Nixon Williams accoutancy fees rise

[boxingbantz]

Nice surprise when I checked into my bank this morning - £114 taken instead of the £90 that I have been paying for the past six months! I know it was due to rise but to £114 inclusive of VAT? Struggling to see how this makes sense or is fair when, on the website, their fees are being advertised for £95+VAT which, if my maths are to be believed, is £99.75?

Anyone from Nixon Williams able to comment on this rise and why no prior notification was given to me?

[MonzaMike]

Maths is your strong point is it?

..hope this is a wind up...

Have you actually thought to contact the people you are paying to ask them rather than complaining on a public forum?

Well, that depends on what you think the current rate of VAT is?

If you think it's 5% then your maths are fine.
If you think it's 20% then your maths aren't fine.

He needs to get a good account it seems. With maths like that I think even at the higher price NW is providing a life saving service

Could this thread please be deleted? Clearly my calculations were wrong.

[mudskipper]

Please can this thread be preserved for posterity? A sticky maybe?

Yes of course it can be deleted.

But it won't be....

You never know, VAT may be 5% one day and his maths won't look so bad

I will be leaving NW if this is true, regardless of how bad the ops maths is.

Can someone recommend an accountant that doesn't take the piss?
