I believe the free banking is no longer available to new members.

Not so sure

FSB Business Banking

What do you mean they will deal with it? I'm considering joining also, is it a government scheme!

 

If you are unlucky enough to have a tax investigation, they will send accountants to sit with you and the tax man to resolve any financial issues which may arise.

 

A local garage owner used this service several years ago when they were investigated. The accountants stopped the tax man from asking too many awkward questions, and quickly resolved their accounting problems.

 

There are many other perks, it is an independent organisation run by elected business people. They have a strong voice in government, basically, as a small business; they are our voice!

Well I think I'm gonna sign up 😀

If you are an AA Member you will very shortly be able to access the FSB scheme as a 'new' member via ourselves and save the ("one-off") £30 joining / admin fee and the AA, as a registered charity, gets a small introductory benefit which will go towards the AA research fund.

 

They are also helping many businesses with the forthcoming "auto-enrolment pensions" stuff...a pending big issue.

 

Cheers..
