Welcome to Keren Shmuel

Finally after 52 days HSBC have reopened our bank account.

We are now firing again on all four cylinders and hoped to provide an even better service with our updated website and new Telephone Access Service.

We are proud to announce our unique telephony service which allows Clients and Charities to interrogate their accounts at any time 365/24/7 via a telephone or mobile.

Clients can check their balances, hear a mini statement, order voucher books and check the status of a voucher.

Charities can track multiple vouchers.

A new client dashboard has been added to make access to key account information even easier.

You can also view/print filtered lists of Gift-Aid or Company donations in the last financial year for Self Assessment or Company Accounts submissions.

The connection from your browser to ks377.org is now protected by an SSL certificate. This means all data between your browser and the ks377.org website is encrypted.

Our VPS hosting service was inadvertently removed by 123-Reg (the VPS provider) - which has caused a 10-day outage.
As 123-Reg have not been able to restore our site (and thousands of other sites) we have migrated our internet services to a new provider and at the same time upgraded and invested in a dedicated server.

Those clients using Keren Shmuel solely for the purchase of 25p voucher books will now have to pay a higher premium. As of the 1st January 2016 these accounts will be charged at 15.00%.

Therefore, a client purchasing 10 voucher books of 25p vouchers will pay £294.12 for Company, Charity or Non Gift-Aid donations. A client making a Gift-Aid donation will pay £235.29.

Last year (which has just ended) has been Keren Shmuel's busiest year with a total turnover in excess of £740,000.

There is currently a limit in force on ordering 25p voucher books. This means no-one can order more than 5 25p books until a month before Purim.

HSBC are closing their Clapton Common branch. This will cause a great inconvenience and delay in dealing with your cheques. Please consider online banking as an alternative. For our bank details contact us.
