Tax investigation cover in Caerphilly, included free with every client
Tax investigation cover Caerphilly business owners are usually sold as a yearly add-on. We include it free for every client, and if HMRC opens an enquiry into your business we deal with HMRC for you.
Other firms charge £300 to £1,000 a year for this. We carry the cost ourselves, because an enquiry should not arrive with a second invoice attached while you are digging out records. Every HMRC investigation we have handled, we have won.
In one lineSupreme Consultants is an AAT licensed accountancy practice at Titan House in Cardiff Bay that includes tax investigation cover free for every client, including businesses in Caerphilly. If HMRC opens an enquiry, the firm deals with it at no extra cost, on a fixed fee agreed in writing before work starts.

Three buttons, no email address.
Question 1 of 3
If HMRC wrote to you tomorrow, would your accountant deal with it at no extra cost?
Do you know in writing what your fee will be for the year ahead?
Does your accountant reply the same working day?
On all three counts you are carrying the risk yourself, and an HMRC letter would turn into a bill. Start the check and we will tell you the same working day whether we can take you on.
Start the checkYou are in a reasonable position and somebody is doing part of the job. The gap is worth one conversation before HMRC picks your return, so start the check.
Start the checkYou are well served and there is no reason to move. Read the guides, and come back to us if the cover or the fee changes.
Read the guidesWhat you get
Cover included free for every client
If HMRC opens an enquiry into your business, we deal with it and you pay us nothing extra.
A fixed fee that holds all year
The fee is agreed in writing before we start. Calls, meetings and emails are never charged on top.
An answer the same working day
Forward the HMRC letter and you hear back that day. If the answer needs longer, we say when to expect it.
What Caerphilly owners tell us before they call
These are the three things we hear most when an HMRC letter lands.
A letter came from HMRC about my VAT return and I do not know what they are asking for.
It sat unopened for three weeks. Replying late narrows what you can still put to HMRC.
My accountant wants a separate fee to handle the enquiry and I never budgeted for that.
The cover was an add-on he had declined two years earlier. The enquiry work was then billed by the hour.
I owe HMRC money across three taxes and nobody has explained what any of it is for.
He paid what the statement said. Part of it turned out to be estimates nobody had corrected.
What changes once we take it on
You send us the letter and we answer HMRC. We pull your filings and HMRC records together so the numbers you give back hold up. The work sits inside your fixed fee.
Cover bought as an add-on, and cover included
Both arrangements can work. The difference is who pays when the letter arrives.
Cover sold as a yearly add-on
An extra line at £300 to £1,000 a year
Renewed each year alongside the accounts fee
Enquiry work can sit outside the main fee
Updates come when the file is picked up

Eight questions about your current set-up
Answer these before your next VAT return is due.
Do you know whether you have investigation cover at all?
Many owners find out only when the enquiry letter arrives.
Is the cover charged to you as a separate yearly line?
Ours is included free for every client.
Would a ten minute phone call about an HMRC letter reach your invoice?
Calls, meetings and emails are never charged here.
Is your fee for the year ahead agreed in writing?
We agree the fixed fee before any work starts.
Do you get a reply the same working day?
If the answer needs longer, we still come back that day to say when.
Have your VAT records been checked against what HMRC holds?
We compare your filings with HMRC’s records in the first month.
Do you know what each HMRC balance on your statement is for?
Estimated payments on account often sit in there uncorrected.
Has anyone appealed penalties that were worth appealing?
We look at that as part of going through your history.

Reviews from clients
Thank you Mud, your help and support with my VAT return is greatly appreciated. Always a prompt response and my difficult VAT return was quickly submitted and resolved. Would definitely recommend.
I just want to say a big thank you to Mudassir for all the advice, guidance and help he has provided whilst dealing with my accounts and tax returns. From start to finish the service has been excellent and professional. Unlike other accountancy firms they provide a friendly personalised service, I was very clear on the process and was even provided with additional guidance where needed. Highly recommended!
Friendly, nice 👌 , helpful and great all around
Difficult to describe as there are too many words that can be expressed for a wonderful accountant and their firm.
Definitely 🔝 and highly recommended in Wales 🏴 and throughout the UK for Accountancy and Tax Services

Tax investigation cover in Caerphilly: questions people ask
What does tax investigation cover in Caerphilly cost with Supreme Consultants?
Nothing on top. It is included free for every client, whatever work we do for you. Your bookkeeping, VAT, payroll, accounts and tax sit on one fixed fee agreed in writing before we start, and calls, meetings and emails are never charged. Other firms sell cover as an add-on for £300 to £1,000 a year.
Can I switch accountants and still get tax investigation cover?
Yes. Every client gets the cover and the handover costs you nothing. We write to your current accountant for your records, so you do not have to make that call, and we complete the ID checks and the HMRC and Companies House authorisations. Your first month is free and moving to Xero is free if you want it.
What happens if HMRC writes to me about my VAT?
Forward it the day it arrives and you hear back that working day. We tell you what HMRC is asking for and what the deadline is, then we answer them ourselves and handle the correspondence. You pay us nothing extra for that work. Every HMRC investigation we have handled, we have won.
Do I have to change accounting software to join you?
No. If your books are in software that works, we carry on using it. If you would rather move to Xero, we do the migration free. We can also keep the bookkeeping in-house, so you send us the paperwork and we take it from there. Nobody has to learn a new system to join us.
Do you work with Caerphilly businesses or do I have to come to Cardiff?
Caerphilly is one of the towns we cover from our office at Titan House in Cardiff Bay, and over 90% of our clients are in South Wales. Most of the work happens remotely by email, phone and cloud software. You can also come in and sit down with us, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.
Will you take me on if HMRC has already opened an enquiry?
If the case is already late in an HMRC investigation, we will tell you straight that we are the wrong firm rather than take the fee. We also do not act for CIS construction subcontractors or prepare charity accounts. Any other trading business in South Wales, including sole traders, limited companies and CICs, is welcome.
