Questions
Common questions
Is Pick My Accountant free to use?
Yes. Comparing firms and requesting introductions is free for businesses. Some firms pay for labelled visibility such as featured placement; payment never changes ratings or match results.
How much does an accountant cost in the UK?
On our benchmarks, sole traders typically pay £39–£89 a month and small limited companies £83–£227 a month. VAT returns and payroll are usually extra.
Where do the accountant listings come from?
Every listing starts from the Companies House public register. Researched profiles add a verified contact route, published fees or other evidence from the practice's own website, each with the date it was checked. A register entry is not a qualification check or an endorsement.
How do I check an accountant is qualified?
Search the named person on their professional body’s public register (ICAEW, ICAS, ACCA, AAT, Chartered Accountants Ireland or CIOT), and ask for their practising certificate and anti-money-laundering supervisor before you sign.
Will accountancy firms see my details?
Only the firms you choose, and only with your consent. Firms you do not pick never see your details.
