Why this beats a “from £X/month” list
The plan you'll really need
The advertised 'from' price is usually ex-VAT, and often a plan that doesn't cover everything you do. We cost the cheapest plan that genuinely fits your income — VAT included.
Hidden free routes
FreeAgent is free with a NatWest, RBS, Ulster or Mettle account; others have free tiers. We surface the £0 paths most lists miss.
Kept current
Prices and HMRC recognition shift constantly. Our data is re-checked against vendor sites on a schedule, with the date shown on every result.
