Re: Hmrc
My friend V , worked in shops for 50 years , the last 20 yrs paid into the company pension . On retirement 2 yrs ago she chose to take a lump sum of £7000 rather than a measly monthly payment . She was taxed on the lump sum and retired on to pension credit and just her state pension . A year on she was contacted by the tax man saying she hadn't been taxed enough on retiring and as she had received her lump sum , final month wage and some holiday pay she owed them another couple of hundred (their mistake ) so she offered £20 per month . Again 3 months ago they told her she owed another £120 she got advice from age UK who put her in touch with someone of knowledge and sadly they did find she did owe this money , again no fault of hers . She now pays another £5 a month to clear this debt . I don't have exact figures in her final retirement money but she had only a few hundred in savings . She has been hounded by the tax man , and been made to pay it all on a monthly payment . The stress she had was awful and she was scared .Re: Hmrc

HiRe: Hmrc
HMRC have got rid of loads of people, so I am told. At the moment, they are as much use as an ashtray on a motorbike. I have received letters from debt collection agencies, working on behalf of HMRC, regarding CIS payments that are owed to them. They, on the other hand, owe me a lot more and both I and my accountant, have phoned, written and e mailed them.
