    That was in 2011, currently the fee is £95 + VAT.

People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance." Cicero

      For best value perhaps go to somebody small and local. A one man band who you can meet face to face. A neighbour of mine went this route and was pleased with the service.

          Nice to see PC has a handle on his finances and running them as well as his contracting career.

              Lol. You can troll NLUK like a boss by just saying your neighbour had a good local accountant. Okay, I lied. Keith actually lives 2 doors away.

                  Lol. Exquisite.

                  NLUK is not keen on freedom of speech in CUK. I recall my first ever post here in 2006. One of the first replies came from NLUK, giving me an absolute rocket for daring to ask a question on the forum. He gives the same performance at regular intervals, grab some popcorn and watch him go. Yes really!!!!

                    It's also quite sad you think it automatically isn't.
                    Most accountants in practice started out as one man bands and later might form a partnership. Messrs Peat, Marwick, Kerr and Pannell to name a few. If they're an ACA there's an excellent chance they'll know what they're doing. That is a qualification they don't just hand out to all and sundry.

                    Meantime remind me of your business model? Do you have a heavily-staffed consultancy....or are you in fact a one man band?
                    I'm a smug bastard.

                      It's based on a number of posts for him over time so I don't automatically think it. Its based on past history.

                      They probably handed it out to Darren Upton and certainly to my last one man band who just wasn't interested in contractors and let me down badly.

                      It's based on a model some guy down my road uses and he's quite happy with it.
