Report
After many years of dealing with late filings, extreme lack of communication and overpriced work my relationship with Wise & Co has come to end due to a dispute over an invoice. CRA shows filings are not completed and yet they insist on charging me for them. They also are trying to charge interest on the over priced invoice. Several people I know have had similar bad dealings with them. They are extremely hard to get ahold of make it seem like a major inconvenience for them to actually speak to you.
They come across extremely condescending and do not respond in a timely manner. I should have taken my business elsewhere years ago. I would not recommend giving them your work or your hard earned money.

Wise and Company have assisted our growing business in navigating through a series of business changes that required in-depth analysis and planning that extended well past the needs of simple bookkeeping and tax filing. I am confident the future of my corporate endeavors are now well planned and monitored, leaving me time to concentrate on running the business.

Pat Wise was professional, easy to deal with and for once we feel like we found an accountant who actually cares about our business. We would highly recommend Wise & Company to anyone looking for an accounting firm for either personal or business.

Absolute Crooks!! We were absolutely disgusted with this company and their business. Our corporation along with many others in our town have been grossly over charged by this company, in the thousands!!! And thats before doing any taxes or anything..And when asked to explain charges they refused! One of our employees was charged 4000 dollars to file her taxes including the gst which they forgot to file! Please don't let them criminalize you like they have so many of us... Absolutely terrible business ethics, morals, and all out just bad people in my opinion....
