Tallied with a vice (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

agreed

'tallied' is the definition.
('agree' can be a synonym of 'tally')

'with a vice' is the wordplay.
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'vice' becomes 'greed' (I've seen this before).
'a'+'greed' is 'AGREED'.

(Other definitions for agreed that I've seen before include "Was consistent" , "Saw eye to eye" , "Acquiesed, concurred" , "came to the same conclusion" , "Consented, settled" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
