Acquisitions often bring a mix of excitement and uncertainty. If you're a customer, you might be wondering how the TaxScouts acquisition will affect the service that you've come to rely on. You're not alone in these concerns. Change, especially in financial services, can be unsettling.

What is actually happening with the TaxScouts take over?

So far, all we know is that Europe based giants TaxFix have signed a deal to acquire TaxScouts. What many people are wondering is how this will affect TaxScouts’ existing customers. 

While no official changes have been confirmed, notable differences exist between the companies: 

  • TaxScouts boasts a higher TrustPilot rating of 4.8 compared to TaxFix's 3.8, 
  • TaxFix operates predominantly in Europe versus TaxScout's London base,
  • And a considerable difference in size.

With some clear contrasts between their businesses, though nothing is set in stone, many customers are wondering about impending changes on the horizon.
