The HMRC are a bunch of legalised con men, they have been constantly chasing me, even over here for 900 pounds in back tax that they say I owe.
My last return just before coming here entitled me to a 3,300 pound refund from VAT.
I informed them that this was the case and made an arrangement for them to take what tax was due from it and let me have the difference.
They agreed, it did not happen and they are still chasing me for the amount, plus interest whilst not giving me the refund that I am due.
On my last visit back I went to the tax office in Brighton with all the information and spent 3 hours there nutting it out and being told that all was good and I should be receiving the balance of the money within the next 6 weeks.
It didn't happen and 7 years later they are still chasing me, 'king rediculous.
They phoned me last year and we went through it all again and they didn't even have a record of my 3 hour visit.
As a result of the call nothing changed and they are still on my case, I did everything right and was looking for a refund of around 2,600 pounds to come my way.
No chance and when I did mention about an interest on the money owed to me I was met with derision.
If this was a public run company and not the government they would have been bankrupt years ago.
They are so incompetent and are always right, in what ever they say and even if you prove them wrong they are still right.
