Tax credits helpline

Is anyone else having trouble getting through? I have been trying different times and different options but cant get through.

Its costing quite a bit to keep calling them, an 8 minute call costing 80p, doing that a fair few times a day is mounting up and I eed to change my work details.

Am I able to do it in writing?

  • Ring this number 02890 538192. It is the same process of listening to that annoying woman and pressing various options but hopefully you can call it for free or cheaper than the 0845 number.

    0845 is a local rate number from a landline, not sure from a mobile. 02890 is the code for the Belfast area.
