★★★★★
Successful appeal by Appeal My Rates UK Ltd led to zero rates liability.
This company AppealMyRates (AMR) did exactly what they said they would. I found them honest and straight forward. Regrettably VOA took forever. AMR did have to Challenge an initial (no) decision which looked like kicking the can down the road by VOA. Eventually by contacting the right and appropriate VOA person who in turn visited our property and confirmed what they needed for a delist. Meaning zero rates, and backdated. AMR attended that visit at short notice. This could not have been achieved without the help and support of AMR. No money upfront was also key. I would certainly recommend AMR to others.

appealmyrates were fantastic and won my case
This company did exactly what they said they would, reduced my rates and communicated throughout. They were very honest – initially they said they would not be able to help and then I gave them further information they were fully on board, they did not ever mislead me. I approached them and checked their reviews first, I have found them to be a great company and cant thank them enough. I had a company cold call me in 2018 and I had to pay them over £1000 to get them to take my case which they said they would win – they didn’t and to be honest they had no incentive as they already had been paid, apart from a moral one – which clearly they lacked. Appealmyrates don’t ask for money up front, they are honest about what they can do, they deliver what they say and they communicate throughout. BRILLIANT. I am really grateful .
