phoning the tax office

mosstopher

Phoned the payment line (0845 366 1204) today to try set up a repayment plan, upon finally getting through i got a recorded message to enter account number, I maybe just being dense here but where do i find it? i tried keying in my tax reference (as shown on my payment form) but it says its the wrong one. no other information is given and if i dont key anything in i get told to phone customer services and then hung up on but no number to phone. Can anyone help?

Don't know if this is appropriate for you but you may as well speak to them anyway as you never know.

Business Payment Support Service - 0845 302 1435

I rang about an hour ago and got through to a human being immediately who let me split my tax bill up into ten equal monthly payments beginning end of feb, so they may be able to cut you some slack too. Didn't ask for any details of income or expenditure etc, just asked what I could afford.

Hopefully they will be able to help. Link to their page is http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/pbr2008/business-payment.htm

It's 10 x numerics followed by a 'K'. But - as post #2 - you're better ringing the Payment Support Service number.
