What people reported, in their own words. Every line links to where it was said.

“Bench is the worst accounting company I've ever worked with. They were the cheapest and now I see why. Your books will be late. You will not get the service you were promised. They are quick to bill you but incredibly slow to respond to the many mistakes they'll make on your books.”

“Bench sent me an email stating that they were closing the business and that anyone who had paid a fee for renewal was just SOL! I'm not joking.”
