Customer Referrals

I was not happy with my prior ‘tax preparer’, who said they could fix our tax issues. Unfortunately, they created such a mess that we are still trying to resolve them 4 years later. Fortunately, my very intelligent wife found DC Accounting in the Clipper Newspaper, so she called him, and was very impressed with the prompt reply. I have a busy schedule, so he made time to meet me at my house to go over our tax issues. To date, he has found over $15,000 of misplaced tax payments, which we are looking forward to having refunded. Initially after reading the reviews, I was skeptical as they seemed to too good to be true. Needless to say, they are legitimate referrals as we have experienced the same quality service, knowledgeable staff, and much lower fees than my prior ‘tax preparer’. He made sure we understood what was going on, what CRA was telling us, and how to resolve all our tax issues. We look forward to using him in the future and would highly recommend giving Dave a call.
- Carey and Sheri Keneer (Oakbank,MB)

Dave has been a great help through a very difficult time. I appreciate his commitment, his very professional manner and his financial advice with both personal and business accounting. I would definitely recommend him to others.
- Elaine Fletcher Allwright (Ontario)

This letter is a thank you in appreciation for all the information you have given us. Also a thank you for all the time you spent helping us with our tax returns. I don’t think we could have handled our problems without your support. Again, the BeauHead Senior Center applauds you for donating your time with your ability to help our non profit organization.
- Board of BeauHead Senior Center (Beausejour, MB)

DC accounting is a notch above the rest. The service is quick and affordable with no sacrifice to the quality offered. (Dave Cole) is a true professional who does the job right and is very informative. We as a business are very happy to be a client of DC Accounting and would recommend their services for both businesses and personal accounts.
- Jason Druet, owner JD Interlock and Landscapes (Winnipeg, MB)

We retained DC Accounting (Dave Cole) to assess, advise, and ultimately complete a few years worth of Corporate tax returns. Dave was incredibly responsive, and lighting fast. He would often send emails throughout the evening proving his dedication to what he does. We found his fees to be appropriate for the level of service he provided. I would not hesitate to recommend.
- Cory Kloos, owner Red Seal Builders Inc. (Winnipeg, MB)

My husband and I are very pleased with Dave’s services as he is helpful and efficient. He applied a tax credit which we were eligible for, and furthermore, was able to go back to 2010 which made a substantial difference. We are confident in his work and will continue to use his services. We highly recommend Dave.
- Linda and Mel Gmiterek (Beausejour, MB)

In my business trust is paramount, I need to make sure that when I work with an accountant they will care about the client as much as I do. Working with DC Accounting, I can say without hesitation that Dave will go the extra mile to make sure his client’s are taken care of. When I develop an investment plan for a client based on capital preservation and tax efficiency, I need to have confidence that the clients accountant is current on tax rules and accurate on his returns, Dave is both. I would be more than happy to sit down with any DC Accounting clients to develop a plan with them. Please speak to Dave for my contact information.
- Ken Chalmers B. Admin RRC, Investment Advisor - CIBC Wood Gundy (Garson, MB)

Our company was pleased to have Dave referred to us by a key employee. We contacted Dave, and within hours…and I mean just a few hours, he was fixing our accounting issues and getting our corporate tax returns in full order. He is pleasant, timely, ACCURATE and has great rates. We couldn’t ask for anything more! Dave will now be referred to all my business contacts and friends with no hesitations.
Looking forward to many years, we are extremely pleased with DC Accounting service and glad we made the change!
- Andy Meyer, owner of Arpin Meyer Construction Services Ltd. (Lockport, MB)

I emailed Dave to enquire about his services and he replied within a couple of hours. We had worked with our prior accountant that who had discouraged us from using more up to date accounting systems and I seemed to be always stressing out with almost everything that had to do with our small business. I finally decided to make a change. I was really nervous about the change and wondered what kind of problems I would run into next. The prior accountant said changing from a Sole-Proprietorship to Ltd company was a lot of work, but with Dave’s help the transition wasn’t bad. He came to my office for our first initial meeting which was very helpful. Made me feel very relieved and comfortable with the new program and the transition our business was making. I had a question a few hours after he left and he texted me back right away with the answers. We are looking forward to working with him and making things a lot easier for us.
- Shannon and Shaun Amos, owners of Amos Plumbing Ltd. (Rennie, MB)

I was in a tough situation with my small company and every accounting firm I talked to had no real interest in me, telling me it would cost thousands of dollars more than what I had just for them to deal with me. Then I found Dave’s ad on kijiji where he described my exact situation and how he can help people like me. Contacting Dave to do my corporate income tax was the best move I ever could have made. Not only did he resolve my situation in only a few days, his rates were extremely reasonable and he explained everything to me when the process was done! He saved me thousands of dollars and is a great guy to work with. I highly recommend him for anyone in need of a corporate accountant!
- Clayton Rumley, Digifi Inc, (Selkirk, MB)

I recommend DC Accounting to anyone. He is prompt, thorough and takes the time to explain your taxes. He personally dealt with CRA on my behalf which made things a lot easier for me. Stop worrying and give Dave a call or text. He will take good care of you. He cured my tax pain.
- Jonathan Racette (Winnipeg, MB)

I am writing this letter on behalf of Brokenhead Outreach for Seniors and myself to thank you for volunteering your valuable time to help Pat Horsley our Community Resource Coordinator and myself (Treasurer) to set up the Quick Books start program on our new Treasurer’s computer. I greatly appreciated the time you took to explain and assist with the set up for us. I had tried before to set it up but did not get the result I required. I hope all will go well from here on in. Thank you as well for making us feel free to contact you in the future for any assistance we may require. You taught me a lot.
- Pat Johnson, Brokenhead Outreach for Seniors (Beausejour, MB)

We were in need of a new accountant as ours had to retire due to health concerns and as anyone knows, if you’ve ever needed to find a new accountant, it’s as difficult as finding a Doctor you can trust. We were fortunate enough to see the ad in the local ‘Clipper’ newspaper with Dave’s ad, and he immediately made time for us. He finished our small business taxes so promptly that we were taken aback as we were not used to this level of service. We would highly recommend Dave and we will continue to use his services in the future.
- Kelly Pageot and Armand Jerome (Beausejour, MB)

This was the first year that my husband and I went to Dave to have our taxes done. Dave was very knowledgeable and actually took the time to explain what he was doing and additional items we could claim. After I discovered some missing items to claim on past annual returns, Dave fit me in right away and revised previous filed income taxes and I will be getting quite a nice refund! I can’t say enough good things about Dave and would recommend him to anyone and everyone!
- M. Chorney (Beausejour, MB)

My husband and I recently moved to Manitoba from Ontario and were looking for a accountant to do our business and personal taxes. I saw DC Accounting’s ad in the Clipper and gave them a call. Our taxes were done quickly, Dave came right to the house to talk to us, he picked up all our information and filed our taxes. Everything was looked after without even having to leave our house. When the Notice of Assessments came back, he took the time to make sure we understood those as well. We recommend DC Accounting to anyone who wants their taxes done quickly and efficiently.
- Carey and Sherri Keneer (Oakbank, MB)

We have been doing our own taxes for years. This year we decided to have a professional complete our returns, to ensure we were not missing anything. We’re glad we did! Dave’s professionalism, speed, and knowledge made going to a professional an easy decision. We won’t hesitate to use DC Accounting in the future!
- Ryan and Polly Dunne (Oakbank, MB)

Dave Cole is awesome!
I was so far behind that I didn’t even know where to begin… Within days all my tax issues were addressed, resolved and filed. As a private person, I do not like my personal details and information floating about. I trust that whatever information I share with Dave will be kept private and confidential. That is very important to me. Because of Dave’s professionalism and knowledge I will be a returning client and am happy to refer friends and family to him.
- P. Wilke (Ladywood, MB)

I have used Dave’s service for the last two years and without a doubt have never had such good service like this…I am now living in Saskatchewan but continue to give him my business because he has earned it with friendly and exceptionally fast service….thanks Dave
- Brad Yeske (Saskatoon, SK)

We met Dave Cole through family and were immediately impressed by his flexibility (both regarding his schedule and venue at which he was able to meet). He prepared our personal taxes efficiently, accurately and to our satisfaction. Dave is trustworthy, knowledgeable and reliable, answering questions which arose as we began the process of starting our own business. We will continue to put our personal and business accounting needs into Dave’s capable hands. It is clear that he puts his clients first.
- Robin Plouffe-Hingley and Rob Hingley (Winnipeg, MB)

After many years of running a manufacturing company that has been incorporated since 1994, we came to find out that our previous accountant (one of The Big 4) had neglected to file corporate returns for the company since incorporation, but instead put all the income on our personal return at a much higher tax rate. Unfortunately, this had gone on for over 18 years! We knew something was out of sorts, but didn’t know what because we are not accountants and trusted “the big firm” as we had paid a lot of money for their services. After much stress and anxiety, we began searching for another accountant that was closer to our home and business. We will never regret the day that Dave came to our house for that first initial visit and took a tremendous burden off our shoulders. Dave is so professional, easy going, personable and the work he performs is unbelievable. Dave has managed to get the last 10 years sorted out in a very short amount of time. Unfortunately CRA says the first 8 years are too far back, otherwise those would have been fixed also. We are now back on track with our company and personal returns and sleep so much better knowing that everything is resolved. His fees are very reasonable, especially for the all hours he is available to a client. Every time I called or text Dave, I knew I would get a reply usually within minutes, no matter if it was days, weekends, or evenings. We don’t even know where to start to show our gratitude, but to say we strongly recommend DC Accounting!Thank you Dave, you truly are a remarkable man!
- Dale and Kelly Bourns, owners of Daemar Industries Inc. (Dugald, MB)

We use DC Accounting for all of our business and personal needs, and has been nothing but the best. When I handed over a mess of paperwork he was able to sort through it in a short period of time. It took him days to finish our corporate return & less than 24 hours for our personal return. He is speedy in returning text messages and phone calls, even during non regular business hours.
Dave is fast, reliable and very reasonably priced and I’ve been nothing but impressed.
- Jim & Tina Irving, owners of Irving Aggregates Ltd, Brokenhead Redi-Mix & Supply Ltd and Jim Irving Transport (Beausejour, MB)

Thank you Dave for doing our taxes! You were fast, reliable, and trustworthy, all for a great price! We will defiantly stick with you for the years to come.
- Ed and Carina Jansen, (Winnipeg, MB)

I searched online looking for a highly recommended professional to do my personal tax return and I found dcaccounting.ca website. This website was unknown to me, but I was impressed reading the testimonials from other satisfied clients. I sent a text to book an appointment, and received a prompt response. As it is tax season, I expected to wait a while to get my taxes done. I never expected my tax return to be done within 24 hours! Now, that’s superior service! The professionalism, convenience, efficiency, knowledge and most importantly honesty made me a very happy and satisfied client! I, too have highly recommended Dave to my family and friends. Should you want top notch tax service from someone who is professional, knowledgeable, efficient, convenient and honest, Dave is “the guy” to see!!
- Sandra D., (Winnipeg, MB)

Thank you Dave for your professionalism. It was really great to meet you. Dave is extremely knowledgeable as well as easy going to talk with. We highly recommend Dave at DC Accounting and will definitely be returning clients.
- Laura and Ed Koster, (Anola, MB)

Dave excels in his approach to doing business. He comes to our office and does his best to accommodate our methods and timelines. He cuts through the inessential and applies realistic strategies to make bookkeeping and tax time less of a chore. Throughout the year he’s also quick to answer all manner of questions related to accounting and taxes. We’re impressed by his level of service, speed, pricing, and flexibility. His friendly, respectful manner further cements a positive working relationship.
Dave, thank-you for all that you do.
- Sandra Cote, Sanco Construction Ltd/Nascom Properties Inc. (Garson, MB)

After my previous accountant retired, I was looking for a corporate accountant for my small business. After interviewing sub standard candidates with minimal experience in corporate accounting (basically bookkeepers), I thought I would have to head off to one of the large accounting firms.
Then I found Dave. Personable, enthusiastic, extremely knowledgeable with a consultative approach, quick and accurate, at a fee that is a fraction of the larger firms.
I highly recommend the DC Accounting team!
- Terry B., owner of After Six Group Inc. (Birds Hill, MB)

Thanks so very much for the wonderful, competent and speedy work you did on my taxes. Making the first phone call was a nerve wracking experience. Within the first 5 minutes on the phone with you I knew I had made the BEST call I could ever have made. What I thought was going to be a complicated, messy few weeks turned into barely a few hours with GREAT news at the end!
Taxes won’t ever be an issue or concern of mine, or anyone that I encourage to use your services.
Thank you SO very much.
- Dorothy M (Beausejour)

Thanks to Dave for the fast and thorough preparation of my Corporate and personal taxes. He was always available for my questions and concerns and meeting me at my business was very convenient for me – something that my previous Accounting Service was unwilling to do. Dave is very knowledgeable in accounting and tax preparation – so much so that I will trust him for all my accounting and tax preparation requirements in future years. Not only that; his fees are 1/3 of what my previous Accounting Service charged me.
So if anyone needs Accounting/Tax Preparation services I highly recommend Dave – he will put your mind at ease as he did for me. He really exceeded my expectations.
- Tom Jeroski, Owner Mr Whizard Technical Services (Oakbank)

Dave (DC Accounting)… you exceeded my expectations. I had my doubts about seeing someone new for my personal taxes but you put my mind at ease and came through for me, my son and a few of my friends. Your rates are great, you’re eager to please, friendly, fast and efficient at what you do! You were awesome to answer every question I shot at you and the best part is you were willing to meet me in my area of town. Thank you Dave and I look forward to meeting with you next tax season over a Timmies coffee!
PS: I will continue to pass your good name around to more Friends, Family and Colleagues 😀
- Julie Martens (Winnipeg)

Thanks so much for the fantastic work you did Dave! We have been looking for a trustworthy accountant for a few years now and I am glad to have worked with you. Fast, friendly and very reasonable fee for a great return! Thanks again!
- Adam Cheadle (Winnipeg)

I highly recommend Dave’s services. He made it a stressless task to get my taxes done after a few years of forgetting to file. He also made all the numbers make sense. He’s definitely someone very reliable to have taking care of your taxes. I also highly recommend him to younger taxpayers and first time taxpayers as he will explain everything and answer any curiosities you may have so you will have a better understanding of the tax filing process.
- James McDonald (Winnipeg)

We were so impressed with Dave’s punctuality regarding our corporate, business and personal tax returns. Having being used to waiting months to have taxes done, he was a breath of fresh air. Another great plus was Dave’s personal touch, his friendliness, and great rates. We highly recommend him.
- Victor and Susan Wollman (Beausejour)

First and foremost I want to personally thank you (and DC Accounting) for the opportunity and chance to have raced with you (and MMSRA) over the years. Your hard work and dedication doesn’t go unnoticed. I can honestly say that had you not been involved with the racing from day 1, we probably wouldn’t have made it as far as we did. You are a great ambassador for the sport (of kids snowmobile racing). Please keep up the hard work. People such as yourself are often under appreciated and overlooked. From my family to yours, we thank you.
- Todd and Terry Hrechkosy (Beausejour)

Arranging that 1st meeting with Dave to discuss the concerns we were having regarding our long overdue tax returns was the best thing we could have ever done! He was willing to meet at our home and this sure relieved some of the stress we were already experiencing. Dave shared his credentials with us, then discussed the approach he was prepared to take, along with a timeline to get this going in the right direction. Right from the start, we had that good gut feeling about this man. Dave is professional and friendly in every way and very confident in his abilities.
If you are in the similar situation as many of us have been, Dave Cole is a man of his word & you can be assured that he will get the job done. It has been a pleasure to have met him and and now our stress levels have decreased greatly. Thanks again Dave.
- Bill M. (Winnipeg)

Our organization was so pleased to have you support The Amazing Race – Springfield Sports Club Edition 2012. In addition to your financial contribution to the event, your advice and suggestions were invaluable. Your commitment to sport & recreation in our community is second to none. Our club thanks you and we look forward to working with you again in the future.
- Springfield Sports Club (Oakbank)

The moment I met Dave I felt comfortable and relaxed. His approach was not intimadating and his confidence and reassurances were just what I needed! Owning a restaurant and lounge has kept me quite busy and over the years and I had let my back office pile up, and was feeling overwhelmed with paper work. This had me quite stressed. Dave is very personable and understanding, and he assured me he could get me caught up to date. As promised, Dave was very prompt and pro active in meeting all of my deadlines. He even had me filed early for the first time this past year! If your looking for an efficient and reasonably priced accountant, I highly recommend Dave.
- Nicole Reimer - Co-Owner of Maple Bistro and The Red Cactus Lounge (Winnipeg)

The phrase used by DC Accounting for their email; “We Can Help” is just what I needed. Help! As most small business owners know, doing your books rated pretty low on the priority list, later was always my excuse. Well, later became a couple of years! I needed help. Dave was just the ticket. He fit me in right away and within in a couple of weeks time brought me right up to date. He was willing to meet with me pretty much anytime, anywhere — at my business, via online and texting, while I was running errands,and at my home. And even on a holiday weekend so that Revenue Canada would get their deadline met. Thanks Dave. I would definitely recommend your services to others who also need help!
- Connie Maes - Owner of Town Bake Shop and Ice Cream Inc. (Oakbank)

We would like to thank you for your kind and ever so generous donation of funds and time to our first Amazing Race Challenge hosted in Beausejour and surrounding areas. Without your donation we would never have been able to reward the 60 competitors for all their hard work. We are happy to say the 2012 Beausejour and Area Amazing Race was a great success and will be carried on for years to come. We thank you again for your generosity and hope that you will choose to be involved again in 2013.
- Amazing Race Committee - BRRDC (Beausejour)

Working with Dave was a pleasure. He is both prompt and clear in his communications. He is dedicated to his business and does what it takes to help his clients.
- Cameron Bayley - Owner of HalfDroid.com (Winnipeg)

After years of waiting to have my Corporate Tax Returns filed by my previous accountant, then to find out they had done very little because it was such a large and intimidating task, I hired DC Accounting to do the job. Dave not only was eager to help, but finished all the outstanding Corporate Returns within weeks!! No Joke. Professional, friendly and reasonably priced – everything we wanted in an accountant. I thought so highly of his work I asked him to do my Personal Tax Returns as well and some how I received a nice size return.
Thanks DC Accounting!
- Gary Monkman - Owner of Adventure Education Manitoba (Winnipeg)

I’ve found so many other accounting firms unfriendly. Dave is fantastic with clients. He helped me understand all of the process, and was very fast with the turnaround for my taxes. As a new business owner, I was glad to have Dave on board. In fact he handled all of my families tax needs the same way. Dave Cole will get you to the finish line, with a smile. Thanks Dave.
- Jim Temple - prior Owner of Springfield Taxi (Oakbank)

After the run around we got last year from our prior accountant, there was no way we were going back to him, so it was with deep feelings that we would try another accountant from the area. Much to our pleasant surprise, Dave came to bat, he was prompt, very efficient, and cost less than last year. It is a pleasure in this day and age to deal with an individual like this, and we would highly recommend him to anyone.
After having my family members do my taxes for years, I decided to try Dave and in the first time in years I received money back. Dave’s price was reasonable and even though I left it till the last minute, his service was prompt. Thanks Dave.
- Louise Danis (Selkirk)

Dave has fulfilled my expectations compared to prior accountants. His work performed has always been completed on a timely manner. Dave takes pride in all he does and his rates do not compare to my prior Accountants as their rates were more costly.
All in all, for all that Dave has done for Spiers Transport Ltd, I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an Accountant. Should you require any other questions answered, please free to contact me directly.
- Willy Spiers - Owner of Spiers Transport (Winnipeg)

You can feel confident that Mr. Dave Cole will do your accounting accurately and make sure that you are getting the most for your business needs.
Mr. Cole had found a mistake in my previous filings, and I am grateful that he did find it in time as it would have affected me personally for years to come.
He is a quick, efficient and knowledgeable person in his field. I am glad that he does take the time to answer all my questions and address my concerns as the income tax system changes from year to year.
I hope this will help in your decision to hire Mr. Cole. If you have any other questions, please contact me directly.
- Shirlee Klapprat - Owner of Get It In Stone (Beausejour)

As a new business we found ourselves in trouble after using a different accountant. Dave Cole reassured us that he was knowledgeable in Real Estate accounting . He cleaned up the mess from the prior accountant and advised us the proper steps to take with the CRA . He re-prepared our income tax for the last three years and did a proposed 2012 return . We knew that we had gone with the right company when the CRA stated “Now that’s how it’s suppose to be done”. The CRA was instantly off our backs and we could get back to business! If you have any other questions, please contact me directly.
- Greg Motkaluk (Selkirk)

I recommed him to many people, could have been you also! Awesome guy comes to you! from FB-Beausejour Buy and Sell
-Stacey Breton (Beausejour, MB)

Thanks so much! And for your extreme promptness! I have already recommended you to my friends and colleagues.
- Andrea Harmatiuk (Oakbank)

Each and every review here about Dave says it all and it’s hard to describe better.
He most definitely cares about his clients and provides excellent professional service. We are so very pleased.
- G. and V. Kruger (Oakbank, MB)
