    Can somebody recommend a good accountant?

    I am an IT contractor. Need somebody to double check what my current accountant has cooked up in the past year and take me on going forward. Happy to pay upto £150/month.

    PS. DNS accountants - stay away from these guys.

    If only we had a huge thread that was sticked at the top of a useful part of the forum like the Accounting Section.

        There are other accountants who aren't displayed on the list that have a reasonable history with readers of this forum...

            Not yet. I did recommend them to a friend who is using them, and they're happy with the service.
            I'll likely swap to them when my current local accountant raises their price next year

              So you’ve recommended them twice now based on what exactly?

              I’m sure they’re probably just fine but I wouldn’t be doing any favours recommending them without any direct experience.

              But thanks for the input...

                Here's how it played out ...

                A friend wanted recommendations for an accountant
                I gave them a list of 5 and suggested speaking to each one
                They decided to go with Maslins
                Roll forward a while, they are happy with the service
                If I happen to be looking for a new accountant, Maslins would be on my list based on feedback from a few sources

                And, as the OP wanted a recommendation, and didn't appear to want to read a dedicated sticky about accountant recommendation, I gave them one. HTH
