    My advice, definitely move from your friends in Warrington, then look for a Free Agent compatible accountant.

        Recommended Accountants

        Hi all I am new to contracting and just having a look at this thread, I have already arranged an accountant but not sure whether they have the recommended software, just wondered what is the average you would expect to pay for this?

        Thanks.

          Ranges from £60 to £200 PCM. £100 seems to be the norm.

            Anyone signed up with 1st Online ?

            Freeagent outfit, keen prices, any feedback ?

            Cheers.

              I would agree with Xero being fantastic, however in my opinion would be overkill for the majority of contractors.

                You don't intend to support FreeAgent then?

                  So the software is geared toward what suits you rather than the client? Not a great business model IMO.

                    I'll take that as a "no" then. Shame, it's getting very popular around these parts.

                      HI, I am just about to move from umbrella to limited company and am looking for a managed accountancy provider. I've been looking at Giant, Nixon Williams and SJD - are there any recommendations please? I have been with Giant as umbrella but not sure about how good their limited company service is. Thanks
