Another big high street retailer bites the dust HUKD have just announced that HMV are possibly going into administration tomorrow. If you have any giftcards to spend, try and do it in the morning or online (if you can??)

Martin just tweeting they are now refusing gift vouchers and online you won't receive your order so you have to claim from your credit card charge back.

Thanks, I have done and sent them to him. I wasn't trying to cheat but had triple checked everything (including my grammar ) and tried amending every answer in turn.

Yup, in GfK's case to get right up the shoppers noses.
Sometimes it takes longer to do the tests than it does to do the shop.

Haha - Especcially when you nip on to print your sheets right as you're due out the door, and find there's a test to do before you can get your brief off. I had a stressful morning!

Whitelabel - did you get my email?

Hello!
Please don't get mad with me if this is the wrong place to ask this but I am filling in my first Self-assessment and I am finding it all very confusing (made worse by English not being my first language).

The only thing I have to declare is the mystery shopping assignments as I was a student up until now. However, it shows there things about business and all and I am getting lost. So, here are a few questions:

1. How many businesses do I have to declare? It's just one, right? Even if I work for several different mystery shopping companies, that is still one business, right?
2. What if I have to declare work done in a different area like computing? Will that change to 2?
3. There are several fields in the SA form where I should put £ values. However, in this case, I think that I only have to add up all the fees + reimbursements they gave me (income) and then the outcome will be all the things I have paid for + mileage + prints . Are there any more fields that I should fill in because of the MS work?

Also, does anyone know if, the interested paid in a joint account can be declared in the SA of just one of the account owners?

Thank you very much for your help!

Hi
Give the HMRC self assessment helpline a call, they are very good and I am sure they will be able to give you all the info you need.:)

Get a new one as you'll have a warranty. They are prone to failure due to the thin coated cables. Not worth missing out on work or having a technical failure as they aren't too much on their own.
