Thinking about it overnight I was wondering if there is something incriminating within the documentation that they would need to send because an SAR really shouldn't be that difficult to deal with once you know the client. It's really just here is the paperwork we've already sent being sent again and...

[eek]

You are paying him money for a tiny amount of work done, HMRC really aren't going to care......

[eek]

£4000 whilst at university - just pay him via PAYE.

why on earth do people make things stupidly complex...

[eek]

I created a longer reply but it's basically ^^^

I would also mention that you will be passing this to the Solicitor's Regulation Authority as it would be 1 thing if MrO666 or I (neither of us are part of this) were raising frivolous SAR requests to create work but you made the request because...

[eek]

SAR will take at least a month to process - send them now as it just creates work for them to deal with...

[eek]

As I pointed out to Simon earlier that's been around in almost the same format since 9th Feb 2022.

In fact the last changes was adding "This is a rare occurrence and" removing the word recent....

[eek]

Lucy is no longer a director - she’s still working there...

[eek]

Both pocket some of the savings - I would seriously look at Giant...

[eek]

Most people don’t read the terms let alone understand them...

[eek]

the risk is the clause in the outside contract saying they can chase you to recover the tax HMRC are telling the consultancy / agency to pay.

i suspect a combination of being on a project a long time, fear of a large tax bill, no longer being able to claim expenses (regardless of the legality...

[eek]

+1 - the file meta data tells us (and the court) that you’ve created it more recently to fit your new story tells us everything action fraud will need to know.

I dont think posting much more in an open forum that is read will help....

[eek]

Except that judgment covers Channel Island law and has a few other idiosyncrasies to the extent it’s useful but not that the get out of jail card people here may wish it is....

[eek]

Thanks for that - I forgot to raise the invoice in my system for this gig this month.....

[eek]

Dan has just posted a story about Robert Venables (the QC whose opinion is at the heart of a lot of these schemes) and his tax evasion criminal case - so we may not see the other story today..

One thing to note is...

[eek]

If people are willing to pay money - why wouldn’t they take it - remember the police won’t call until a crime has been reported and until last week everyone was missing something very fundamental that Dan seems to have picked up.

As I’ve said continually for the past week - wait and...

[eek]

I’m not aware of any other options either - the short cut (if it’s an employer loan) is a Statutory Demand but that isn’t easy if it’s a CCA loan.

but reality is everything is in limbo until Dan publishes his report at which point I suspect W28 will have a different problem (past...

[eek]

everything tells me that Validoom is either the owner or a member of West 28....

[eek]

So firstly how the f*** do you know that sort of internal information

But it is why Dan’s report is so important

if the loans aren’t employer loans and therefore are subject to the CCA then the loans are illegal and not enforceable.

The great thing is that...

[eek]

You say that but i will say there is no harm in waiting a few days, seeing exactly what the report says and how people react to it.

i suspect there is enough evidence of fraud within the posters here that various people may be backtracking quickly in the hope of avoiding a very awkward...

[eek]

I suspect the firms are happy to take the money until there is a problem.

for example were PhenDi to ask Trethowans to explain how the statement is dated from before he moved to that address, Trethowans would be in a difficult position given that they now knew their client was committing...
