Smashed ATX with 82%! I couldn't be happier with the course, especially grateful for the reworked past paper questions updated for the current tax year so I had practice at wider variety of different questions than would otherwise have been available

Great that you did so well and thank you for appreciating our efforts to keep it all updated - it's a big task!
Well structured learning material, helps me navigate the syllabus even in my tight work/school schedule

CIMA P1
So im a CIMA student. Have been using Kaplan for my studies(through work)
And have found the free acowtancy resources the most useful so far for the first 2 exams E1/F1 but couldnt get on with the kaplan lectures for P1 at all, so bit the bullet and paid for premium content for it. Passed it this morning first time and couldnt have done it with Acowtancy. Will now be getting premium every module going forward, probably wont even bother with the lecture’s elsewhere. My only one negative is that they dont have any content for the case study so i’ll sadly have to use something else :(
But worth every penny, wanted to come and leave this review so hopefully more students in my position will stumble across this goldmine! Thank you x
I'm relatively new to the company. However, my experience so far is great for me. I hope to learn more as i get interacting with the company.

Decent learning tool
A lot more enjoyable than reading the study texts. However, there are certain areas which seem dated. APM doesn't have a textbook area for example and the examples in the classroom can be from papers 7+ years ago.

I bought Acowtancy after being recommended it by someone. I tried to use the videos but I found them far too difficult to follow, very vague and they don’t explain things in a manner that is good for beginners. Bear in mind this is 200 pound for a course, so if you don’t like the content they won’t offer you a refund. Even if you are a student who spent so much money on something that you cannot learn from. I tried contacting them before posting this thinking they would be understandable but just as per usual; it is a company that only cares about your money, no care for students whatsoever.
My advice is, go on YouTube, use open tuition, it is much easier to learn from and it is FREE.
Don’t be putting yourself into debt, because 200 pound for pre recorded 10 minute videos and some basic questions unfortunately in my opinion is not worth it.

Thanks, for your post here.
Firstly, let us say that our initial response via our tutor support service was this, personally from the founder of aCOWtancy (who was formerly Director of Training at BPP) - 'I see you've only had it a few days and only looked at 4% of the course - maybe give it a little longer'.
Our second response to you was supportive - 'We cant offer refunds - due to the nature of the product - but if you continue we will help as much as we can.'
And finally, even after the threat of this review, you had a personal offer of support from us to help you with your studies: 'I will be here to help if you change your mind.'
We're sorry you didn't find the short amount of video lectures helpful and wish you success in your ACCA studies.
All content is in bite size, you can re-pay you can ask the team a question and you get a very quick reply. Love the new ultra feature it’s given me more confidence going into the exam next week. So thank you from the bottom of my heart Richard and team

Great to hear that Ultra marking has helped boost your confidence, Anwen! 🙏
I used Acowtancy Ultra for SBR and AAA and passed both. I'm now using it for APM, and I find the marked mocks extremely useful. The short videos are well explained and help tremendously in making all concepts easy to understand and remember. Thank you, Richard!
It’s good for the first few exams, once you move to advanced level it really does lack the number of exercises and worked examples to be able to pass. Word of advice avoid acowtancy at professional level

Hi Monia, sorry you feel that way. It's not actually factually correct, however. Did you subscribe to aCOWtancy Premium or Ultra which includes ALL the recent past ACCA Exams with exercises and exam practice questions which are marked for feedback and improvement, or did you just use the FREE resources? We can't see you on our system as a Premium student, so perhaps you should try to use the subscription to the Classroom which has fantastic pass rates and student success. Thanks
