Not me, I'd never have the balls to spend anything owed to the Gov so it doesn't really help with my cashflow.Comment

Originally posted by Lance View PostI use DD both before and after MTD switchover. No issues.
I only stopped paying by DD because HMRC didn't charge fees on the old Capital on Tap card and it was a really good way to get loads of Avios (which are now worthless, hey ho).
I'll revert back to DD after my financial year end when hopefully everything will be properly reconciled.Comment

Advice I was given is not to defer unless you have a reason to. You aren't going to be making money on it so unless you need to drain every penny from the Ltd account (in which case you are in serious trouble) just get it done.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

I'm deferring for as long as possible and investing it all in Crypto. What could possibly go wrong? Scooter says so.....

I paid mine the day they announced it could be deferred but I would have paid it anyway.
I once paid VAT too early and had all sorts of strife from HMRC. They couldn’t see I had paid because it had gone into the wrong quarter and they couldn’t seem to marry up what I had paid and what I was due. They said I couldn’t get into their debt again for 12 months or I would have to pay a penalty despite me not being in debt.
I wouldn’t give them the excuse to chase me for anything now.Comment

The correct course of action in that situation is to pay the tax and make a benefits claim.Comment
