High value refunds uncovered through a deep ACC data review.

Background

Ingham Mora, with a team of nearly 50 professionals, is the largest independent accounting firm in the Bay of Plenty. Known for its progressive approach and commitment to innovation, the firm has been supporting the region’s business community for over 60 years.

Scan & Refunds

Through their involvement with The GAP, the directors learned about Accelerate Engine and decided to have their client database scanned to uncover potential ACC overcharging.

The Results

The results were impressive, with Accelerate Engine securing refunds for a high percentage of Ingham Mora’s clients. ACC deposited repayments directly into clients’ bank accounts.

Historical Data

Jennifer Rowlands, Ingham Mora’s in house ACC specialist, oversaw the scan and refund process. She noted that Accelerate was able to electronically retrieve up to 22 years of data from ACC for clients, depending on how long they’d been trading.

Recommendation

Jennifer described the Accelerate team as highly knowledgeable in all areas of ACC levies, praising their responsiveness and support throughout the project.

“Our clients were thrilled, some received refunds of over $5,000. This was an exciting and rewarding initiative and it was incredibly satisfying to see so much money returned quickly and efficiently.”
