Hello
I've used an accountant for last year's tax return (December 2015).
Some months later, I logged into my Government Gateway and saw I was due a tax rebate. I have chased and chased for this. The accountant's father died in May, which is very sad, and has been used persistently as an excuse not to pay.
Finally, after eight months, I received the rebate yesterday with half deducted.
I left an angry voicemail and today I have been emailed to say that it was to cover their fees.
I understand they need paying, but I have no letter of engagement, no quote for the work done, and no invoice. Are they allowed to just do this? If not, what should I do?
Many thanks
Terri
