I have been offered a nice we sum on refunded commission. However, they are deducting 20% tax from the offered amount. Are they allowed to do this?

You are not being taxed on the refund of the excess commission. You are being taxed on the added interest that is paid on top of the refund.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA).
