    I understand why it was only £80, because the ICPA is a membership association but one which is not a CCAB affiliated organisation so it has no exams required to join & does not appear to have a disciplinary scheme.

    It is used mainly by unqualified advisers/salespeople. You have learned to choose a qualified accountant or tax adviser in the future, but the lesson has only cost you £80!

    They are chartered accounts but not sure if they are CCAB affiliated. I can provide their website URL if you are interested :)

    If they are Chartered Accountants in England & Wales you complain to the ICAEW.

    If they are Chartered Accountants in Scotland you complain to the ICAS.

    What initials do they have after their names?
