United StatesA Complete Waste of Money – Unqualified and Misleading Our company hired GotAccountants.com to assist with bookkeeping setup and financial management. What we received in return was one of the most unprofessional and incompetent services we have ever encountered. Despite their claims of expertise, it quickly became clear that they had no real understanding of accounting beyond the absolute basics. The company consists of just two individuals, Albert and Cali, who pretend to have a larger team and more experience than they actually do. They assured us they could handle our books, but after reviewing their work, it was evident they were completely out of their depth. We paid $18,323 expecting accurate bookkeeping and advisory support. Instead, they rushed through QuickBooks, making careless errors, misclassifying transactions, and creating inaccurate journal entries. Their method appeared to be mass-clicking through the system rather than actually understanding the financials. Serious Issues We Encountered: Lack of Transparency and Effort – The QuickBooks audit log showed they barely worked on our books yet claimed they spent significant time on them. Major Accounting Errors – They categorized Zoom and utilities as office supplies and completely ignored tax liabilities on the balance sheet. Avoidance and Evasion – When we asked for a Zoom meeting to clarify their work, they became defensive and refused to meet. False Claims of Completion – After just one month, they told us the entire year’s books were finished, even though nothing was correctly classified or reconciled. Deceptive Payment Tactics – Albert pressured us to pay for the full project upfront, insisting they had a team working on it. In reality, there is no team—only him and Cali. Final Verdict – Do Not Trust Them GotAccountants.com is not a legitimate accounting firm. They mislead clients, lack the necessary expertise, and do more harm than good. Their approach is careless, and they will leave your financials in worse shape than before. If you still choose to work with them, DO NOT pay for more than a month upfront. You will quickly see their lack of competence. If your business has any level of complexity, avoid them entirely. They are not capable of handling proper accounting, and hiring them will only result in wasted time, money, and frustration.

GBFinally I Know My Numbers... I have only been working with Heather O. since the beginning of the summer but have been so impressed. She is up on everything bookkeeping and best of all, she can explain it to me in ways I can grasp. Thanks, pleasecleanmybooks.com finally I feel like I know my numbers. Cathy Fort Worth, TX

GBWasn't a pleasant experience Wasn't a pleasant experience. They just passed me around from one rep who messed up my books to another rep that also wasn't that experienced in helping me get my books in order. Had to hire someone else who was a real pro to get things in order. Advice to management is to have a project lead to get a clearer understanding of what your client is looking for. Just assigning to any random book keeper lead to huge disconnect with expectations.

GBFeels like a total bait and switch Feels like a total bait and switch. Was told that the work we needed done could easily be done in a 5 hour block. Was immediately asked to pay another $595. Will never recommend to anyone. The actual accountant doing the work was helpful and understanding.

GBExcellent This has been a wonderful experience! Brenda has been excellent and extremely responsive. I have been to FIVE bookkeepers in the past and came to PleaseCleanMyBooks with a mess of a job that was efficiently handled. Couldn't ask for more.
