HMRC Refund
jollygreengiant - 21/12/11 at 04:50 PM

Hoorah I just got an email from HMRC telling me that I will get a Tax Refund. Just follow the Link.

The HMRC Link hides a true link to allegedly a business called SBA which has a page allegedly from the HMRC asking you to give them your details and credit card number.



I THINK NOT


Alegedly I was going to get £190 odd.

Oh and reported to the real HMRC.

+1. Nice surprise for Christmas. Calculated from tax year 2006/7, took them a while but I am not complaining as I had no idea I had one coming.

I didn't get a refund but I got a credit and tax code change. Summats better than nowt from these people.

I get 5-6 of those a week, in various guises, luckily Yahoo spam filters tend to pick out 99.99% of them.

Tax office really gets me confused.

Last year - adjustment for unpaid tax on PAYE !!!

This year - a cheque in the post and tax code raised....

Work colleague pocketed a very healthy 4 figure refund last week on overpaid BIK tax. He's been skipping round the office like child ever since

I got a bill (small ) off them recently.
Just reinforces what I think of them. - they don't know what they're doing.
Despite their fancy computer systems !

To be honest I think I'm overdue a refund off them for all the hassle I've had from them

I only seem to get demands telling me that I owe them despite being on paye?
