    Accountants in South Wales

    Hi,
    Does anyone know of a good IT contract accountant in Newport, or Cardiff in South Wales? I'd like someone local as opposed to some of the bigger well known ones.

    I have to say I think you are making a mistake. I used a local one and he was utter tulip. I've used two of the bigger contractor accountant firms and they have been excellent. Haven't needed to see either of them in 7 years.

    Is there any particular reason you want them to be local so we can try prove to you it's not required?

    BTW SJD are in Cardiff so you get the best out of both worlds.

      Like NLUK said, you're probably making a big mistake by possibly going local. There are plenty of firms on here who are tried and tested. Their customer service is also second to none plus they're a specialized and tuned into to what contractors do.

        And, if they are useless you can come on here and slate them. That keeps them on their toes.

          Nah get one of the national ones. Mines 200+ miles away. Never even spoken to him but service is excellent.

          Beware of local people who want a slice of the pie and are clueless.....

          Theres a particularly crap one in Pontypridd. IPSE registered too (dont get me started on that one).

            Thanks guys. I used Nixon Williams a few years ago. They were fine but remote but I guess if there is no benefit then maybe use them again.

              Dunno about South Wales bit there are a lot of smaller firms throughout the UK specialising in contractors. You may get the best of both worlds: Small but expert.

                Ah, but it's not a real manned office, just one of its many pop up offices to give the pretence that it has offices all over the UK.
                "The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance." Cicero

                  Ah.. It appears you are correct. Good spot.

                    Pop up offices? A bit misleading that for someone looking for a local accountant.
