you're either a fool or well versed to do your own.

I pay FBC 9 grand a year to save me **** all so do you have any suggestions?

[LEP]

I wouldn't pay FBC one cent to do work for me.
When I was still banking I found several mistakes in
statements they had prepared and as a rule took
those statements with a grain of salt.

Anybody that has to be paid a year in advance is not
confident in the service they provide to keep
customers coming back.

For $9,000 you could go anywhere and have your
taxes done and a happy ending.

[blackpowder]

Holy shit Hopperbin, you're with FBC!!!
Run like hell!!!!! It took me two years to fix their
mess. Space is limited, but if you believe only one
thing I say all year run RFN!!!!

[AllisWD45]

I totally have to agree with others on here run like hell
from FBC. In the day i worked for FBC one tax season.
It is a monumental scam at the Nigerian prince looking
for help level. Not only does the client get hosed but
the people working for them have troubles getting
paid. You don't get paid until you collect that check in
advance for next year from the client. They still owe
me $4000 for a lot of hard work and a lot of expense
on the road. They are criminals.

Hopperbin, consider a different tax preparer next year. You will sleep better. Still haven't forgotten my father's experience and that was nearly 30 years ago.

Used Premier in Regina for 15 years.
Unbelievable, tried others. No comparison! No
errors, full back- up. We are connected at the hip
for all transactions, corporate, mergers and
acquisitions, they are our right hand.
I have seen the good, bad and the horrible.
Some accountants will get your books so mixed
up, tangled mess, I would jump off a cliff if I had
to depend on some companies. Not singling out
any, but for non-incorporated farms, your best
accpuntant is yourself, if you put the effort into it.

[sumdumguy]

Hopper why do you stay with them and
keep taking it up the ass if you are not
happy.

Its obvious that the rest agree with the
service they provide also.

Is there not a good CA firm within a
reasonable distance that knows ag?

Uhhhhhhhhhhhh! Sounds like Hoppie ain't
sooo perfect after all, eh.. Results
just aboot what I thought they'd be, mass
confusinon on the part of Comedian
framers, pay somebody else ta make yer
mistakes soooos you kin keep busy framing.
After all who cares? Heil Harper F Ritz
eh!

Hopper, for 9 large, that would get you in the door
at MNP. They are the accountant of choice for the
big operators that I am aware of.

[Tucker]

MNP was the firm managing the fixed CWB elections. For that reason alone I will
never ever be a customer of theirs. They were part of that deception and they
deserve to be punished for it.

[Tucker]

9000 grand, what in the hell would be
doing. I pay 4500 with agris included at
1600. Maybe a full fledged re-org would
cost that at MNP.

At least its not a fee based on gross
sales like FBC

As far as the CWB thing, someone had to
handle the election. Regardless if it
was handled properly or not, Deloite,
PWC don't know shit about ag

Several accounting firms in Humboldt, get estimates on what you need for your farm. I do our taxes and 5 family members with Turbo tax. Ag Expert makes it easy.
