Need quicker respond
I’ve been doing business with SFM little more than a year and in this time I incorporated several companies on behalf of my clients. SFM is stable and professional service but there is a plenty of improvement that SFM need/may to do in the future.
1. Quicker respond to client. I know that WhatsApp is forbidden in UAE but consider options that customer manager has at least mobile phone for easier conntact. In past I waited and a couple days to get answer/respond.
2. Hidden costs. No one know in which jurisdictions is a need for mandatory stamp, mandatory POA…. You know about that only when you make a order on website.
3. Bank account opening support that SFM offer is service where there is some field to improvement. Few months ago, I had a client who was interested to open bank account in CIM. We make a order, paid in full, submit all the necessary documents and wait for a months to CIM reply, after that we paid 10K EUR deposit as CIM ask from us, and another one month of waiting to finally get rejection form CIM. SFM consider option that this service be refundable if bank denied to open business account for client.
4. Now I am working with Mary Morgand and it seems much better communication then my previous customer manager. Dear Mary, keep it going.

SFM refunded me a partial amount of my deposit after I made a mistake. I appreciate their goodwill and service.
It clearly seems to me that they are trustable.

Amazing Service and very professional firm.
Andreea Daescu was my account manager and she was super helpful in setting up the company as well helping me to open the bank account.
Highly recommended

Poor service and hidden costs
Poor customer service, continuous hidden costs and attempts to “shake you down” for further payments under any pretext possible.

Stay away from SFM
This company has been scamming me in all ways possible. They are out to get your money.
Upon registration and after having paid for a Swiss bank account, they informed me that this option was no longer available and offered me different new options for the money they charged. Through the year, the nominees dropped out simply for me asking a question on email. Support was promt on emails but never actually offering any solution to matters needed. When in the end they made me leave their services, they wanted to charge me extra 420 euros for nominee name change service and another 750 euros for exit fees. All in all, stay away from them.

Rak business experience
I found the experience of using SFM and in particular
having Mary Morgand as my link a particularly reassuring and professional exercise. In dealing with Mary I found her easy to deal with professional in her
approach and when the process became difficult by reason of Covid she was always there to support and
advise in a constructive way. My thanks to Mary for her guidance and support

Overall the experience was great
Overall the experience was great. I had the pleasure of being served by Mr. Abraham from the Dubai office.
I just have a note for The SFM team. Next time please Shows full steps that it takes to open the company, especially clarifying that there is an audit phase that precedes the opening of the company. Other than that the company is well known and trusted in services opening companies.

An experience to avoid
An experience to avoid,
None of the commercial promises are reached,
the process is too slow, and we just keep waiting unless we make phone calls to push to get results, but results are nevertheless not coming,
Average response time is about 3/4 days, then follows a 3 days week end...
What is supposed to be done in few days takes more than 10 weeks ... and still not completed at the date i write the comments, as far as I can see, the full process may take in total 12 weeks, which is purely catastrophic
A terrible experience to avoid...

Company opening process is reasonably…
Company opening process is reasonably efficient with costs and timescale accurate. Bank account was setup, but account closed without correspondence some weeks later.
Management thereafter is haphazard, and winding up process torturous, unreasonably expensive and seemingly without right or response to question invoices. Once SFM have your setup money, expect to be on your own, grappling with foreign tax departments and unexpected demands.

Like a lot of others: bad experience
Like a lot of others we experienced a very poor or non existent communication with SFM Offshore. They never managed to get us the bank account for the company and now as we cancelled the renewal they would like to have a bunch of money to cancel to company.
They did not fullfill what they told us upfront.

Totally satisfied with the level of services i have received. So helpful throughout the whole process and a lightening speed follow-up from the moment I applied for SFM service.

I've opted for the company + bank account service that they offer last week. They've asked for some documents to be supplied, which I am now working on gathering. So far so good. They have been very patient with me - will update once I receive them.
