Honest Conversation and realistic approach.

Right from my initial conversation Jenny and Steve took away so much stress. Their advice and guidance has resulted in doing everything the correct side of the law to bring closure to our business problems. I spoke to many companies that with hindsight scared mongered.
I have recommended Basis and will continue to do so.

If Anyone Can Help, They Can.

The team at Basis helped me through a very difficult financial period when I felt that everything around me was collapsing. They have great knowledge, are calm, and deal with problems professionally.

The Best

I put off bankruptcy because I didn't want to address the situation that was getting out of control. It was by recommendation from citizens advise that I got in touch, and was the best thing I could have done. Jenny and Phil were knowledgeable, helpful and supportive through the whole process and even after. I am now debt free, sleeping at night and living my best life. Thank you both!

Putting me back on a level playing field

When my company lost a court case I ended up with financial problems.
The friendly staff at Basis went through my affairs and come up with a plan that gave me a budgetry strategy that suited my needs.
They now annually sort out my tax affairs with no problems.
Basis has given me a first class service over the years

My Husband and I were first introduced…

My Husband and I were first introduced to Jenny and Phil back in March 2020 just prior to lockdown! It was as inconceivable as lockdown that we would ever require the services of an insolvent specialist!
Due to taking some very bad professional advice back in June 2017 we were taken on a litigation journey that so very nearly split my lovely and amazing little family apart. That was until we handed our financial well-being over to the care and management of Jenny and Phil at Basis, who treated us with the upmost respect and compassion at all times and to date, which was so important to us.
Jenny and Phil held our hands firmly through bankruptcy, a process which is so emotionally overwhelming.
On behalf of my Husband and myself simply recommending Basis is not enough, we recommend the team that built Basis, Jenny and Phil both two amazing and professional individuals.

A totally trustworthy, helpful and professional outfit

I found Phil and Jenny to be super helpful, responsive and knowledgeable. They offered really practical and reassuring advice which proved to be extremely valuable. And unlike some other advisors that I have encountered, they delivered exactly what they said they would for their fee, and there were no nasty surprises or hidden extras. I would wholeheartedly recommend them

Basis took all of my stress away from day 1.

Basis took all of stress away from day 1, they dealt directly with all of the creditors and HMRC and every piece of correspondence and phone calls were directed to them. Jenny was amazing with her support and help every step of the way. If I could give them 6 Stars I would.

Customer service excellence!

I had the pleasure of dealing with Phil and Jenny who provided a genuine and honest service. I spoke to other companies and they were the only ones who did not push for me to use their services and tailored their advise to my situation. I'm so pleased and relieved to have found you and so appreciative of the excellent service you have provided!

Absolutely amazing advice from Phil and the team. They have steered me through a very messy bankruptcy that involved a mortgaged family home and the fallout of a business failure after 23 years of trading and employing lots of staff.
If you have the threat of bankruptcy and own a home, business or both, or have the HMRC breathing down your neck do not hesitate in contacting the team at Basis.
Well worth the fee, 10 times over!!

Give this firm a wide berth

BASIS insolvency took £5000 off us to help resolve a debt issue. They wrote plenty of letters, each one more confusing than the previous one. Their advice amounted to "hide from your creditors, we will help you to hide, you don't qualify for an IVA, don't respond to any letters, emails or calls from the creditors". We made one call to a creditor after they used a tracing service to locate us and Phil Stone the principle director of BASIS Insolvency flew off the handle and demanded a further £3,000 to continue with the case. Shambles firm, didn't respond to formal complaint letter so have had to refer my case to the Financial Ombudsman, has no interest in you as a client only wants to get his hands on your money. Worse decision ever to put our trust in this man and his associate. He is someone to be avoided at all costs. I wish there had been a review on this site before we signed up so to help others make an informed decision I am leaving a truthful and honest review.

As an update to this I did get some of my money paid back directly to me (£2,000) once I got the Ombudsman involved even though they tried to apply it to my husband's debt, sadly for them that didn't work as I could evidence I paid this from my own personal funds - so they can stick that in their pipe and smoke it!
