I think HMRC won't provide the figure until they get the final trust accounts from MTM. Happy to be corrected on this.
If you ask MTM, they will calculate your potential liabilty. I have a request in to provide this data and was told i could expect a figure in about a weeks time. I am not sticking my head in the sand anymore, I want to know what the figure is, so I can start planning a course of action if the wheel falls off.
I am also seeking independent advice on the best way to manage the demand if it becomes clear (to me anyway) that I have to cough up. |

That is what HMRC rely on - they are thugs! But they will not necessarily win.
I dont see how it can be over for you? If you can't afford the CTD then even if you agree an amount now - how would you pay it? |

Poppy, I agree with Brill, they thrive off fear and people paying just to make them go away. If they didnt have a Crown on their crest I think you might feel differently. For instance, if ABC Loans decided you owe them such and such but their contract had a legal loophole in it, would you be willing to concede so fast? I suspect not, try to think of it in those terms....
Be strong  |

So this thread has reached the 500 mark in remarkably quick time.
Anyone care to summarize?

I very rarely wish it was a thousand years ago....However a battle to the death with the paymaster general in an arena with a claymore and shield....civilised PAH!, on very rare occassions I prefer barbarian please! Their way of settling things seemed so much more exciting at time, strongest survive, simple stuff  |
