VAT Registration query from Hector

[Bright Spark]

I received my VAT registration a couple of days back - total elapsed time was about 9 weeks. I got fed up and wrote (http://www.writetothem.com/) to my MP last week about the delay. I received the certificate the same day as MP wrote his reply - which was a letter to the chancellor! I have very powerful friends it appears...

9 weeks is not bad, I applied in April this year and received the
vat registration in the last week of August, took about 19 weeks.
I paid my first vat return on 31/10/2007, there was 5months of
backdated vat that the agency had to cough up, which took them
4 weeks for them to pay up.

My friend had similar questions. I posted my application and got the certificate back in a month. No questions
