    Experience with Accountancy Partnership or Crunch?

    Hey Sam, So first let it be clear that I have never got on easily with accounting. I tried to learn what I could in several modules at University but I could never recall anything and it just didn't click. @Lee Murphy and the team have been amazing, have helped me via email and phone whenever...

    Experience with Accountancy Partnership or Crunch?

    Thanks. Lee and the team at The Accountancy Partnership have been awesome so I'm confident that I made the right choice! I wasn't particularly happy with the way Crunch answered my questions, shying away from giving out any information about qualifications other than their own internal training.

    TSOHost are part of Vidahost, well both are owned by Paragon, so the support and services are all the same. Both are amazing :)

    Where to get Leads from ???

    What volumes do you require, and what price per lead do you have in mind? I could put you in touch with someone.

    Ah apologies - yes, companies like GoDaddy and Hostgator are definitely worth staying clear of :)

    In the market for a new hosting.. but who?

    Mass market selling? I used to get reply messages to my support requests from Dom and Seb at Vidahost (the Co-Founders) well into the early hours - that's pretty personal support. Now they have a team that does so, but it's still very one to one, the price has remained the same.

    In the market for a new hosting.. but who?

    Friends of mine that started a company uses Catalyst2, they run a pretty big ecommerce store that gets a fair amount of traffic. I know they have said the support is amazing and haven't had problems. For what you need, you couldn't go wrong with cloud hosting with Vidahost. When you need to...

    In the market for a new hosting.. but who?

    Where are your customers based? If they're in the UK, go with a UK host. It makes sense. I couldn't recommend Vidahost more - their support is incredible, no matter what time you need help day or night. I send a lot of paid traffic to my sites so it's important that hosting is stable - I've...

    Is a Macbook suitable as a business laptop?

    I went Mac in 2008 and haven't wanted to touch a Windows computer since. Microsoft have released previews of Office 2016, and Excel works perfectly on par with the Windows version now, so no probs there. People will say Macs are expensive, but I bet your Windows equivalent won't work as well 5...

    Dispute with accountants - outstanding balance - objection to strike off

    You're a lot quicker than me Bob. I still haven't even got a profile picture, and seem to be locked in with this awful username. I need to sort my forum life out and get back on the ball :D

    Dispute with accountants - outstanding balance - objection to strike off

    I understand that, but I would never expect anybody to do work for me for free...and it just doesn't make sense for them to complete your accounts for one monthly payment. I guess that's what you must have assumed. I don't mean to come across offensively by the way, just trying to understand...

    Dispute with accountants - outstanding balance - objection to strike off

    But if they had already prepared accounts, i.e put in their hours for you, would you not assume that it would have to be paid for? I originally skimmed over the article and missed the fact that they had already carried out work for you, but once I noticed that it seemed fair enough in my mind...
