Frequently Asked Questions
The Answers You Need
What are your service fees?
Our standard fees are listed above in the fees section. However your exact fee will depend on your business/personal needs. We can offer a fixed fee quote to include everything you require.
What are the differences between an accountant and bookkeeper?
An experienced bookkeeper may offer some services that an accountant offers. Generally a bookkeeper looks after the line by line detail of the transactions on a regular basis during the year whereas an accountant is focused on tax planning and submission, quality of bookkeeping, accounts preparation and submission and other business advice.
Do LTA Online offer bookkeeping services?
Yes we do. We can act as your accountant and bookkeeper. The standard fees quoted above are based on you doing your own bookkeeping, bookkeeping is an add-on starting from £50 p/m for up to 50 monthly transactions.
What's an 'Online Accountant'?
The truth is that most traditional accounting practices have a physical office but service their clients largely online anyway via email and phone. The difference wit LTA Online is that we are exclusively online accountants. This means that we have less overheads and fixed costs so can offer a lower fee service at the same quality.
Can I call an accountant at LTA Online if I am a client?
The short answer is yes! However, to maximise efficiency we deal mainly with emails. We are more than happy to advise over the phone also, we offer this by arranging a call back. So there is no dial in number but we simply let you book a slot to discuss your accounting and tax affairs and a convenient time to suit you. Easy peazy!
How do I change accountant?
Changing accountant is actually a lot easier that what people realise. We appreciate it is not a decision to take lightly as you build a relationship with your accountant ideally over the long-term. If you choose to move to us we simply contact your previous accountant for any handover information once you have notified them that you would like to move to us. One thing to consider is the timing of the change as you may of been paying monthly towards your year end accounts already, we can help advise on this.
How do I join LTA Online?
Simply click on the 'Speak to us' link at the bottom or top of the website and we ask you to complete a short form to capture some basic information. We then arrange a call with you so that we can discuss your exact needs and send over an official proposal for the services you require. That's it! We make this process as seamless as possible.
I'm looking for an accountant in Gloucester, can you still help me?
Yes! We are based online but have real accountants giving you the advice, preparing the returns etc so the end product is just as good (dare I say better due to the team we have!) but at a more competitive price. We can help clients in Gloucester and to be frank anywhere in the UK!
