GoSimpleTax Reviews 

This worked for me for a number of years, had no issues and was straightforward to use.

Easy to understand and use to file my UK taxes while living abroad.

I used them in Autumn 2025 for the first time hence I often needed help. They mis-interpreted my emails and their replies were never much help for a beginner.
Requests to help by a first-time user are replied to with “we are just a software provider, not an accountant” and/or direct to HMRC manuals – not webpages on where to enter what figures on their software, which would be more helpful.
Also they do not advertise that they charge £10 per year to verify your identity using one of those services that takes a picture of you and takes a hundred times to agree that it matches your passport.

I live in Aus and was late with return not understanding I need to account for only house in the UK even though not investment … also had a half of the financial year in England without income. As half year non UK resident its not possible to submit via Gateway and even accountants don’t always know how to deal with this. Easy to use so fast 46 pages of tax return done in less then an hour. Interface could be more up to date pls very happy 😃

Very user friendly

Adequate. Over priced. Won’t use next year, found cheaper elsewhere

Much simpler than HMRC forms.
Well laid out input system.
A very good, helpful support team.
Helpful reminders (Optional).
Enable direct submission of tax return to HMRC.

GoSimpleTax,
They are really great. They seem to always sort out my issues when I have them.
Aiden and the team do a really good.
So thanks GoSimpleTax.

I paid the fee and the return didn’t lodge or tell me there was a next step so I ended him getting a fine from the HMRC

my return did not get submitted, but i go tchargered!

Makes doing tax returns for creatives so much easier

Made the job of submitting annual reports to HMRC so straightforward. I would highly recommend it!

Only reasons used this company because self assessment deadline was approaching and I didn’t realize overseas residents can’t make a self-assessment submission via the HMRC online portal.
Will not use this company again. Payment you see is not for entire submission. Each form used is charged for so fees can mount up.

ID verification system used exceptionally intrusive. Not only does verification system require a personal document it also requires you to allow a photograph look forwards and then turning right and left. Why was that necessary and where are my verification details now? More worryingly who has access to that data?

easy to use and very quick

Stress free. Easy to fill in form. I have used this service for years now and I am happy to continue. Thank you.

An excellent on line service backed by extremely good and very patient support, important to this Octogenarian.

Another year of excellent service, simply to use and submit my Tax Return.

Yet again more improvements in the website making it even easier - will defintely use again next year

Thanks !

So easy to use once you become familiar with what goes into each section. It also saves the information you’ve entered, minus the monetary value, for the following year’s tax return so it acts as prompts and makes the process so much easier and quicker for subsequent years.

Used Simple Tax before, very helpful
