Customer Testimonials

We are really happy with the service that we receive from Blue Rocket for our company TOP Sports Coaching. They go above & beyond to ensure that our needs are met whilst doing so with excellent customer service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone looking to move accountants.

David Hathrill
Tops Sports Coaching Ltd

We struggled for years to find a good accountant for our business. 4 years in and we have finally cracked it with the team at Blue Rocket. Unrivalled support and customer service, a genuine willingness to help, and overall exceptional support and knowledge. Can’t recommend them enough.

Chris Guilfoyle
JCD Cleaning and Support Services Ltd

Blue Rocket suggested I changed the way I was getting paid as a director. This saved me over £10,000 which I was then able to put back into the business.

Peter Abrahams
Abounding Ltd

We have only recently appointed Blue Rocket Accounting to manage our accounts and already feel more informed and supported than ever before. The whole team are really helpful & knowledgeable, they are always happy to answer any of our questions and even put time aside to provide training on invoicing software to help you feel super confident. Best decision we ever made, thank you!

JWS Scaffolding Ltd

A far cry from our previous accountants who did things manually and left me feeling anxious with many errors made. I’ve only been with them for a few weeks, but they’ve shown more attention, consideration and customer service than any of my previous accounts combined.

We started a small business and blue rocket have been brilliant with help get things started and advising ways to make things run smoothly, always quick to reply to your queries.
