π¨ NatWest & Xero Users β Please Check Your Bank Feed π¨
We've identified an issue affecting NatWest bank feeds into Xero.
It appears that some transactions from 9 July 2026 may be missing from Xero, despite appearing correctly on your NatWest bank statement.
If you use a NatWest bank feed, we recommend checking your bank statement against your Xero transactions for 9 July 2026 to make sure everything has imported correctly.
It's also a good reminder that, as part of your regular bookkeeping routine, you should always validate your Xero Bank Reconciliation Summary against your actual bank statement balance. Bank feeds are generally very reliable, but they're not infallible, and this simple check can quickly identify any missing transactions or discrepancies.
Missing transactions can lead to incomplete bookkeeping, so it's worth taking a few minutes to check.
If you notice anything missing, or you'd like us to help review your account, please get in touch. We're happy to help.
π£ Q2 Return Deadline β 15 July 2026
β° Donβt forget to submit your Tax & Social Return and Secondary Pension Return before the deadline.
If youβre an employer, you should now be submitting Secondary Pension details through Returns Creator or your payroll software.
Payroll can feel like a lot - and deadlines creep up quickly. π
πΌ Need help? We can get everything sorted and keep you compliant.
π Or better yetβ¦ outsource your payroll and let us handle the deadlines altogether.

β οΈ Are you sure your payroll reporting is compliant?
Revenue Service has confirmed that fines for non-compliance will soon be issued, yet many employers are still unaware of all the returns they are required to submit.
Now is a good time to review your payroll and reporting obligations.
To help, we've created a simple flowchart, showing which returns need to be submitted through Returns Creator or your alternative payroll software.
We've also written a detailed guide explaining the most common areas where employers are getting caught out, including:
β
Secondary Pension obligations
β
Economic Statistics reporting
β
SP10 exemptions for directors
β
Common compliance mistakes
Take a few minutes to check your obligations before Revenue Service checks them for you.

This week saw the release of Guernsey's Tax Reform Policy Letter.
Weirdly, Di has been the one taking a real interest in tax and social security reform recently. Normally she's all about Xero, apps, business growth and the joyful "adding value" stuff!
So, if you've found yourself wondering "what does Di think?", you're in luck.
At DNA, we help clients understand the numbers behind major decisions and policy changes. With tax reform potentially affecting businesses, employers, the self-employed and households across the island, Di has taken a detailed look at the proposals.
Her conclusion?
The package is considerably softer than many expected.
There are some genuinely positive changes, including the new Social Security allowance and the scaling back of employer contribution increases.
There are also some important questions that still need answering, particularly around aspects of the proposed Social Security reforms and the policy thinking behind them.
Most importantly, this isn't a simple debate about whether we like GST or not.
It's about how Guernsey funds public services, supports future generations and creates a sustainable tax system for the long term.
We've shared Di's analysis, including a breakdown of where the money comes from, what has changed, what she likes, and the areas she believes deserve further discussion.
