People who claimed tax rebates through one accountancy firm have found HMRC wants its money back.
Hundreds of people across the country have been left owing significant sums of money after trusting their tax claims with just one company.Rumours spread across workplaces that a Suffolk firm called Apostle Accounting was promising to help people claim tax relief for work expenses.
Mr Osborne said that he never sent details of his expenses, but when Apostle sent back its calculations, rather than itemising his entitlements there was just one catch-all title: "allowable expenses".But two years later, Mr Osborne, from Sawtry in Cambridgeshire, said he received a letter off HMRC. "How can I have receipts of something when I do not know what they have claimed for on my behalf?" Mr Osborne said.Former Apostle client Q Martin received a £30,000 repayment demand off HMRC"On the list currently there are 800," he said."My whole life is going to have to change," she said.
Apostle Accounting was incorporated in 2012 by Zoe Goodchild who ceased to be the person with significant control in May 2023. "We have stepped up the requirement for tax agents to register with us so that we can do more due diligence checks on who they are," said Ms MacDonald. "What we have got here is, at best, Apostle not being diligent. At worst, my fear is that this is dishonesty," he said.
