EAS EU & UK Compliance
The reviews for the EAS Shopify App showcase a mix of positive and negative feedback. On the positive side, many users praise the seamless setup process, excellent customer service, and efficient handling of tax compliance issues. Customers appreciate the quick response times, helpful guidance, and overall ease of use of the app. Additionally, the team at EAS is commended for their professionalism and dedication to assisting users with EU and UK compliance. However, there are also negative reviews highlighting issues with billing accuracy, unresponsiveness to inquiries, and dissatisfaction with the customer service received. Some users reported challenges with communication, invoicing, and unresolved billing issues.
I cannot recommend this company. After experiencing carrier double-billing errors, I chose not to reach out to them for a resolution simply because their customer support had been so unhelpful in the past. Beyond the poor service, they charged unlawful interest on disputed invoices. When challenged, their 'COO' was highly unprofessional and argumentative in our email exchange, eventually escalating to threatening my business. An incredibly unethical operation.
We informed EAS in writing in January that we had switched to a UK fulfilment centre and asked what needed to be changed. The only answer was "let's have a call". In February EAS themselves confirmed our store setup needed to be reset - it never happened. Instead, the app kept auto-charging per-order import fees for months, in June even including our own free-of-charge replacement orders. On top, we are in an HMRC verification of a VAT return EAS filed, and our request for the filing working papers has received nothing but auto-replies for a week. Support responsiveness and billing accuracy are not what you need from a tax compliance provider. I will update this review if EAS resolves the billing and provides the documents.
We asked to meet promptly to confirm the fulfilment-model change and complete any required store-side adjustments, but did not receive a response for several months. We remain ready to resolve the remaining questions directly and provide the requested documentation. Changes to a merchant’s business or fulfilment model require timely communication so we can maintain accurate compliance. EAS automates the process, so we normally do not need to contact merchants; however, when clarification or changes are needed, we ask for information or a meeting to ensure the service remains correct. EAS does not have active access to a merchant’s store. This is why we need to meet with customers: to discuss the changes required and, where appropriate, obtain access to implement them during or following the discussion. The charges referred to as “import fees” relate to UK VAT treatment of low-value consignments, which is handled similarly for domestic and cross-border supplies. Based on the circumstances at the time, this did not create an immediate compliance issue. The required store changes were limited to removing certain manual operations, which we completed despite the extended lack of response.
0 stars. I cancelled their service within a few hours, yet they still kept sending me invoices for payment. When I raised a complaint, one of their employees responded in a very rude and unprofessional manner. I was also told that if I paid the invoice, I would receive a full refund — which clearly showed there was never any real overdue payment issue in the first place. Since I chose not to pay, I expected the invoice to be written off. Instead, they are now chasing me again for payment. Terrible customer service, poor communication, and a completely unacceptable experience. I would not recommend this company to anyone.
Upon receiving your registration and completed onboarding questionnaire, EAS filed your official EU IOSS registration with the tax authority, a formal, government-level process that remains legally active for two months following cancellation. Alongside this, we configured your Shopify store, provided onboarding support, and processed an IOSS-liable order through your account. The invoice was issued because this work was completed in full before your cancellation request. We accept that the communication during your complaint was not handled to the standard we hold ourselves to, and we are addressing that internally. In good faith, we waived the two-month termination fee and eventually promised waive the existing invoice - which we simply forgot to do. The reminder was automatic and deserves no such outburst nor foul language to our emails. We are sorry the experience did not reflect what the majority of our customers receive. If you would like to discuss the matter directly, you are welcome to reach us at [email protected].
Excellent experience. Setup was seamless and done for me within 24 hours. Highly recommended.
