Please confirm in writing if you are unsure.   7. OUR FEE & SETTING UP A DIRECT DEBIT.   7.1 The subject of accounting fees is obviously of interest both to us and to you. You as a client want to feel you are getting your money’s worth for the fee you pay, and we must have fees that are adequate to enable us to give a good service.   The fee we have quoted here is purely based on the information supplied from your end. If you have provided incorrect information, you are most likely to get an incorrect quote.   In much of the work we do, we are reasonably able to predict how much time it should take, and are willing to make a firm estimate of this fee in advance. Often it is impossible to predict all the problems we are likely to encounter on the job. Hence, we will let you know at the end how much time we have spent. In some cases, where the fee estimate was completely/materially incorrect, then we will update you. e.g. if we said it will take 20 hours to complete the job and when we started work, we realised it will take 150 hours, we will inform you of material change.   The fee we have agreed is based on the assumption that the payment will be made by setting up the direct debit on the link above. Where a direct debit is not setup by a customer/client, we will charge 10% fee on top of the agreed fee.   Therefore, to avoid any confusion in relation to the fee, it is necessary to setup the direct debit. If you do not have our details, please request us.   Our fee must be paid in advance for all the work that we are doing. In some cases, we may show leniency but in majority of the cases it must be paid in advance.   7.2 Our fees are based on the time necessarily spent on your affairs by the partners and staff involved. Some clients are billed at agreed intervals, and our settlement terms are as follows:   a) Our fee/invoice must be settled within 7-10 days of the invoice date or as mentioned on the invoice, or before the accounts due date (where applicable). If the accounts due date is before the invoice due date, the accounts due date will be considered as invoice due date. If the 10 day period is exceeded they are deemed overdue. If you are paying on a monthly basis, you will be invoiced on the 1st of each month and you will be paying one month in advance.   b) If fees are not settled within the due date from the fee note date, on the 7th or 10th day (or soon after the due date) the service charges will be charged at a minimum of 3% per month from the date they became overdue, or as it is written on the invoice whichever is higher. Whilst any amounts are outstanding, our firm reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to suspend the provision of all services, including services provided that are covered by separate terms of engagement. Where services are suspended all obligations attached to our firm under all terms of engagement are also suspended and no liability is accepted for consequential losses, late filing penalties, interest or other charges.   c) All fee notes/invoice shall be deemed conclusive of the sums due and payable to you under them and may not be challenged other than in writing within 10 days of your receiving the disputed fee note concerned.   d) Where you are unable to pay the invoice on the due date, we have authority/right to refer your case to debt collectors or legal team; you will be responsible to pay service charges, administration fee, debt collector’s fee (a minimum of 20% to 50% of the outstanding amount, could increase, depends on the age & value of the debt/invoice) and any other legal fee that may incur. In the event of non-payment of our fees for services rendered, we may exercise a particular right of lien over the books and records in our possession and withhold the documents until such time as payment of our fees is received in full.   e) Our fee is calculated as per the accounting year of the company (for limited companies). Say your company is setup in January and your year end is in December, and we have agreed a fee of £500 plus VAT. The fee will cover the period from January to December.   If you join us during the year, the fee for the previous months will be charged. E.g., if you are a contractor/business and your accounting year runs from January to December, Say, you joined us in the beginning of July and we have agreed a fee of £100 per month, it means your yearly fee will be £1200 a year (from January to December). Where either you will pay us six months in advance from January to June, or we will charge you £200 from July to December to cover the previous 6 months fee. And from the next January you will start paying 100 every month.   When you join during the year, or after the year, we have to do all the previous accounts & tax returns hence the above is applicable. If you are a contractor and lose your contract during the year, our fee will still be charged as we have to do the accounts for the whole year. Where you decide not to pay because of lack of funds, we may freeze the services and invoice you on pay as you go basis as per our fee schedule; therefore, it is your responsibility to confirm with us about pay as you go fee as it may be more than the contractor’s fee agreed in advance.   f) For one-off tasks, you will be requested to pay 100% in advance. But in some cased where the amount/fee is higher than £5,000, we will request 50% in advance to start the work and 50% before filing/submission. We do have the right to hold the submission where the fee is not paid in full and will take no responsibility for the late filing penalties. Where the one-off task involves undertaking work for the company or business accounting period gone, we reserve the right to charge for the full amount upfront. So, for example, if you join us in June 2021 and the company accounts are made up to end of May 2021, we would charge for the whole year up front.’If you are in your first year with us and leave part way through, our firm reserves the right to charge for the remainder of the full year’s fees’. This applies to both one-off tasks and our monthly fixed fee packages.   g) Regarding our fee, the direct debit has to be set up on the following link within 7 days of signing this agreement. Where direct debit is not set up by the client in 7days, I authorise Our firm to arrange a direct debit in place using my bank detail anytime and has right to collect the outstanding payment from my business/personal bank account, credit or debit card information our firm hold without notifying to me/client.   7.3 We enter into a trusting relationship. The director/business owner instructs us knowing their ability to meet our fees. If the Company/business is unable to pay our fees incurred from time to time for whatever reason, the directors/business owner personally accepts the liability for our charges. It is the responsibility of the director/business owner who is signing this agreement, to inform a new director (where the company is sold, transferred to some family members, etc.) about this clause that the new director/business owner will be personally liable for our fee. Moreover, Directors/business owner (existing, new) will be personally liable for any debt they owe to our firm in any case, even where the company/business is liquidated or has been struck off. We have full right to take legal action against the director/business personally, for the outstanding fee.   7.4 Should you leave during the year; you will be charged £150.00 plus VAT per hour for all the services carried out during our engagement including the initial meetings. This is usually applicable to those who do not pay on a monthly basis.   7.5 This Letter of engagement will be renewed automatically every year unless it is requested by the client. Should you want to leave Our firm for some reason, kindly inform us 28 days before leaving in writing; The entire outstanding invoice must be clear before you leave.   7.6) Our fee is usually based on the turnover & work involved. We/our system will provide you a quotation based on your requirement and the information that you have supplied to us. If your turnover goes up during the year, or you do not provide us information in the same format as agreed at the beginning, it means you will fall into a different band. Therefore, we will send you an invoice for the additional turnover & work involved. e.g., If you say your turnover is £10K a year, and you will provide us information on a software, it is implied we will quote you as per the information supplied. If the year end, your turnover is more than £50K or information is not supplied on a software, we do have right to charge you according to our fee schedule. Therefore, it is your responsibility to supply us the correct information at the beginning to get an exact quote, and to inform us during the year where your circumstances are changed.   If you need any additional services (besides what you are agreeing/signing) during the year, the same terms will automatically be applied to you and we may not ask you to sign a new agreement to save time.   8. RETENTION OF AND ACCESS TO RECORDS   8.1 During the course of our work we will collect information from you and others acting on your behalf and will return any original documents to you following the preparation of your accounts.   8.2 All Original documents will be returned to you, or must be collected within 3 months of us completing your accounts. Original documents left at our premises after this time are archived at your cost £2 per box per week. Sending us copies or electronic versions is cheaper, safer and quicker. Faxes, emails, scan documents are all acceptable. 8.3 Whilst certain documents may legally belong to you, we intend to destroy correspondence and other papers that we store which are more than seven years old, other than documents which we consider to be of continuing significance. If you require retention of any documents, you must notify us of that fact in writing.   9. QUALITY CONTROL & CONFIDENTIALITY   9.1 To ensure a rapid response and cost-effective service to you, we, on occasions, employ sub-contractors, who may work from home because of child minding requirements, or disability issues. They are appropriately qualified and provide a valuable resource to the firm.   9.2 All our staff and sub-contractors are professional and appropriately qualified. They are under a confidentiality agreement.   9.3 As part of our ongoing commitment to provide a quality service, our files are periodically subject to an independent quality review. Our reviewers are highly experienced and professional people and are, of course, bound by the same requirements of confidentiality as our principals and staff.   10. HELP US TO GIVE YOU THE RIGHT SERVICE   10.1 If at any time you would like to discuss with us how our service to you could be improved, or if you are dissatisfied with the service you are receiving, please let us know, by calling us.   10.2 We undertake to look into any complaint carefully and promptly and to do all we can to explain the position to you. If you feel that we have given you a less than satisfactory service, we undertake to do everything reasonable to address your concerns.   11. ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION   11.1 Internet communications are capable of data corruption and therefore we do not accept any responsibility for changes made to such communications after their despatch. It may therefore be inappropriate to rely on advice contained in an e-mail without obtaining written confirmation of it. We do not accept responsibility for any errors or problems that may arise through the use of internet communication and all risks connected with sending commercially sensitive information relating to your business are borne by you. If you do not agree to accept this risk, you should notify us in writing that e-mail is not an acceptable means of communication.   11.2 If correspondence is requested in paper format, the disbursement charge of £50 per year is payable to cover the handling and postage of the correspondence.   11.3 It is the responsibility of the recipient to carry out a virus check on any attachments received.   11.4 It is your responsibility to update us where you change your contact details, such as telephone number, home address, an email address or any other contact details. We will not take any responsibility where you have not updated us with any change of your personal details.   12. CONTRACTS (RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES) ACT 1999   12.1 Persons who are not party to this agreement shall have no rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of this agreement. This clause does not affect any right or remedy of any person which exists or is available otherwise than pursuant to that Act.   13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY   13.1 We will provide our professional services with reasonable care and skill. However, we will not be held responsible for any losses arising from the supply by you or others of incorrect or incomplete information, or your or others’ failure to supply any appropriate information or your failure to act on our advice or respond promptly to communications from us or other relevant authorities.   14. LATE FILING PENALTIES   14.1 There are a number of penalties for late filing of returns, etc. To ensure that we are able to meet these deadlines on your behalf, we must identify when information has to be submitted to our offices. We list below the most common requirements.   Item Due to Authorities Due to us   ·         Accounts Up to 9 months from Year end (Tax) 12 weeks from period end ·         VAT Returns By end of month following relevant 10 Days after end of period ·         SA Tax Returns By 31st October (Paper filing only) by 30th June after Year end ·         PAYE Returns By 19th May By 1st May ·         Monthly Payroll By 5th of every month by 27-28th of same month.   We will not be held responsible for any penalties arising where the information is not with us by the due date. If you are in any doubt, you should contact us to check. Further, you are requested to reply to our queries by return of post (within 3 working days). This is essential where we are close to the deadline (within 30 days).   We need at least 28 working days to complete the accounts, 14 working Days to complete the VAT returns, 4 working days to do the payroll & 21 working days to do the personal tax returns, otherwise, an additional fee will be applicable. Where you need any of them on an urgent basis, we may charge an additional fee for the extra time and effort we put in.   14.2 We send reminders most of the times before anything is due, therefore you may be getting emails and phone calls to ensure you don’t miss any deadline. It is your responsibility to provide us the requested information on time, we will not be responsible for any penalties especially where information is not provided on time from your end.   14.3 We get busy time to time; therefore, it is your responsibility to allow us a minimum time to perform the tasks as given below unless we have agreed something different in writing with you.   ·         Personal Tax Return: at least 21 working days ·         Year End Accounts: at least 28 working days ·         Payroll & PAYE: 48 Hours ·         VAT Returns: at least 14 working days   We have right to charge you an extra fee, where the above timescale is not given (despite of several reminders) to complete the tasks.

However, be in no doubt that we will always do our utmost to ensure that you are not subjected to penalties. The additional fee will still be applicable if the information is provided late and work is carried out after the deadline date because the information was sent late to us.   If you have provided us with information to complete the accounts, You will be charged for the work carried out by OUR FIRM.   14.4) ANTI MONEY LAUNDERING LEGISLATION   All accountants must comply with onerous duties imposed by the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002, the Terrorism Act 2000 and the Money Laundering Regulations 2007 (the Anti Money Laundering Legislation), which are intended to inhibit the activities of terrorists and other criminals by denying them access to technical expertise. If we fail to perform these duties, we risk imprisonment.   Before we accept your instructions, we may need to obtain ‘satisfactory evidence’ to confirm your identity. In certain circumstances, we may need to obtain evidence confirming the identities of third parties, the source of any funds or other property, the purpose of any instructions or any other matter. We may also need to obtain such evidence after we have begun to act on your instructions, we may do this by electronic means.   We assume that our clients are honest and law abiding. However, if at any time, there appear to be grounds to suspect (even if we do not actually suspect) that your instructions relate to ‘criminal property’, we are obliged to make a report to the Serious Organised Crime agency (SOCA), but we are prohibited from telling you that we have done so.   In some such circumstances, we must not act on your instructions without consent from SOCA. If SOCA does not refuse consent within seven working days we may continue to act. If SOCA issues a refusal within that time, we must not act for a further 31 days from the date of the refusal.   ‘Criminal property’ is property in any legal form, whether money, real property, rights or any benefit derived from criminal activity. It does not matter who carried out the criminal activity or how removed the property is from the original crime. Even if you are honest in your dealings, if your property represents a benefit from someone else’s crime, we must still make a report. Activity is considered ‘criminal’ if it is a crime under UK law, no matter how trivial, and whether carried out in the UK or abroad. For example, tax evasion is a criminal offence but an honest mistake is not.   15. CLIENT MONIES   15.1 We choose not to hold client monies, but, We may, from time to time, hold money on your behalf. Such money will be held in trust in a client bank account, which is segregated from the firm’s funds. If there are grounds to suspect (even if we do not actually suspect) that any monies held in a client account is derived directly or indirectly from any criminal activity whatsoever, we may not release such monies until we receive permission to do so from SOCA.   BUSINESS E-MAIL DISCLAIMER.   This email and any attachments to it may be confidential and are intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.
