Remember years ago when IR35 was on the horizon and I was looking for a new accountant.
Family member recommended his accountant (he was a taxi driver so I should have known his accountant wasnt suitable). So I went to see they guy and mentioned IR35 - became obvious he had no idea what I was on about. Left it with him and asked him to get back to me not holding out much hope.
Few weeks later I had bill for £400 off him. I phoned him and asked him WTF. He said this was for his time looking into IR35 and getting knowledge about it. But he could now do my accounts for some stupid figure per month.
Told him to shove it up his backside.... didnt pay.
Pretty sure the greedy git had got a whiff of contract income as discussed and he'd thought I'll have a bit of that - he can afford it. Robbing git!
