Jo Basting is an excellent accountant who never fails to deliver, is always professional, helpful, understanding and committed. Starting a new business can be very challenging and dealing with company accounts is never an easy task. Jo has managed to make something that could have been difficult, smooth and efficient. Jo has endless patience and a real knack for explaining the complexities of accounts and tax.  We are forever in her debt!

Mike Rivers, Fusion Office Design Ltd

Jo came highly recommended to me last summer and I took her on to handle all of my small business accounting requirements. We had a smooth transition and Jo very quickly found her feet with the complexities of my company accounts.  Her service is fast and conscientious and I strongly value her input to my company.

Mark Saunders-Griffiths, Mark SG Enterprises Ltd.

I would highly recommend Jo. She is polite, friendly but above all professional. She also has a lot of patience with me as figures are not my strong point! She explains things in detail but at a level I can understand. Jo also reminds me when things need to be done and I wouldn’t use anyone else for my business accounts.

Kate Phillips, Imagineville Limited

Jo is really knowledgeable and helpful. She has been able to guide me through my accounting from the basics to complex issues and support me with my queries whenever needed. I have really appreciated her flexibility and approachability. I have already recommended her to several other people and wouldn’t hesitate to continue to recommend her.

Dr Katherine Preedy, Preedy Psychology

Joanne has been incredibly helpful in helping me explore options that are beneficial and tax efficient for my growing business. She is incredibly knowledgeable and has helped me make some key decisions. I look forward to our continued business relationship and couldn’t recommend her enough.

Having set up our first company, we realised we knew nothing about the accounts and tax side of things and set about finding an accountant. We decided to contact Jo having received several recommendations from her clients through a local parenting network.

From first contact she was friendly and made everything so easy. We arranged a meeting, for which she kindly offered to come to our house. This was great as with 3 small children it would have been difficult to arrange to meet up.

She went through everything we needed to know and do and was very flexible when it came to what she could do for us. We liked this flexibility as it gave us the chance to stay involved in our accounts, whilst knowing that Jo was there to guide us if needed, and safe in the knowledge that she was managing the more complex side of setting up our business accounts.

She is always extremely thorough and informative and always guides us through our options for all accounts situations. She really knows her stuff and has done a fabulous job for us! We are very grateful for all her help, both in setting up our initial accounts and in taking our company forward. We would absolutely recommend Jo and Configure Accounting to anyone looking for a professional yet friendly accountant.

I have been working with Jo for almost a year now after moving from a larger on-line accounting firm and have been very impressed with the service provided. Jo is very professional and knowledgeable and has allowed me to get the most out of my company, something that in my experience, the larger ‘faceless’ firms are not concerned with. Highly recommended.

Ian Dillon, NeoMode Ltd

I have used configure accounting since I set up my business almost 2 years ago. Jo offers an excellent service and I have always felt secure my accounts are in good hands. Jo is always on hand to answer any questions I may have at hours that suit me. Excellent service and highly recommended.

Andy Flood, ARF Consulting Limited

Jo has been a great help with providing professional advice and support for our limited company. She has supported us through the reactivation of the company from its dormant state and is now providing a series of services from payroll to annual returns for both the company and its Directors. I am very happy with the quality  of service Jo provides finding her very professional as well as accessible and friendly and would heartedly recommend her to others.

Simon Marsh, Cymilly Ltd

Jo has provided me with invaluable help since I turned freelance in 2015. I wanted to take the hassle out of my accounting and Jo helped me to do this. She is always on hand for my numerous questions and has been both friendly and professional throughout.

Claire Kenton, Freelance Writer

We have worked with Jo on both mine and my husband’s tax returns. We have found her very easy to deal with, clear in her questions and responses, and have been pleased with her service to us. We would definitely use Jo again in the future.

Paul & Adele Turner, Personal tax client

I was fortunate to be recommended Jo as an accountant. In my first year of making a tax return (2015/16) as self-employed, her patience, and clear guidance have been exemplary. Her approach is highly professional, understanding of my situation, and extremely competent in drawing together all the information I needed to provide her with, in order to make the return well before the deadline. I was so delighted that as a result of her taxation expertise and knowledge – I was paid an unexpected tax refund. I highly recommend Jo and wish her practice every success.
