Whoop, finally had them late last week. Had to send a snotty e-mail - e-mail wasn't acknowledged, but got the drafts through shortly after.

I've largely been emptying the account of available dividends (after pension contribution) each quarter (my personal circumstances are such that I don't need top retain a warchest of any note in the company) so I've not had that much dosh sloshing around in the company account. I haven't made the effort to find a business savings account as a result, but I guess I have just presumed that I won't get much more than 05. to 1% on amounts under £50k - is that a reasonable assumption?

However I doubt I'll need details beyond that files at CoHo, and after three changes of accountant in as many months, the local-ish office being closed, a suggested salary that took no notice of MyCo's current setup and projected earnings and having to keep reminding them to do stuff, I had rather lost interest in their services, hence the move away. Shame really, they used to be really good, now they are just another corporate generalised service provider.

Hmmm... They had all my numbers in early January. final accounts were filed at CoHo in early April and I still don't have the hard copies.
Any wonder I use a different accountant now?Last edited by Contractor UK; 18 August 2021, 10:21.

SJD do have a four week guarantee, once all info is received they will have draft accounts over to you, if not you are entitled to a refund on your month's fee.

Originally posted by Lambert Simnel View PostJust for balance, I'd note that I'm very happy with the turnaround I received from SJD. Just over 4 weeks from submission of the relevant files to them to having an agreed & signed-off set of accounts - and two weeks of that was me questioning various things which weren't (with one exception) actually changed. CT submitted to Phil Hammond esq. 8 months early, to receive a super-generous 0.5% interest from my friends at the Revenue (I'd not be getting any interest on it sitting in my company account).
