    Average accountant price

    Hi

    I'm looking to open a limited company very soon and was just wondering what were average accountant rates? Fixed monthly fees?

    thanks

    Anywhere from £60 a month to £200 a month.

    I'd suggest you go for someone who's been personally recommended to you, or give a few people a call and see who you get on with!

      So the average is £130 a month. That makes us £25 a month cheaper than average....
      P.S. What Spreadsheet? Revolutionising the contracting market again.

        I think the £200 is thankfully something of a rarity though!

            I advise you decide on what you want from your accountant before looking at the price. Are you after face to face meetings? daily contact with a designated accountant? out to build a working relationship? or do you just need a call centre that is going to process the figures you send them at the end of each financial year.

            Different accountants provide different levels of service.

                  Give a few accountants a call and see what service they provide and what service you need and who you get on with too.

                  Also try and get one main point of contact if you can.
