How Chartered accountants Croydon helped me re-build my business.

If you, like myself, own a business in Croydon, you will appreciate that the tax returns Croydon council expect from you can often be a complicated and lengthy affair. That is probably why the high street accountant is such a popular figure in the rows of shops that you will find present on almost every road. If you are a recipient of its payroll Croydon council will inevitably offer you information of the best chartered accountants Croydon has to offer and the advice is invaluable. I myself found that there were many times when I was not completely sure about my tax return form, and indeed once I had visited one of these suggested offices, I came away relieved that I had not submitted the form without their checking it, since I would have lost on hundreds of pounds of hard earned money, or even once, I would have risked going to prison because an innocent mistake on my part whilst filling in the form had calculated my tax at far lower then I owed. These types of mistakes can lead to delayed money return or as in the case of the latter sometimes lengthy and expensive court proceedings or fines and thus the peace of mind that these establishments can give you should be availed. It is their profession to help you keep your own accounts in order, to maintain a healthy bank balance and credit score. You will often find a small business specialist in their offices who will be assigned to your accounts and since he or she understands firsthand the complexities of a small business’ incomings and outgoings you can be secure that your matters are being thoroughly handled. In the 2011 riots that hit London and especially Croydon, my business was seriously affected, in that it was burnt down completely, in fact the whole block of four or five businesses that stood as my long time neighbours and friends were all burnt down, and so were the two storey residential above them. It was devastating because it was 30 years of my own life reduced to rubble and ash, and I had never appreciated my local accountant more than during this time. The comprehensive information that I was given on what I was due, what I needed to pay, how I would survive, when I could expect a return to normal income, all of these questions were researched and found out by them, they acted like my own personal assistants finding out all the random information that I was suddenly in need of. Moreover, although they like me were a local family-run company, they had contacts that could help me rebuild my premises, and some of my similarly afflicted neighbours were also delighted with the advice that the company gave them. They had a different type of business to mine, there was the local supermarket, a restaurant, a meat shop and the tailors; but all found the advice of the accountants invaluable.
