Switching is a letter.
We write it.

Most clients are not first-timers. They are tired. You name the firm. We take the handover, and the first three months are on us if you switch this quarter.

On us, if you switch this quarter

4

Steps. You do one of them

14

Days, typical handover

If any of these are true, stay long enough to finish this page

01

The fee crept. The work did not.

You are paying a small fortune for a PDF in April and silence the rest of the year.

02

They add jargon. You hired them to remove it.

Uncertainty is why you pay an accountant. If they add to it, leave.

03

You feel like one in a long list.

A busy firm is not an excuse for a nameless queue. Same person. Same number.

Four steps. We do three of them.

You name the firm. We write the letter, collect the file, and put a named accountant on the calendar.

You do this once

01

You name the firm

Name, email if you have it, and what is mid-flight, a VAT quarter, a payroll, a year end.

We do the rest

  1. 02

    We send the letter

    Professional courtesy, not a fight. File, software, outstanding work.

  2. 03

    Records land. Software is ours.

    We join as the adviser. Paper files get scanned.

  3. 04

    You are live

    Named accountant. Same-day replies before 4pm. Next three deadlines in the diary.

Lands on the desk. Status starts at “new”. We write the letter. Mid-year is normal.

The things people worry about, answered

Occasionally they are slow. They are not allowed to hold the file hostage. We chase, professionally, until it moves.

They will notice the new agent code. That is the point. Deadlines do not reset. We pick them up.

Your current firm’s name, your company or UTR, and a yes. We draft the rest.

Yes. Mid-year is normal. We take the year-to-date and keep the software running.

Both offices

One number. Whichever desk you land on.
