We use forensic auditing and analysis of your Local Authority rates to assess the rateable value of your business premises to check for historic refunds and future savings your business could be due. If our analysis uncovers that your business qualifies, we will then proceed with contesting the rateable value and claiming the savings / refunds.
We operate on a strictly No Win, No Fee basis.
Does my business qualify?
Your business needs to have had an active account with your local authority within the last 6 years. If your business has moved address or has more than one premises, we can still check to see if your business is due a refund.
What supporting documentation do you require?
The only documentation we require from you is our signed Business Refund Pack and a copy of a local authority rates bill / statement.
Why use Business Refunds?
Using our knowledge and expertise of this area, we have developed auditing and analysis software that check the calculations of your local authority rates and uncover any refunds due. Not only will your business receive a cash injection, it will also benefit from an ongoing reduction in charges from your local authority. Our relationships with local authorities mean potential refunds can be received within 2 to 3 weeks of starting the process.
Do you work on a No Win, No Fee basis?
Yes, complete the free eligibility checker and we will find out if you are due a refund. There is no cost to your business, even if you are not due a refund. Only once you have received your refund does our fee of 30% of any financial recovery become applicable.
Although each individual property differs the Valuation Office Agency (VOA) should assess the rateable value against a number of differing matrix, including how you operate your business. It’s clear that the VOA are unable to do this on every property and business and therefore the potential for refunds and savings occur. If your business has moved address or has more than one premises, we can still check to see if your business is due a refund and look to contest the rateable value.
In most cases we will require a copy of the business’s Local Authority rates bill / statement.
Using our knowledge and expertise of this area, we have developed auditing and analysis software that check the calculations and assumptions made in the rateable value by the VOA. We work with a team surveyor’s to identify if the property has a rateable value that is too high. If so, we can look to contest this for you resulting in a saving on future bills and possible refunds.
Yes, we work on a No Win, No Fee basis. If we do not believe you qualify for a contestable rate review or any refunds, then there are no fees to pay. If the team of surveyors are successful, they charge 30% plus VAT of any financial benefit received.
It’s a very simple process. Complete the free eligibility check and we can begin the process for you.
