      Learn to spell before you 'embarass' yourself anymore as well, like someone said earlier you might bend over and take it I won't!

          When something seems to good to be true.....

          Look, it's pretty clear that a reputable 'advisor' would have clarified 'what' the money was first.

          So either he did not ask that question, or the OP misunderstood him when he did ask that question.

          Without a transcript, we can only take the OP's word for it.

          How did he break the 'news' to you!

          Did it just appear in a worked calculation? Or did he phone you and say 'by the way you didn't tell me you hadn't paid your Corp tax yet'?

                OP. You may be a complete chump when it comes to tax matters but you've got the hang of this forum quickly.
                What happens in General, stays in General.
                You know what they say about assumptions!

                    however, he is correct.

                    He can easily have assumed you already thought of the 20% CT liability as you have an accountant.

                    Hey what about VAT! I'm surprised you aren't complaining that you also owe VAT...

                    If you told me you had 100k in "your" account I would also assume that you have already paid all CT and VAT and were looking at a way to get at the 100k.

                    he overcharged. but most of this looks like misunderstanding on your part.
                    Exactly. Maybe the guy is a conning dog but hes surely going to assume the £100K is not money already due for CT and VAT....

                      No he hasn't. He is allowed to make himself look a dick in prof forums but can't

                      Rich coming from me huh!
