This is false hope, false reference, false accounts (question from books). This type of business should be stopped anyhow. I have paid for this service thinking of real accounts and work from home but just rubbish.

Getting a role was proving to be a real pain in the ..... I had a 2;1 and a little experience but everytime I applied for a role they said I lacked experience. This really got on my nerves as these companies just expect you to leave with experience no logic whatsoever. Anyway after about 8 months of trying I came across crown i spoke to them and they told me how their experience worked they even showed me success stories. to get to the point I got a role just just over a month after going with them. I'm pleased with their support but universities need to do more to help us get work after we graduate. This problem with experience is just not in accounting but across many fields. universities need to step up!

I joined crown 2 weeks ago and met with one of their consultants in London, I simply told them I can do the work but I just need experience to get in. They gave me a file and asked me to look at it briefly asking if I could do these tasks? I replied yes and on the spot they activated my ACCA portal. I signed up and took the files and completed them in a week. I wasn't looking to waste any time so I applied the set dates and started applying for roles. I have had response after response and have interviews lined up this week. I would point out that you should have an understanding on how to do do accounts as you will be doing all the work.

Crown accounts are a great way to gain experience in a difficult to enter profession. They send you a number of accounts to work on with a very reasonable space of time to complete them. If you have any questions they are always happy to help. Overall they are a great way of breaking into the accountancy profession.

Crown Accounts has been the perfect match for me in my first attempt to break into a field, which I have a passion for, Accounting and Finance, and helped me to get a position as Junior Finance Biller in a major company in Central London. I was brought with elaborate courses of studies with web links to deepen each notion covered in the courses. Furthermore, some teaching videos were also made available, and definitely anchored my understanding in the notions previously studied. Finally, on a regular basis, Crown Accounts sent me new accounts from their customers to work on and fill up and send them back to them. I enjoyed the staff being responsive and feeling supported both in receiving a full correction from my work, and also in the care they provide for their accounts assistants by providing a powerful and good reference when I got this position. This is why I could only thank Crown Accounts, and wish you the same enjoyable experience as mine!

Crown Accounts was my first ever attempt at accounting in practice as compared to theory...and working with Crown Accounts made me want to continue with accounting further. It was a really valuable experience!!!

Once contracted with Crown Accounts, I was sent a seriese of tasks to complete and return it back to the managers. I found it a little difficult at the considering the fact that knowledge I had was mostly book work. Once I realised the difference between theory and practice, I adjusted my reasoning and gradually gained the confidence needed to deal with accounts. The different assignment coming from different clients exposed me and I must say that I learnt a lot by practically solving real life accounting problems. My work at Crown Accounts did not only prepare me for interviews but it gave me the knowledge required to hit the ground and start running. I will happily recommend anyone who wants to join Crown Accounts to do so without any worries. Happiness will be yours at the end of the day.

After months and months of trying to secure a role, I came across Crown Accounts on a google search and I must say, being able to have the experience they gave me on my CV truly helped me. I had just finished my final year exam and had no accounting experience whatsoever. I would send my CV out with the customer service experience I found out about crown accounts, I got in contact for more information on what they provided. I was pleased with what I was told and signed up with them. I saw the benefit of being able to put the practical experience they provided on my CV as after a period of experience working on outsourced client accounts. Upon graduation companies started calling for interviews, and after about three week I had secured my first role as a Graduate Accountant I would highly recommend Crown Accounts to anyone who is struggling to find a role as a accounts assistant/trainee accountant and has no or little experience in accounting/finance

In the beginning I was not sure if it was the best option but after two months I got a job. They replied next day if I sent a question. Perfect customer service

After going uni and then not finding a role I decided to do my acca to help with finding a role. This didn't help as they were looking for experience, i got referred to crown by an old uni friend whom I spoke to on Facebook and recommended me to crown. They gave me experience and reference with securing a role as an assistant accountant.

After looking around for a role in accounting i came across crown on Google and went through them I mentioned the one that said a negative review they said it was trolling so I did the programme and it worked out perfectly so pleased as I know the system is against me due to my experience really worth the money.

Got a call from them before I came to the end of my Acca course. Knew the ins and outs already so went straight onto the experience. Got some of my objectives signed off for my per Acca. They also offered me one year towards my per. Got employment verification sorted and got a role in junior finance officer.

This is actually a great solution to a huge problem faced by us they need to get this out there as recruiters were completely ignoring my CV, I applied for so many trainee roles with no response. I got a call from C accounts and joined them in January got a role 2 weeks ago with their CV link and referencing. They need to do this for other area as well my friends are looking for legal and marketing roles.

I did this a couple of months ago and landed a role. They really helped me secure a role by doing two things which is the two things firms look for. Which is experience and reference. Would 100 per cent recommend for a platform to get started.

Was contacted by crown just over one month as I was looking for work I have all experience but was based in India, I came here and read good reviews and told them about the one that said fake. I said to them what is this about they explained me a number of companies tried to by the experience side from them and when crown refused trolling began. I also read the review that said get them to state that they will give you experience in an email confirmation which I did. So i went with it once they did that for me and as I've got experience I know what accounts look like and there was no problems with them. I updated my CV with the experience and they conducted a reference and They helped with my employment gaps. I got a role in pwc.

When I first joined I was so skeptical as there are so many companies who offer experience and don't deliver I was victim once already. I did my research and a few things didn't add up but after some reassurance by email stating they will provide me with what they say I went ahead with them. So I received their CV sub link and updated my CV with it. I didn't know you had to wait for the work before you could start applying, having done that I got an interview but the problem was crown said I hadn't done the work yet so the reference is goinging to be a problem. After going back and forth they agreed to do it but so they wouldn't be lying they made me do workload of about a month in 3 days which drove me to the ground. They then provided me with the ref and portal check and I got a role in Southwark council. I started my first few days sick as I was doing late nights to complete there work. Good service but was hectic for me just don't update your cv straight away as that causes problems

Hi guys, I signed up to Crown about 8 months ago and it was honestly the best thing I have ever done. I was your typical graduate who was in debt and working in a minimum wage job. As each year went by I got more and more desperate to get in to accounting but just could find anyone giving me a chance. Anyway I won't bore you I found Crown online and thought let me give it a go. Fast forward to 8 months later and I'v manged to secure a job as assistant accountant and the company has good career progression. Anyway guys I know on this website there's a lot of people unsure but in life there's always someone who won't believe in something. I would encourage anyone who wants to get in to accounting to take the chance. When I faced scepticism I just weighed it up £92.99 or a career in accounting. It totally paid off for me! Only bad thing I would say is the account take a little longer than 2-3 working days to be sent out as there so many candidates

1) Crown Accounts are using a fake address. They are not located in Kings Lynn in this building. A friend of mine turned up their to talk with them and then called them and they made some rubbish excuse, still not giving any real address.
2) There is no Company name listed on the website. For example "crown accounts ltd" or similar.
3) No mention of any names on the website
4) The phone number is a Norwich number '01603' but the address (which is fake) is listed in Kings Lynn.
5) When the website was listed they used a special website which means they don't have to give a real name or address.

Hi,
Iam looking to try these guys. Please array my fears of them being genuine before I part with my cash .

I can only tell you about my experience with the Company. I checked out everything and I was relatively happy before hand. I also got an email to confirm their guarantees which I kept for my records. Luckily they provided me all the training and practical experience I needed. They where also very accommodating in providing referencing.

Buswonker's Response to mhmdlsawy's Review

Is this a scám? I found them on Reed offering 'guaranteed accounting job' for £22.
Their website seems like for their business clients they 'outsource' their accounts to their 'work experience' clients so you basically pay £22 plus other hidden fees to do their job for them.

The address does not exist.
They will send you some excel files claiming that it is work from client's for you to do.
Eventually you will realize that this is a lie simply because they are copying from google and text books!
After all it is your choice.
I believe there is no such thing online as practical accounting experience.
You will need to find a small firm where they can take you in and build your experience up like I did.
