If your company is registered at the same address as businesses facing enforcement proceedings, it will certainly do nothing for your reputation. Fortunately, this will never happen with us, so you can put such worries out of your mind.
Virtual offices did not always enjoy the best reputation. This was largely down to fraudsters, who used them chiefly to hide from the authorities. Today the situation is many times better. We can confirm this from our own experience, as we keep records of applicants whose requests for a registered address we have had to turn down. In the first few months of 2019 alone, there were more than 20 such companies.
Trust, but verify
We vet every new order individually, and thanks largely to information freely available online, we are able to identify suspicious companies fairly quickly.
Orders from companies that fall short of our standards are cancelled automatically. We take the same approach with existing clients should we discover any fraudulent activity. Our aim is to work with honest business owners, and it matters to us that our existing clients know they are in good company.
Safe in your mailbox, too
We treat your mailbox with the same care, keeping a close eye on fraudsters who try to reach you through the post. All incoming mail intended for scanning passes through an anti-spam check. Any item we are 100% certain could harm you or your business goes straight to the shredder. Last year alone we disposed of several thousand spam items in this way, protecting our clients from fraudulent invoices.
Virtual offices are a sensible choice for entrepreneurs who do not need a physical office for their work (trainers, programmers and others). They allow them to keep costs to a minimum while securing essential services. We believe that a reputable provider should pay close attention to the kind of companies it serves and allows to use its address.
