I would recommend Tidball Accounting to anyone within the Western Sydney region. Teresa provides me with a excellent service in advising on tax considerations in starting a small business. She provided information that exceeded my expectations, and did it in a way that was understandable and relatable to my situation. No question was too silly to ask!

Can not recommend Teresa highly enough. Teresa goes above and beyond, brilliant, knowledgeable service. Teresa set up my Xero account for me, then very very patiently taught me how to use it. I'm in Far North Queensland and she's done all the work for me remotely, so you don't need to be close to her office for her to be able to help. This has made it so much easier to stay on top of my books, and has saved me around two full days a month.

Teresa gives up to date advice and was very prompt in organising my return and answering other questions I have. This particular time of COVID19 has been quite overwhelming for some of us Sole Traders so having someone answer promptly and sort things quickly for me has definitely been invaluable. I feel confident now having Teresa look after my affairs from here on in, and I have no hesitation in recommending her to any associates, family and friends.

I was recommended Teresa Tidball by a business advisor. Doesnt answer her emails, doesnt answer her phone. If your business is important to you I recommend an accountant that has better communication skills, unless you enjoy being audited by the taxation department. If there was a ZERO STAR option thats what I would give her.
