We are strictly a business to business provider
For a fixed annual fee, our qualified staff will prepare your year end accounts and your annual tax return with a minimum of fuss. We have operated a paperless office since 1 January 2008 and handle all work electronically (except in the few instances where HMRC or Companies House still require documents on paper).
There are a few prerequisites in our Ts&Cs:
• you must maintain a DropBox account so that we can share digital files.
• you must own a business which has a proper business bank account with a proper UK bank.
We will not work with pseudo bank accounts from Tide and Coconut (and similar entities), because they are not bank accounts, they are apps that belong to a company called Prepay Technologies Ltd. Monzo does not provide proper bank statements so as explained here, avoid them as well. Mettle is not a bank account, it’s an app owned by NatWest Bank and you cannot get proper bank statements out of Mettle – avoid it!
VAT at the applicable rate is added to all fees.

The Mythical One Hour Consultancy
We do not provide a one hour consultancy by telephone. Please do not ask. The hourly rates shown above are for longer one off projects, like capital gains tax planning, or business mergers & acquisitions work. If you want an accountant for only one hour you are highly unlikely to find anybody in the profession willing to offer that.
Monthly payment plan
Once agreed, fees are payable by monthly Direct Debit.
Ethos
It’s our job to keep you onside with government. We get things in on time, and we work within the rules to help you keep your tax bill down. If you cannot keep proper records, and if you do everything at the eleventh hour, then we cannot work together, you’ll need a different type of accountant. Proactive accountants work best with proactive clients.
We provide accounts and tax returns, and more importantly, we provide peace of mind.
Is that something you’d be interested in?
