Title: Twitter has it's uses
Post by: STMO123 on 18 April 2013, 14:04:09
My darling wife read on twitter that you could claim tax relief for union subs. Wrote a letter to the Liverpool tax office about four weeks ago and today got a letter saying that they have increased her tax code for this year, and to reflect the money owed for previous five years. A grand total of £635. Her code is now 1134L.
Pity it wasn't a cheque but you can't have everything.

You'd know if you were getting tax relief, as your tax code would reflect it. Thick northern git.

Stemo's an expert on being a thick northern git. On account of the 80 year's experience he's had, being one.
