What do I get with the Privacy Package Service? – Companies Made Simple - Help Centre

The Privacy Package offers a broad range of services which helps keep your company looking professional at the same time as protecting your personal address from appearing online:

Protect your own address

Every company’s registered office is automatically published on the Public Register, for anyone to see. This is a legal consequence of running a limited company and it cannot be removed. Because this information is public, it is taken by credit checking agencies and data list companies who sell your address to marketers and junk mailers.

If you use a residential address as the registered office, nothing is in place to stop unexpected visitors turning up on your doorstep. Use our London address to keep your address private.

Protect your directors, shareholders, secretaries and people with significant control (PSCs)

All company officers must provide an address, known as a ‘service address’, where they can be contacted. By law, this information is automatically published on the Public Register and cannot be removed.

By using an officer’s residential address as their service address, it opens the possibility of the officer being targeted. Not only could someone identify your company’s address, but they could specifically look up your directors and shareholders by name and find their addresses too.

Increase your credibility with a prestigious London address

In business, first impressions count a great deal. Using your home address can make you look unprofessional and potentially damage your reputation. Our central London address greatly improves your corporate identity, creating trustworthiness and increasing your credibility.

We scan your mail and filter out junk

Your Privacy Package includes Mailbox Standard, free for your first month.

Here’s what’s included:

All your business mail is securely received and scanned, then uploaded to your online mailbox so you can view it quickly from anywhere.
If you need a physical copy, you can request mail forwarding directly from your mailbox once the scan is available.
Unsolicited junk mail is filtered out, so you only see important, relevant correspondence for your company.

This makes managing your business mail simple, fast, and easy — without relying on a physical office address.

Perfect if you live in a rented property

If you are in temporary accommodation and need to move, using our address can save the inconvenience of changing your address details - and stationery!

Similarly, many rental agreements prevent the use of the rented address as a registered office. If not explicitly prevented, permission must be sought from the landlord which can be difficult to get.

Ideal for non-UK residents

A UK limited company must have a UK based registered office. Using our central London address ensures your company is compliant and you can continue business as usual, wherever you are in the world.
