Referrals to SDLT compass limited

Our Stamp Check Service enables you to make referrals to Compass for specialist advice on the calculation of SDLT provided by the Stamp Check Service. Where you request such a referral to Compass by clicking the “refer” button on screen, we will pass your contact information to Compass (together with the contact information of your client) so that Compass may:

(a) Contact your client directly to contract with them for Compass’s SDLT advice; and
(b) Liaise with you in relation to the advice Compass provides to your client.

Before the “refer for detailed review” button on screen becomes active, you will need to pay Compass’s fee in advance by using our online payment facility and clicking the “Pay Compass’s Fee” button on screen. We will collect this payment as Compass’s agent and pass it to Compass as soon as possible after your client has contracted with them.

Compass will provide their advice in accordance with their own terms and conditions, which will be sent directly to your client using the contact information you have provided. Compass will use the personal data you have supplied in accordance with their Privacy Policy.

While we collect your payment to Compass as their agent, we are not a party to the contract between your client and Compass. Accordingly, we make no representation, warranty, or commitment regarding Compass’s services, and we accept no liability in relation to your client’s contract with Compass. You remain solely responsible for your recommendation to your client to use Compass for SDLT advice.

Where your client contracts with Compass for SDLT advice, Compass’s fee starts at £99 + VAT and may vary depending on the complexity of the case. The final fee will be confirmed upon referral.

Example:
For a £1,600,000 property, Compass’s fee will be confirmed upon review, based on case complexity and applicable tax advisory requirements.

For your reassurance, Compass carries professional indemnity insurance of £1,000,000 per claim in respect of SDLT advice provided through the Stamp Check Service.

If your client chooses not to engage Compass for SDLT advice after payment, we will refund the fee in full. However, we can only process this refund once Compass confirms that your client has not engaged their services.
