Anyway. Balls to it. Can't be bothered wasting energy worrying about it.

Well, I'm no expert on VAt or tax assessments, but I do know (because I've been advocating it for years) that if HMRC want, they can simply raise a tax assessment to a company, and they then must pay that, they can appeal it if they want, but they still must pay in the first place. I can't see why they don't do that to force the Starbucks and Vodafones of this world to cough up.

Anyhoo, if its like that, then you have to pay up, even if you appeal, although the sporting thing would be for HMRC to wait and see. They don't have a big rep for being sporting.

Cheers for the reply.

Assessment's don't need to have been paid to be appealed, though if it's affordable it is recommended to pay first, appeal and claim it back later. I would guess if HMRC are pushing the WUP we haven't paid while we appeal.

Who pays for these appeals? Marc green? I wonder how much he's throwing away in the courts appealing all these winding up orders?

We're not very successful at appeals are we and i'm utterly fed up of these WUP

The appeal (against the VAT Assessment) itself doesn't cost anything, regardless if it's to HMRC or a Tribunal. The only cost involved would be for any representation. Bearing in mind he has his own other companies as well as the Club, I would suggest Mr Green would have accountants capable of dealing with this on his staff somewhere anyway.

If we win this appeal do we get our 6 points back?
