    Vat increase and invoicing

    Hi thanks for your replies. Mike, I'm hoping the work will be completed before the end of the year. Pressme, we only pay vat (quarterly) after we have received payment from them - and the date of the invoice determines the vat rate. This is a business to business sale. Everything we do is...

    limited company in liquidation

    I do hope the award to you was for some grossly unfair dismissal and not just because they left some poxy minor procedure out by mistake. Sorry to be negative but on the whole these claims (& i'm not referring to the OP's) are heavily weighted towards the employee leaving a struggling small...

However, maybe the OP can spend a...

    Accountant - do you charge for silly things?
