Thanks

    Probably crashed due to time of year. Their website is as weak as water. Keep on trying.
    Aside - The cynic in me says that it's deliberate to collect all of those £100 fines from inoocent people. HMRC wouldn't do that. Would they? :)

    Probably not.

    Filing deadline for most is not until the end of the month, so they would have to keep the site down an awful long time ;)

    Last year, because of a threatened strike action on 31st Jan, HMRC extended the filing deadline by 48 hours.

    But do keep the conspiracy theories coming; the 'net wouldn't be the same without them :cool:
  • Hi,

    working ok now, for me anyway.
  • Yeah it happened last year, there was problems but keep trying, you have got plenty of time!
