Tired of Being Ghosted by Your Accountant? You Deserve Better

Not sure if it’s time to move on? Here are five common red flags:

1. They take forever to reply
You wait days or even weeks for a response. A good accountant should be easy to reach and quick to answer.

2. They disappear before key deadlines
If they go quiet before VAT returns, payroll runs, or Self Assessment season, they’re leaving you exposed.

3. You only hear from them once a year
Some accountants appear just in time to file your tax return, then disappear until next year. That’s not support, that’s a transaction.

4. Their replies are vague or confusing
If their emails are full of jargon or don’t answer your questions clearly, you’re not getting the advice you need.

5. You’re the one doing all the chasing
If you’re constantly following up to ask what’s going on, it’s a sign your accountant isn’t keeping you in the loop.
