On the advice of my accountant I saw an IFA recently with z view to reduce my tax liability. The IFA suggested setting up a pension as its mega tax efficient. If I've got this correct, £10k per annum into a pension will cost me £500 per month after factoring in the tax relief. No brainer!

The IFA is looking to charge me £780 to effectively set up the pension. All the tax stuff will be dealt with by my accountant. I don't mind paying people to do a job but £780 seems steep. Is setting up a pension something I can do relatively easily myself or should I stop moaning and pay the IFA?

Any help from the wise much appreciated.
