Switch to Your Tax Help

If Your Accountant Is Letting You Down, Move.

Most people stay with an accountant they have outgrown because they assume switching is a hassle. It is not. The whole point of our onboarding is that you barely have to lift a finger, you give us the go-ahead, sign a short engagement letter, and we take it from there. We contact your previous accountant for the professional clearance and your records, register as your agent with HMRC, set up your cloud software, and confirm every upcoming deadline so nothing slips. Most clients are fully across within about 48 hours.

The signs that it is time to move are familiar: you can never get hold of them, you only hear from them once a year, you are surprised by bills, deadlines have been missed, or you simply feel like a number rather than a client who gets proper advice. At Your Tax Help you get one named accountant who actually answers the phone, fixed monthly fees agreed in advance, and proactive help all year, not just at filing time. If that sounds like the change you want, switching to it is genuinely simple.

You do not have to wait for your year end or the new tax year to switch, and you do not have to have a difficult conversation with your current accountant. We manage the handover as a routine professional courtesy, and you carry on running your business.

How It Works

Switching in Four Simple Steps

1๏ธโƒฃ

Free 15-Minute Call

Tell us about your business and what is not working with your current setup. No commitment. We confirm the right service and a fixed monthly fee on the call.

2๏ธโƒฃ

Sign Your Engagement Letter

We send a clear written proposal with everything included and the fixed fee. You sign digitally in a couple of minutes, that is the only paperwork you touch.

3๏ธโƒฃ

We Handle the Handover

We send the clearance letter to your previous accountant, obtain your records, get authorised with HMRC to act for you, and set up your cloud software. You do nothing.

4๏ธโƒฃ

You Are Up and Running

We confirm every upcoming deadline, pick up exactly where things were left, and your named accountant looks after everything from there, all year round.

Worried About a Missed Deadline During the Move?

You should not be. We deliberately plan the switch around your Companies House, HMRC and VAT dates, confirm what has and has not already been filed, and make sure there is continuous cover. A clean handover means no gap, no missed deadline and no penalty, just a smoother service from day one.

Recent Client Outcome

How a frustrated business owner switched to us in two days, mid-year

A limited company owner came to us in October, halfway through her accounting year, frustrated that her accountant never replied to emails and had let a confirmation statement slip. She assumed she was stuck until her year end and would have to manage the mess until then.

We took a fifteen-minute call on a Monday, sent her engagement letter that afternoon, and she signed it the same evening. We wrote to her previous accountant for clearance and her records, filed for HMRC agent authorisation, and reviewed her Companies House position, catching and correcting the overdue confirmation statement before it caused a problem. By Wednesday she was fully onboarded with us.

She did not have a single awkward conversation with her old accountant, nothing was missed in the handover, and she now has one accountant who replies the same day, all for a fixed monthly fee.

Switching Questions Answered

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it difficult to switch accountants?
No. Switching is far easier than most people expect, because we do nearly all of it for you. Once you give us the go-ahead, we write to your previous accountant for professional clearance and your records, get authorised with HMRC to act on your behalf, and set up your software. You do not have to have awkward conversations or chase paperwork. Most clients are fully moved across within about 48 hours of signing their engagement letter.
Do I have to tell my old accountant?
You do not have to have a difficult conversation. As a professional courtesy we send your previous accountant a clearance letter on your behalf, which is the normal, expected way the profession handles a move. You can let them know yourself if you prefer, but you do not need to, and you do not need to give a reason. The handover is routine and we manage it.
Will there be a gap in my accounting or a missed deadline?
No. We plan the switch around your deadlines so nothing is missed. We pick up exactly where your previous accountant left off, confirm what has and has not been filed, and make sure every upcoming Companies House, HMRC and VAT date is covered. A clean handover means continuity, not a gap.
Can I switch accountants part-way through the year?
Yes. You can switch at any point in the year, you do not have to wait for your year end or the new tax year. We take over from the current position, obtain your records and figures to date, and continue seamlessly. Many clients switch mid-year precisely because they are unhappy now and do not want to wait.
Does switching cost anything?
There is no charge from us for handling the switch itself, it is part of welcoming you as a client. Your ongoing service is then a fixed monthly fee, agreed in writing before you commit, with no surprise bills. Occasionally a previous accountant charges for copying records, but this is uncommon and we will flag anything to be aware of up front.
