    And that's where interest free credit cards come into play ...

    Well, it just goes to prove that Hector is totally incompetent.

    I found out earlier that Hector has changed by Tax Code because of the pension payment I made last year which was an accumulation of 3 years back payments. That resulted in a tidy tax refund via my self assessment as I maxed out my higher rate contributions. I received my cheque back in June.

    So I could tell them now and not accrue it, or alternatively I could thank them for that fact they've just give me an interest free loan for around 30k until the beginning of 2017.

    Who the fook writes their systems???

    It's in my favour this time Hector. Lol.

    It's how much I'd have to pay the CSA each month if I ever split up from the wife!

    Given that the top rate of tax in NL is 52%, there may be a bit of a discrepancy.

    Don't forget to tell them who is reporting them!

    started a topic 3% Tax and the Netherlands

    3% Tax and the Netherlands

    So I got my payslip again this month, and for the second month running I paid just 3% PAYE Tax. I contacted payroll when it first happened and they said my tax code had been changed and that's why.

    Again this month, 3% tax.

    Is it because payroll is based out of the Netherlands and I'm now in the same boat as Uber or Costa Coffee? Or is it because clientco's payroll team are bloody incompetent.
