Tescos Owe Me A Receipt

[Elton]

Fiver says I will.

 

I'm VAT registered and, AFAIK, have to have that receipt to claim back my VAT.

 

The transaction will be on my bank statement and, if it's a cut and dry case, I'll speak to a solicitor.

 

That way, I'll get my receipt (which is all I want!!!!), my solicitor fees and payment for my time.

 

The whole thing is daft. I haven't shopped at Tescos since and used to use that store weekly!!!

Why is it that in petrol stations you always have to ask for a receipt?

Shops give them automatic.

I need fuel receipts as my mate is VAT registered and he claims back the VAT.

[Elton]

LOL That's not the reason to claim back VAT! Unless you're doing legit work for him.

 

Over a certain turnover, a business is supposed to offer a VAT receipt, I believe.

[Guest Ferret1959]

It's for fuel for his lorry that I drive for 'pleasure'.

 

My mate is totally legit, he owns a haulage firm.

[Elton]

If you want to claim back the VAT, you need to be driving it for business.

 

'Pleasure' is a word that HM Customs & Excise doesn't recognise!!!!

Just spotted this. I have worked for Tesco for 15½ years. I will ask some-one to deal with it next week Elton. I can't make any promises, but I know one or two switched on people who should be able to pick it up.

My 'pleasure', his business.

Ummmmmmmmmmm, not wanting to put a stop for your crusade about the reciept but you are entitled to make a claim for VAT rebate without providing evidence of purchase... ie a receipt as long as the total amount you claim per tax year is under (I think) £300 and you have made the purchase by way of an automated machine.....

 

Notwithstanding this Tescos are under a duty to provide you with a receipt but hey.....

 

Pay Peanuts.......... employ monkies

Elton - you have a PM (and an e-mail). Cheers.

You having to use the Woodbridge Co-op or that amazing chain called Sainsburys (and thats not to close to you) then Elton!!!!!!

 

Any trader can become Vat registered.

If you Import or Export goods you have to have a Vat number.

If your company turns over 30K or more a year you have to be Vat registered.
