Because the parts that normally cost time — discovery calls, quote meetings, manual onboarding — are automated. The file is prepared and reviewed by the same ICAEW-qualified team that handles our monthly clients.

Is the standard lower?

No. Same preparation, same review, same regulated firm, same professional indemnity cover. Only the buying process differs.

Why can't I call about this service?

Telephone support is what makes traditional fees high. Online filing is supported by email and portal within one working day. If you want an accountant you can ring, that's what our monthly packages are for.

What if my situation is more complex?

We tell you before starting and quote the difference. Accept it, or take a full refund.

No — VAT is added at checkout.

Can I switch mid-year?

Yes, we handle professional clearance with your previous accountant.

Do you act as my agent with HMRC?

Yes, agent authorisation is set up as part of every service.
