Morning! Sorry you couldn't sleep. Me neither! We could have had a conversation at 3am...
I think lucky has hit the nail on the head, the dance teacher is running scared. Maybe she'll think twice before bullying DD next time.
I couldn't get onto £bay yesterday, it kept timing out. Very annoying!

Yes Piq, we could have had a bleary eyed chat couldnt we ?!
I am hoping she is running scared, I will just continue to bombard her with phone calls. It will be interesting to see what the next dance lesson brings !
Ebay was busy yesterday, I had a few problems as well.

Grrrrr to dance teacher, she is obviously running scared. All bullies are when faced with someone 'the same size or bigger'.
Poor Mr PG and his acidic tea. It did make me smile though - is that wrong?
I hope your car starts and you have a good day Xx
Everything does seem worse at night although there was nothing particularly worrying that was keeping me awake just silly daft things I could do nothing about at 3am !
You are allowed to smile at Mr PG's Acidic Tea, I wont hold it against you !! :rotfl:LBM July 2011 - Finally took control Nov 2011 DFD Sometime in the distant future ! :eek:

And the dreaded Inland Revenue have just sent another demand.
The letter begins with
"We are sure that you believe in businesses paying their taxes " Yes I suppose I do. We are trying and we are paying, something, not all of it, but as much as we can.
"Your Company Owes us Coperation Tax." Yes I am well aware of that thankyou
"You can resolve this by contancting us now " We have and you wouldnt come to any agreement with us
"Its easy to pay if you havent already done so " Its easy to pay if you have the money, if you dont its really not quite that simple ! We dont have it, we have explained why ,but we are trying !
By the way we are charging you daily interest.Thankyou, that helps !
Dont ignore us ! We arent ignoring you, but you wouldnt talk to us !
What dont they get ?!!
So, looks like more letter writing for me today then !!LBM July 2011 - Finally took control Nov 2011 DFD Sometime in the distant future ! :eek:

Just remind them, they can't have what you don't have, you are working towards it and if that's not quick enough for them there is nothing else you can do.
I worked for them (Taxcredits) when I was a student and if it's slightly different to what the system expects it just won't accept it, it was awful. The letter was probably automated, just stay calm with them and offer to send them a SoA if it doesn't go well but remind them that your cashflow is non standard and not to expect any changes. :grouphug:HSBC CC - £3000 / £3000

They have had so many letters and explanations its crazy, but I have sent another.
Thankfully it isn't worrying me, been there and done that. It's just irritated me.
Anyway another £70 paid to THEM this morning, giving them a total of £1300 since the bill was due in October.

AAAgghhhh..don't you just hate standardised systems like this. Its nuts when clearly you are making small but frequent payments. NL was/is having the same issue and another friend of mine has not had the right tax code, first time in last 7 years..something to do with having a widowers pension and hes only 45..well it can't be that unusual (unfortunately!) can it??!
Only glad I don't work there..that and the JC would probably be my job from hell...oh or gutting chickens. Fish yes, Chickens no..MFiT-T4 Member No. 96 - 2022 is my MF goal
