For the bank
Name this firm.
High-street banks do not offer a public list of accountants to tick. The customer, or the relationship manager, records the firm the customer chooses. Copy the card and send it to the branch, or ask the manager to email parvez@valuemavenuk.co.uk.
- 01
Give the bank the legal name, company number and email. Do not give them a home address — none is published here.
- 02
If the bank wants papers, we send the latest accounts, the corporation tax computation, VAT position and a letter of engagement.
- 03
We do not open the account, and we never ask for online-banking passwords or a Companies House login.

The banks
How a bank can actually choose this firm.

- Mettle for accountancy practices
- Starling accountant partnership
- Tide partner programme
Barclays
Introducer programme
Join the introducer programme and a relationship manager in Essex or London can take a business-account referral from this firm. That is how the branch comes to know the practice when a customer asks for a local accountant.
Santander · Cater Allen
Accountant referrals
Cater Allen, part of Santander, has a page for accountants who refer clients and open client accounts. The relationship team takes the referral from the firm.
Lloyds · Cardnet
Card-payment introducer
Lloyds does not publish an accountant chooser for business current accounts. Cardnet, part of Lloyds, does publish an introducer programme for firms that refer clients who need to take card payments.
NatWest, Mettle and FreeAgent
Accountant directory
Many NatWest and Mettle business accounts include FreeAgent. Joining as a FreeAgent partner is what can put the practice on the directory those clients search. Mettle’s own page explains how a practice works with the account.
Starling Bank
Accountant partnership
Starling gives a qualified practice its own partner link, so the application shows which firm the client chose. They ask for a practising certificate, a working website and professional indemnity cover. The current test is on their page.
Tide
Partner programme
Tide’s partner programme is for accountants who introduce clients. Once the firm is accepted, that introduction names this practice.
HSBC
The customer names the firm
HSBC does not publish an accountant introducer form. The customer, or the relationship manager, records the accountant the customer asks for. Give them the practice card on this page.
The register
ACCA’s own directory.
Banks and clients who search “find an accountant” often land on ACCA, not on a bank website. The firm should appear there as Valuemaven Business Services (UK) Limited, with this website, and without a house number. If the listing still shows a home address, ask ACCA to remove the street and point the entry at this page.
ACCA find an accountantA branch has asked for an accountant.
Send the town, the bank, and whether the client is a new company or a takeover. We reply to the client and, if you ask, to the relationship manager.
