    Stripe (The Easy Way To Accept Credit/Debit Card Payments)

    We use stripe...it was a comparitive breeze to deploy & are very content with the overall service.

    Opening balances when starting accounts software afresh.

    Actually, we looked into this ourselves (while considering moving packages) - if you read QB's stance of database sizes for their cloud offering it doesn't offer much hope!

    Any way to reduce the amount I'm ripped off for PCI?

    We had a similar dilemma ...to address, we moved to Stripe ....we've now no irritating annual PCI fees.

    Jersey GST (VAT)

    Actually Scalloway's link was pretty clear, here's the specific extract (assuming this is involving good not services)... "Since May 2008, Jersey has operated a Goods and Services Tax (GST) on some supplies, initially at 3% and then since June 2011 at 5%. This works in a different way to the...

    Shares and their impact

    What do you want from this arrangement? If you want him onboard the above agreement, then go for it...because he'll think he has equal say...which if you want, you can let him have equal say, but if it comes down to it & you can't agree, your 60% shareholdings wins! Incidentally, how do you...

    Car leasing? Suggestions?

    Personally....leasing to me is one of the greatest 'spins' going (e.g. "You'll save money vs. buying, you'll have no maintenance worries blah blah"). For my money, by a good 3 year old car (i.e. post *severe* depreciation), dispense with any status symbol associations & always remember....from a...

    If you are Tall and wanted an office chair, what would you search?

    What is this forum? "Land of the Giants" (now feeling positively diminutive at 5' 11½" (btw: the ½" is important)

    If you are Tall and wanted an office chair, what would you search?

    I'll also offer up... "office chair for a long legged person" "office chair for long legs" "high & mighty office chair" (ripping off the term from a well known clothes chain...which may have now permeated into the general langugae)

    You are given £100k - what do you do with it?

    No offence taken, my point being, both were markets in which prices (& sentiment) were bullish ...until sentiment changed. Sentiment really drives prices (both to the up & downside) ...at the point when Gold nearly breached $2000oz all the usual arguments were rolled out to support why it...

    Awesome technology ideas

    This thread has more than a touch of Ali G & the hoverboard pitch to the Venture capitalist ....about it... "That's where you lot come in"

    You are given £100k - what do you do with it?

    That's just the point ...you think demand is healthy...until it stops (llook at gold....US$2000 an oz was a racing certainty, then it tanked, look at oil 50% fall in 6 months - those markets were healthy until sentiment changed) We've not really had a proper house price correction now since the...

    Approaching Suppliers for a New Business

    Personally, i'd be making sure I had a viable business proposition before moving on to registering a business (it's a bit chicken & the egg-ish though!)....fwiw we supply others with products to sell, it's not of primary importance that they are actually registered as a business at the point of...

    You are given £100k - what do you do with it?

    It's interesting that so many people still think BTL is a 'business' worth entering ...in 2001, yes, but IMHO housing is the last shoe to drop (remember gold, look at oil, non US currencies), when it does...oh my word (it's going to be stretch to imagine that in such a deflationary global phase...
