    Not seeing......please bear in mind - That's on top of £200 + £18 per month.....what extra benefits we get for paying a straight forward APN ?
    Might be worth giving them a call to discuss your situation, that will cost nothing and allow you to make an informed decision.

    £200 deposit + £18 monthly membership fee is probably nothing compared to the amount that you owe HMRC. The BG boards there are active and informed - there's nothing here.
    It's a no-brainer - just join.

    Pondering joining BG forum.

    Besides that the Qs I have are which route should I go with them as below?

    1. APN representation alone for a fee


    2. APN repn + Tax enquiry handled for 12 months for a higher fee (double that of fee mentioned in 1)

    3. £200 deposit + £18 monthly membership fee to join the bandwagon for possible settlement (with or without litigation as the case may be which we are not sur elf at this stage).

    Point 3 , I understand there is a benefit for all affected parties to be together & liase with HMRC

    Point 1 & 2 - is there any benefit of using any representation; is there not benefit in paying the APN in one go ? Otherwise u end up paying more to HMRC + additional fees for BG or similar representation.
    Am assuming HMRC is going to add penalties as part of the amortisation over 12 months for APN. If there is any benefit - which is better between these 2 options ?

    Too many Qs there but would like
    To hear member views !!!

    If a name is not spelt correctly would that be ground for APN to be rendered invalid - has someone experienced this ?

    Also, is there a checklist of things on what we need to look at APN ?
    Probably for round about a week until they re-issued it in the correct name. That's not to say that you shouldn't get it corrected but don't expect it to change anything - just delay things slightly...
