Taxfix (formerly TaxScouts) is rated well by customers for its easy-to-use platform, quick turnaround, transparent fees and smooth, fast communication. Independent reviewers praise its speed and value, while noting that complex cases may need a specialist.
Avoid costly mistakes and let Taxfix take care of it for you. Our UK-accredited accountants make filing quick and stress-free, starting from just £99.
So let’s get into these benefits of filing a tax return with us, and how we make it a completely hassle-free (and well-loved) experience!
Customers rate Taxfix for a simple, smooth process from sign-up to filing. Our insights draw on Trustpilot UK reviews, feedback from our support team, and independent reviews by TechRadar and Generation Money. Here are the main strengths:
Filing with Taxfix is straightforward. You answer a few short questions, upload your documents and let your accountant prepare your return. You approve it before anything goes to HMRC. Here’s how each step works.
Self Assessment returns are filed online with HMRC. For the 2025/26 tax year, the online deadline is 31 January 2027.
Making Tax Digital for Income Tax (MTD) is HMRC’s digital way of keeping records and sending updates. Whether you need to use it depends on your qualifying income. This is your total income from self-employment and property, before expenses are deducted. Employment, dividend and pension income doesn’t count.
HMRC is introducing MTD in stages:
Taxfix offers three tax return plans. Each one is filed by a UK-accredited accountant and covered by our Accuracy Guarantee.
If your situation is straightforward, the first plan may be enough. If it is more complex, or you want support all year, the third plan may suit you better.
You can upload documents from your laptop or computer, or straight from your phone. On your phone, choose a photo from your photo album, or open an email attachment and upload it from there. Check that each file is clear and readable before you upload it.
Our questions are short and to the point. Answer them online, tick the options that apply to you, and move on to the next stage. After a couple of minutes, we have what we need to start preparing your tax return.
Once you’ve chosen your plan and paid, we match you with a UK-accredited accountant.
If your return is less straightforward, such as one with rental or investment income, we try to match you with an accountant who specialises in that area, where possible. We can’t guarantee a specialist in every case.
If you rent out property, see our landlord tax service. If you have investment income from property, shares, crypto or forex, see our investor tax service.
Your accountant is there to help. You can message them online while your return is being filed. Depending on your plan, you can also ask about your return, or about any tax topic, if you have a year-round plan.
Once your accountant has prepared your return, they’ll send it to you to approve. Check it carefully. If something doesn’t look right, let them know before anything is filed.
When you’ve approved your return, your accountant sends it to HMRC. You’ll receive a confirmation once it’s filed, and that’s one less thing to worry about.
Taxfix is designed to be quick, so your tax return doesn’t have to be a waiting game. Our UK customers give us 4.8 out of 5 on Trustpilot, from 7,491 reviews (as of October 2026).
And the best thing about it? Being fast doesn’t mean that your accountant isn’t preparing your tax return carefully. In fact, quite the opposite. Keep reading!
And once you’ve approved the final draft of your tax return, your accountant will file it with HMRC. You’ll receive a confirmation and then it’s done! A load off your mind knowing that you’re ahead of the tax game.

Consider Tax Advice: Some situations need more than a tax return. Consider a tax advice session if your situation involves joint ownership of property, a decision about setting up a company, or non-standard income. A tax return reports your income for the tax year. Tax advice helps you understand your options before you decide what to do.
If you’re not sure which applies to you, our support team can point you in the right direction. They can’t give personal tax advice, but they can explain where to go next.
