HELPFUL INFORMATION

Understand bookkeeping catch-up before you buy.

Plain-English guidance for customers who want more detail. The package scope and price shown above remain the commercial terms for this service.

Quick rule

This package records and categorises bank transactions - it isn't full bookkeeping, VAT coding, or software posting.

  • Good categories turn a bank statement into information that can support accounts, tax work and management decisions
  • Reconciliation means proving that the records agree to an external source, usually the bank balance, after accounting for timing and any missing entries
  • This package checks the completeness and totals of the supplied bank data and produces a structured transaction file
  • A full bookkeeping reconciliation across invoices, cards, loans and accounting software is outside the one-account scope
EXPERTS YOU CAN TRUST

SERVICE-SPECIFIC FAQ

Questions about bookkeeping catch-up

Still unsure? Ask us before you buy.

Is the transaction count really unlimited?+

Yes, for one electronic bank export covering one UK bank account and a continuous period. Multiple accounts, PDFs requiring manual extraction or fragmented records need a quote.

Do you need my online banking login?+

No. Never send banking credentials. Supply a CSV or Excel export downloaded from your bank.

Does this include VAT coding?+

No. The £99 package records and categorises bank transactions. VAT treatment and return preparation require invoices and a wider review.

Will you import the file into my software?+

The package provides a compatible Excel import file. Direct access, mapping and posting inside your Xero or QuickBooks organisation are not included.

What happens with unclear transactions?+

We flag them and ask one focused set of questions. Items that remain unclear are labelled for your accountant rather than guessed.
