Happy Bloody Christmas from the HMRC

[d000hg]

Don't have an accountant, do it all myself, why give money to someone else when a bit of research and a question or two on here can achieve the same result for free.

I think this thread answers that question.

Not necessarily, if moneys owed I can find out just the same as an accountant, they might be able to do it a bit quicker but if I owe them money I am in no rush to pay them.

Will have to wait till I get back home to see the letter and go through my old paperwork.

Good grief, all this quibbling over a mere £90. Call yourself a contractor? Just send them a cheque, and damn their impudence!

Oh and another benefit of having a reputable accountant is that it will save you endless hassle from HMR&C enquiries and investigations and so forth. To them, a contractor who does their own accounts is "outside the system" and as such highly suspect.
