A recent investigation by Parliament has uncovered an ongoing catalogue of poor service by the taxman. Following on from a long list of errors by HMRC which have meant many taxpayers receiving excessive demands for tax, the report has found:
- people waiting up to three months for a reply to a simple letter
- less than half of telephone calls to HMRC offices are answered
- even if they do get through many callers are left on hold for minutes on end
- the transfer of HMRC’s advice service online means the elderly and others who lack access to the internet or find new technology daunting are unable to get help
- information and advice given by inexperienced HMRC staff is regularly wrong.
