Find the Value of Research and Development Tax Credits

What we were doing with RandDTax is pretty complicated and they were very good at walking us through what needed to be done and making it all clear. It helped us to release some capital that we wouldn't otherwise have been able to access. Linda and Paula 100% did what I had hoped for.

Today I received a very nice and welcome cheque from HMRC for an R&D tax refund, all thanks to Simon Shuker of RandDTax. To be honest when I was first contacted I was more than sceptical, even though it was an intro from someone I trust, I did not believe that it would not take a considerable amount of my time and end up being a pointless exercise. I think I have a hat for supper today!

Luckily Simon has good grasp on the type of work we have been doing, as he comes from an engineering background so explaining the tech combined with hardware and innovation was not an issue. Having had an initial call or two he set up a zoom (this was 2020 after all!) with Terry Toms and myself, and we all agreed that indeed EV Driver had a good reason to look into this in more detail. The issue being I had very little time to spare but I was assured that as good accounts have been kept it would not need me to be over involved and as the fee was based on a % of a successful claim, I had little to lose but time. He was right, I set aside half a day initially  to pull everything together and a few calls and read throughs and we were there. They insisted my accountants check over things and the claim was duly submitted.

The work that we put in during those early days of setting up our network, testing roaming and interoperability, building a customer service solution have all helped to grow and develop not just EV Driver but the industry as we share knowledge with others.  Today I feel like that has been recognised and rewarded. Thank you so much for help and hard work over the last few months.

We thought that we had our R&D Tax Credits well under control. However, RandDTax were able to show us exactly how to get everything we were entitled to, and when we were entitled to it. As a company investing heavily in developing every ambitious, intelligent customer service IT portals it was very rewarding to find that the UK government would give us tax credits in cash equal to roughly 30% of our R&D spend. This has been a great help and I would be very happy to recommend the RandDTax team to any company investing in innovation. Our normal tax advisers do a great job for us for most areas of tax, but when it comes making the best of R&D Tax Credits it pays to engage dedicated specialists.

We feel that the process works well and we truly appreciate your continued guidance and support for our claims.

IMSCAD Global Ltd provides complex solutions for graphical applications be it on premise, hybrid and/or cloud based. The support given by Linda and Paula at RandDTax from the initial consultation through to the successful conclusion of what was a significant six-figure additional deduction to offset our corporation tax (with the options of taking a five-figure payment directly from HMRC) was invaluable and we highly recommend this company.

My experience of dealing with the government was just too much pain for small companies. Thank you Linda for all your hard work with our claim and successfully obtaining Tax Credits for us.

For the last four years Fretwell-Downing Hospitality has used the services of Terry Toms in support of the company’s application for Rand D Tax credits. During that period Terry has assisted us in gaining in excess of £200k in R&D tax credits.

Thank you all again for your help. It makes a big difference to the success of our small company!

We have referred many of our clients to RandDTax since 2013. They have some 26 consultants covering the UK, going to where our Clients are based and responding immediately; and and RandDTax are also fee competitive when compared to some firms offering this service, charging rather less than most. All in all, RandDTax are a knowledgeable, reliable and responsive specialist Research and Development Tax Relief Consultancy and a useful partner for DPC in offering enhanced services to our Clients.

As precision engineering manufacturers, we continually strive to improve the quality, performance and cost/value of the finished products we deliver however, until we met Tim Walsh from RandDTax we were not entirely convinced that we qualified for R&D tax relief. Through the confidence that RandDTax inspired in us and their determination and defence to counter all HMRC’s questions, we achieved the full refund we were expecting.

Fletcher Moorland is a one stop source for industrial equipment repair and servicing. We offer Electro-Mechanical Repair, Servo & Spindle Repair, Automation Repair and Specialist Manufacturing. Much of our work involves reverse engineering and we have built a team of skilled engineering staff who conduct a wide variety of Research and Development into engineering advanced solutions for our customers. We originally started claiming R&D Tax Relief though our Accountants and were referred by them to Jaime Lumsden of RandDTax once it became clear that our claim could be much more comprehensive and required specialist support. RandDTax works with us and our Accountants to maximise what can be correctly claimed. It is an efficient and quite rapid process which to date has generated successful results, year on year, within 28 days from submission. Over the past five years, we have successfully claimed R&D Tax Credits providing Technical Justifications and Costs Analysis to the satisfaction of HMRC. To date, our claim values have totalled some £600K and the resultant reduction in Corporation Tax, credits in Cash refunds and the ability to carry forward losses for future use, all have been very valuable to our business.

I’ve never in over 10 years in business had anything given to me before, or known any support for a small business like this that can benefit my business to this level overnight. I had no idea we could qualify for something like this. After a brief chat, Steve Richardson at RandDTax made things clear and he has been great to deal with. Steve explained everything we needed to know clearly from the start, done all the work and hardly any of our time has been taken up…No hassle at all.

Steve Richardson at RandDTax was efficient, reliable, and patient. We were helped to recover funds that we urgently needed urgently and the process was stress free thanks to all Steve's help.

I am writing to thank you for all your hard work and support in the successful claim against R&D expenditure. This is of significant financial consequence to CBH and will ensure our cash flow for some considerable time.

We’d heard of R&D Tax Credits but hadn’t done anything about it as we thought the application process would be lengthy and time consuming, and our time would be better spent doing something else. My experience generally with government handouts was that they were only worth applying for by big companies, dealing with government was just too much pain for small companies. A chance conversation with Terry put us straight, we are now saving half our tax bill every year for minimal cost and effort.

For a small company, deciding whether to put in an R&D tax credit application can be daunting – we don’t have time to waste! Fortunately we bumped into Terry at one of his presentations, delivered – note – alongside specialist assessors from HMRC. A week later our application was done, with about a day of work on our side. Terry removed pretty much all of our worries: complexity, horror stories about over-charging tax credit consultants, and so on. Our application was successful. We will be back!

We are an innovative web development company, now in our third year of claiming R&D tax relief. We had no idea that we could get our corporation tax payments reduced until we spoke to Terry and Linda from RandDTax. We are really delighted with their service, we have claimed above £7,000 per year and it has made a big different to our company. They make the claims process as simple as possible and are easy people to work with. If you think you may be doing R&D I recommend you contact them.

We have introduced several of our Clients to RandDTax. Without exception, they have been delighted with the efficient service and support in maximising their claims. For us at Haines Watts, we find RandDTax to be responsive, supportive and they really know how to work well, alongside us, re-enforcing the service that we offer to our Clients.

We have worked for the last three years with Jaime Lumsden of RandDTax, successfully securing Tax Credits and Rebates, year on year, for some of our Clients working in the web-based software sector. Maclean Carmichael has found RandDTax to be efficient and knowledgeable, both for our Clients and ourselves. R&D Tax Relief is a specialist area and with Jaime’s support, we have helped our Clients’ to maximise both cash rebates and reductions in Corporation Tax payable. In particular, RandDTax responds quickly to our questions and allows us to submit the claims promptly leading to HMRC settlement, often in less than five weeks.

Nothing but a pleasure to deal with RandDTax, straightforward advice, quick and fantastic results for our clients

With such a valuable HMRC incentive available we highlight the relevance of R & D to our clients and invite them to work with Linda of RandD Tax to review their position and submit claims. Linda has been instrumental in securing the R&D Tax relief for a number of our clients in a timely and professional manner and I would highly recommend her services to any client who is eligible for such reliefs. Thank you for making what could be a minefield a very painless exercise for our clients.

RandDTax are very professional and it was quite an easy process with them. We hadn't used anyone for R&D tax before. Linda Eziquiel came to us and we’ve been really pleased. They do exactly what they said they would do from day one.

Linda at RandDTax has been a pleasure to work with. We have found the whole process very efficient and instrumental in getting fantastic results for our clients.

My firm has worked with Terry Toms of RandDTax for several years and, without exception, he has been extremely helpful and knowledgeable both in terms of advising where R & D tax relief would be available and in assisting our clients direct in putting together the appropriate report for the purposes of HMRC. His understanding of what HMRC would expect in order that claims are processed as painlessly as possible has also been invaluable. We would thoroughly recommend RandDTax.

We have worked with RandDTax to provide our clients with specialist advice and support in claiming R&D tax relief and tax credits. As a result our more innovative clients have made successful R&D claims, which has helped to fund their investment in R&D. We have found Linda Eziquiel, our lead advisor from RandDTax, to be knowledgeable, efficient and pleasant to work with.

We have worked with RandDTax for close to four years and many of our clients have benefitted from their services. They are especially good at recognising, scoping and describing qualifying R&D while our clients are often unsure of the valid interpretation of all the technical HMRC rules and guidelines. RandDTax help make the claim process simple, secure and fast. We found that on average, R&D specialist consulting firms will charge between 20% to 35% of tax recovered or tax credits paid, whereas the RandDTax charge is much lower – so great value for money.
