    Here it starts: HM Revenue & Customs Refund

    Expecting a call from my mother any moment in response to this..


    Dear Applicant:

    Following an upgrade of our computer systems and review of our records we have investigated your payments and latest tax returns over the last seven years our calculations show that you have made over payments of GBP 178.25

    Due to the high volume of refunds due you must complete the online application, the telephone help line is unable to assist with this application. In oder to process your refund you will need to complete the application form attached to this email.Your refund may take up to 6 weeks to process please make sure you complete the form correctly.

    NOTE: If you've received an Income Tax ‘repayment’ it will either be following a claim you've made or because HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) has received new information about your taxable income or entitlement to allowances. The refund may come through your tax code or as a payment and could relate to the current tax year or earlier years.

    An Income Tax repayment is a refund of tax that you've overpaid. So, if you've paid too much tax for example through your job or pension this year or in previous years HMRC will send you a repayment. You'll get the repayment by bank transfer directly to your credit or debit card.

      Don't encourage him - I'm too busy to be dealing with time-wasters.

        Ironically I did actually get a refund from HMRC this year. Only £40, but it's better than a kick in the knackers.

          Ah... that explains why they needed all my bank and credit card details, plus CVC codes, and on-line banking details.

          Still, at least I know that the credit should be arriving any day now, by one of several possible routes.

          Phew

            Me also. I received £1670 and it was in my account 5 days after submitting my SA return.

                Did you also give them your pin numbers, date of birth, mothers maiden name and national insurance number, along with 5 years of past addresses?
