I have recieved on of those stinking £100 fines from HM for late submission of P35 (and something else mentioned on the letter, I think it was P14????).
My accountant, although I can't get in touch with him at the moment since he is on holiday, is ussually meticulate and sorts it all out for me - well I suppose thats what I pay him for. I really don't think it could have been his late submission, and if it was I am sure he would have told me.
So, has anyone else recieved a HM fine incorrectly, i.e. do they make mistakes?
And secondly, what is normal practice with regard to him paying the bloody thing if it is his fault?
Thirdly and a bit OT, isn't it wrong to charge more than it is costing them to send the letter i.e. postage and some admin time. Therefore an arbitary figure of £100 being unjust? Or does it pay for the shareholders bubbly?
Thanks in advance.
