was complicated this year due to a change in circumstances but Fiona sorted it within a day and I even got a tax refund. Lovely bright friendly office with parking outside. Highly recommend

As a complete newbie to this Fiona guided me though the self assessment process and took all the stress out of it. I have been with tax bees for the past two years and they are always super helpful and I feel comfortable to ask all the “this might be a silly question” scenarios.

The team at Tax Bees are so helpful and approachable. Every interaction is simple and handled so quickly and professionally, wouldn't hesitate to recommend the service for anyone needing accounting made simple! Fiona has always handled my requests so quickly and efficiently, explaining everything and having the patience of a saint!

Always efficient, prompt and give sound advice. No hesitation in recommending Tax Bees. Thank you!

James provided great service handling a UK tax issue from abroad. Highly recommended

The team at Tax Bees were really helpful. I'm based in Ireland, and the team quickly and efficiently managed my CGT return when I sold my UK property. Thank you to James and Wael! Highly recommended.

Very efficient service with sound tax advice. We used the services whilst living in Australia and with their use of apps and prompt responses to emails the whole process was seamless

I would like to appreciate assistance of Tax Bees team and Fiona specifically for a professional consultation on my case. Wonderful groupf of great professionals!

Fast responding and always happy to help. Will be using them from now on! Really great experience with these guys particularly as a self employed worker and someone inexperienced with the ins and outs of self assessments. Highly recommend!

I've had an excellent experience with Tax Bees. The team are very friendly and have worked hard to keep my tax affairs in order. They are always available to answer any tax queries, and deal with issues promptly.

I am completely satisfied with my experience with Tax Bees, they go the extra mile & importantly, for me, it is personal. They phone, mail and get the job done very quickly, I recommend using them.

Wonderful, pain free, polite and very rapid. Made my annual Self assessment Form filling in very simple. They did it all. Many thanks to Fiona.

We are delighted to have chosen James and his team at Taxbees to take us through the Capital Gains Tax process. We can highly recommend them, their service was excellent throughout and they were a pleasure to work with. Bridget and John

James helped me with Non Resident Capital Gains Tax,he was very knowledgable and patient in a very complex situation, & I highly recomend him .

The company is outstanding. Communication and work carried out is second to none. Fiona has been clear and concise on all her work. I thank her for making the whole process so simple. Thanks again!

A true 5 star service! I truly cannot express how highly I rate my experience with everyone at Tax Bees! From my initial discussion with James as to my requirements and the subsequent plan and actioning each step I have been kept up to date and incredibly well informed by Fiona! Truly above and beyond! Should the day ever arise that I need this sort of service again, I will be looking no further. Thank you again!

Tax Bees was very professional conducting my tax return 2024-25. I had an exceptional issue selling a piece of farming land in South America which I acquired 30 years ago from my parents. James provided me during the process with excellent advice on how a commercial valuation should look like and swiftly gave me very good guidance. Finally, the tax return result was very positive for me. Fiona completed my tax return including my German pensions and submitted electronically to HMRC. The communication with James and Fiona was courteous and very responsive. I strongly recommend Tax Bees for a tax return as James and his team have an excellent expertise on foreign matters. Thank you, James and thank you Fiona for an outstanding job performed.

A big thank you to everyone at Tax Bees, absolutely brilliant Accountants, extremely helpful and always there when you need them, I think the best accountants in chester, would highly recommend

I highly recommend TaxBees James and Wael are most professional They made what I was expecting to be a nightmare completely painless Thank you both so much

I cannot recommend TaxBees high enough. All the staff are extremely friendly and approachable. Fiona went above and beyond to solve my problems. Excellent service.

Excellent service provided by all at Tax Bees. They are very knowledgeable, with a friendly manner. I would not hesitate to use them again and cannot recommend them highly enough.

The best efficient, cost friendly and trustworthy accountant in town. I was so worried about my crypto tax , Fiona was able to sort out my crypto gains/loss brilliantly. I was expecting a huge bill and was worried about it all as I didn't know where to start . From the initial contact she understood straight away my problems and I felt I was in good hands. She saved me so much time and money from start to finish, she was very approachable and able to sort it out in a timely manner. I highly recommend her and Tax Bees gained a new lifelong customer. The icing on the cake, I didn't get this huge tax bill!

I cannot recommend Tax Bees highly enough. They went far, far beyond what we had asked them to do for us (which was just to file our self-assessment for this tax year), speaking to our accountant in the EU country where we live to clarify our situation, and correcting our UK tax returns for the previous year, which had been filed incorrectly (by another accountant) - all within the space of two weeks, as we only contacted them in mid January, when the deadline was looming. They were very easy to get hold of - phone calls were answered promptly, and and despite it being the busiest time of year for accountants, Fiona was always ready to talk to me at length to answer all my questions. Their customer service is excellent, as is their knowledge of their field. We have had an extremely positive experience with James and Fiona, and will be instructing Tax Bees for all our HMRC related issues in future.

Thanks so much to Tax Bees once again for supporting with our end-of-year tax returns. I can't recommend James Dean and the team highly enough. Always responsive, helpful and highly knowledgeable. Professional from start to finish. Great results. Reasonable rates. Brilliant service. Thank you!

A great personal stella service provided by this excellent firm. Many thanks to Fiona and James for your guidance and invaluable knowledge . David and Barbara

James and his team are simply excellent - we only 'met' over the phone, but their warm and welcoming nature encourages trust from the outset. Their advice, guidance and support in completing our accounting & taxation needs was exceptional and invaluable - we would highly recommend them. Thank you James and everyone else at Tax Bees - looking forward to continuously working with you.

I rang Tax Bees for advice on how to go about an unusual tax matter. Got put through to James. Can't praise him enough for his expert and valuable advice. Friendly, helpful and put me at ease with the next steps. Thanks again James and everyone at Tax Bees. 5 star company.

Tax Bees are a delight to work with. James and Jayne were very friendly and welcoming on my first visit, and the team have been very efficient and professional throughout, offering a much more cost-effective service than my previous accountants.

Very responsive to questions. Easy to get hold of the right person when needed. Always provided helpful suggestions. I felt like I was being looked after. Would highly recommend tax bees if you're looking for a personal touch. James and Fiona have a caring attitude which came across in bucket loads.

I am a busy professional Artist and teacher so I was very relieved to find Tax Bees. The friendly Staff are very friendly, Professional, knowledgeable, keeping me fully informed and quick!!

Just prior to the 1st (and New ) Labor Government 2024 October budget - in which it was highly probable that CGT rates would significantly rise, - I chose to sell my UK property and needed urgently to assess for CGT and file with HMRC. As did about ten million other people, and so, tax advisory services that are available were totally snowed under. Not withstanding that I received a first class and crystal clear service from Tax Bee’s James Dean and Fiona Millington that not only allowed me to beat the submission deadline but for them to accurately calculate the CGT applicable, file the return and save me some GBP4,000 to boot! I can only recommend TAX BEES should anyone living abroad be seeking UK tax guidance. I found other components of selling my UK property, from Thailand, very cumbersome given UK parties involved- (Property agents, solicitors and even banks) seem very reluctant to proactively make telephone calls to their overseas customers in these modern times. However this was NOT the case with James and Fiona, they were only too happy to make an international call and discuss issues in real time. - Very refreshing and thanks to you both, the filing and payment was made without any hiccups. Rgds Ian Claxton, Thailand.

Efficient and friendly service from the team. They also went into great detail for my requirements (slightly different since I had 2 entities to sell) which was something I would not have had a clue about. Would recommend to anyone looking for a stress free assessment claim. Thank you!

Contact Tax Bees via their website. Responded very quickly by phone. Couldn't get through to me and sent me an email explaining this. I called them immediately. I had one tax query which they answered on the phone. Extremely polite, professional and helpful. Thank you James at Tax Bees.

James, Jayne & Fiona are all very friendly & super helpful, they are always there when you need them and are very supportive. Great Company

James and Fiona are always so welcoming and are available whenever I have needed them. They have made setting up my own company very easy and are happy to pass on their extensive knowledge. I find them reasonably priced for the service they provide and nothing is ever to much trouble. Where they are situated makes it so easy to pop in with a query or drop off paperwork needed. Highly recommended 👌

Tax Bees: A highly capable and knowledgeable organisation that deliver results and very approachable too. Yes I would highly recommend Tax Bees.

I can full heartedly recommend James for his friendly, knowledgeable and efficient service. The HMRC website does not cater for more complex CGT returns so James’s help and expertise was greatly appreciated. I will certainly use his services again in the future.

Absolutely Fantastic. I came here very overwhelmed with my sorting my out business and self assessment tax returns. Fiona and the team took control of everything and helped navigate me through it all very easily. I have such peace of mind now, highly recommend!

Really helpful people. The whole process was simple with lots of help all the way. Easy to use site. Best options explored with excellent results.

I was impressed from the initial telephone enquiry regarding CGT. James is very knowledgeable and up to date with policies and procedures. My finances were taken care of and made easy with Tax Bee’s professional help. Staff were always pleasant and easy to contact. Will definitely recommend to family and friends. Thank you Tax Bees.

Excellent advice and practical help. Very knowledgeable and professional. Fiona has Taken the worry out of dealing with my businesses tax and payroll affairs. Highly recommend.

I am very impressed with James and his team. They are very professional and responsive. The CGT calculation and Tax filing was handled smoothly and on time. I would highly recommend them.

Really helpful advice delivered clearly and without jargon. Highly recommend.

Tax Bees are just awesome! I run a small limited company delivering services into the NHS. The work is what I’m good at and I enjoy it, but I am not an accountant and when it comes to sorting out taxes my Maths A-Level and Excel skills just aren’t enough! Tax Bees are just amazing, the tools they give you access to, and their outstanding service is incredibly valuable to me. They take care of my business taxes and payroll, they present the information about those in a simple digestible way. They are very easy to contact, responsive to emails and calls and importantly they take ownership of any accountancy issues I have. If I have a problem they make it theirs and progress it until it is resolved, sometimes they’ll contact me telling me they fixed a problem I didn’t know I had! I cannot recommend them highly enough, I moved to them after trying two online based accountants and the contrast is night and day TaxBees are outstanding!

Very happy with these guys- it was very easy to get in touch with a real human, who knew how to help and all the rules and what could and couldn’t apply. The rules for CGT had me in a tangle and I was very glad of their help to get it all straight. Quick and professional and friendly. Definitely recommend them!

Excellent support with my self assessment return. Answered all queries promptly. Excellent service and felt very supported by them throughout. Thank you . Helen

Thank you very much for your super efficient and professional service. My Tax Return was done in 3 working days, even though I live in Australia with 7 hour time difference!!! I appreciate all your assistance you have given to me.

James was really helpful when I called asking for advice about Capital Gains Tax. Clearly a very experienced and knowledgeable pro. Thanks for the assistance James.

Tax bees provided a first rate service with a quick turn around. Their GCT advice has proved very beneficial and I was kept well informed through the process - Matt H

James was friendly, flexible and knowledgeable. He gave sound advice regarding tax, self-assessment and working in multiple roles. Highly recommend.

Great service - we felt in very competent and experienced hands from the get-go. James was really helpful offering great advice over the phone (at the drop of a hat) to help us deal with the challenges of interacting with HMRCs frustrating online system. This help alone was worth the fee! Very happy customers!

I reached out to Tax Bees with a rather complex tax issue. As a Non-Resident UK citizen, residing in Belgium, the prospect of navigating CGT on my own daunted me. Within an hour from my initial email contact, James called me and we ended up working together. After thorough questioning to ensure he fully understood my situation, James provided me with the information I had been looking for. All in plain English avoiding jargon and in a lovely friendly manner. I would like to thank James and his team and recommend working with them wholeheartedly. B. Opris - Brussels

Great company to support your business, always a phone call away and will go the extra mile

Great advice and great services would highly recommend, friendly people. Since I met James Jayne and Fiona they have made me feel more at ease as my last accountants really messed my books up, couldn’t be anymore grateful for there help and guidance with everything! Just want to say thank you guys so much for all the help!

I live in New Zealand so had the complications of tax committments when I sold my UK property. The team at Tax Bees went above and beyond in dealing with this for me. A huge relief and I thoroughly recommend them 100%. Sincere thanks to all.

These guys are just amazing…. I set up my little Ltd company a year ago & they have been nothing short of spectacular. They have helped set up the business & have seen it through to its current position, looking after VAT returns, payroll, book-keeping & all other aspects of the business, whilst being friendly, funny, cheerful & professional alongside making a great brew & having an adorable guest spaniel from time to time! Can’t recommend James, Jayne & the team enough x

A super service. I had a pressing issue. James replied even though it was late on a Friday. His advice and professionalism was excellent. My tax query was resolved in half a week. Very good value.

I am a UK citizen currently working abroad. I needed help to file a Capital Gains Tax return on the proceeds of the sale of my London home. I search accounting companies online and chose Tax Bees who seemed to have good reviews. From the initial email I've sent I was amazed by the ease and efficiency of this company and particularly James Dean, who dealt with my case. I was very impressed by prompt responses, video calls via WhatsApp, unhurried conversations, giving detailed explanations on every point, demonstrating excellent knowledge of the rules and regulations and very pleasant and human way of dealing with clients. James has been absolutely brilliant, highly professional, wonderful manners, punctual and efficienct. I full heartedly recommend James Dean and Tax Bees for the any CGT or tax return matters, especially if you leave outside the UK. They make things happen seamlessly. Big thank you for your help.

I don't often write reviews but I had such amazing service with Tax Bees that I felt I should! I contacted James with only a few days before my CGT deadline expired, having struggled with the HMRC system. He problem solved the whole process, providing immediate support to set things up properly and reassuring me throughout. I really appreciated his friendly, professional and knowledgeable approach. Love that it was a fixed fee as well which was lower than other quotes I had. Definitely money well spent. Highly recommend.

James made the process of working out and paying my CGT in my rental property really simple! Mine was a particularly tricky to calculate having lived in the property with my ex husband who bought the property prior to me meeting him. We then rented it out for many years prior to me then me purchasing the other half of the property in our divorce which I then renovated prior to sale! So a bit of a minefield! But James took all the stress out of it. I would highly recommend him!

I am moved to recommend Tax Bees of Chester to anyone requiring an honest and competent accounting firm for the submission of tax returns to the Inland Revenue. I contacted the proprietor James Dean after having suffered a major loss in my life, needing a competent income tax professional to guide me through a maze of issues. Nothing was too much trouble. I was treated with kindness and respect by the owner of the business and his two very able lady assistants, and my tax issues were resolved within a few weeks. My tax bill was significantly reduced. I did not find the charges I paid to be exorbitant, and in general, I feel that I got top class service from Tax Bees at a very reasonable price. Anyone needing a similar service should seek a quote from this company. I can only say that my experience with them has been a very heartwarming and happy one.

I cannot recommend James, and Tax Bees, highly enough. My elderly mother got a Capital Gains Tax letter from HMRC which I only found recently and the payment deadline was approaching fast. James was reassuring and professional and sorted the issue extremely quickly. I found Tax Bees on Google and wasn’t expecting much, in fact I only contacted them as I was running out of time and other accountants were busy. How wrong I was! The service was amazing and I will use them again for all my tax issues.

Tax Bees do what they say-they give free, unbiased and honest advice. No hard sell, no judgement, no delving-just straightforward advice. Queries answered both promptly and politely-highly recommended-you have nothing to lose, go ahead and just ask :)

I recently used the services of James at Tax Bees. James was able to address my tax query in simple terms and I found him to be very professional and prompt in my follow up query. I will definitely use their services again for future tax requirements.

Great experience - I knew who I was talking to and James and Jayne were at all times friendly, competent and supportive. Even the international element didn’t deter them. An excellent service.

It is worth a lot when you can get a professional advice over the phone. Tax Bees answered my question just in minutes, in a extremely friendly manner, and with no attempts to upsell. Highly recommend them as CGT professionals!

Having sold a UK residential property I had owned for 18 years I was facing a potentially significant CGT liability. Although the HMRC calculator appeared pretty straightforward I decided to approach an expert and fortunately found James just in time. I found his willingness to provide no obligation up-front advice over the phone very welcome and decided to appoint Tax Bees for peace of mind with the added bonus that his very reasonable fee might be saved when he got into the detail of my case. I certainly pays to spend some time putting together all the facts; as a result it proved very fruitful to invest in James when he significantly reduced my expected liability by many thousands compared to the HMRC online calculator. Lesson learnt - its never as simple as it first appears and not all the rules are entirely transparent!

Tax Bees were fantastic at quickly and calmly helping us with a family tax situation. James was a reassuring presence during a stressful time. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending him.

I asked Tax bees at short notice to help out with my CGT submission, i found the team to be very efficient and very approachable . The fee was fixed .. so no nasty surprises at the end, and i believe the tax saving and peace of mind knowing that a professional had been involved is very reassuring. Thanks to James and Jayne.

Fantastic service very efficient attention to detail Friendly and very knowledgeable

I popped into Tax Bees on the off chance that I might be able to get some help with my Self Assessment Tax Return. I drive past the building everyday and often wondered whether they would be able to help advise me. James and Jayne were so friendly and welcoming and after a nice chat and a coffee they reassured me that they could help straight away - even during the month of January which is a very busy month for them. I would certainly recommend Tax Bee's if you have any Tax needs or concerns for your business or if like me you just need help and guidance on that dreaded self assessment. James also looked into my last four years of pension tax relief and managed to get me a rebate. Very happy customer. Thanks again James and Jayne!

We recently hired Tax Bees for capital gains tax reporting and we're very happy that we did. James was very helpful, knowledgeable and efficient. Money well spent :)

Excellent service from Tax Bees! Very friendly and efficient. Completed our CGT. I would use them again and would highly recommend them.

Can't recommend highly enough, a small price to pay for peace of mind, James was brilliant and nothing was too much bother with dealing with my CGT. I'm delighted to recommend and the small fee will more than pay for itself. Thanks James

James is a very helpful and responsive individual and managed my Tax matters very efficiently, would definitely use again if the need arose.

James and Jane were very efficient and completed my Capital Gains Tax return extremely quickly . Great service in a warm , friendly environment. Highly recommend.

We used Tax Bees to navigate the possible CGT minefield for us, following the sale of a second house. James made the process extremely easy, providing us with sound advice and clear, concise instructions enabling us to complete the parts that only we could do. His knowledge ensured that we paid exactly what we owed to HMRC, but crucially no more than we owed. The entire process was extremely quick and comfortable thanks to James being so prompt with his responses and requests. I would not hesitate to recommend Tax Bees to anyone.

I strongly recommend working with James Dean (Tax Bees). I was worried about how to calculate and pay CGT on my late parents' property and James was pleasant and helpful to work with. He replied promptly with simple and good advice. His advice saved us more money than the fees that we paid him. IN SHORT - IF YOU NEED HELP WITH CGT THEN DEFNITELY WORK WITH TAX BEES

James has been incredibly helpful in guiding us through some complex tax questions. His expertise in the area of Capital Gains is outstanding. We are very grateful for the support & professional wisdom we have received. Many thanks 😊

Excellent service. Made to feel comfortable and confident of the outcome. I would highly recommend.

Great advice very helpfull
