Hi

 

I need to establish whether this question has anything to do with the UK - did you buy anything from the UK - where did you claim a refund from ?

 

Thanks


Sam

Customer replied 774 days and 14 hours ago.

yes, my sister visited me and she bought something from different shops, and we do the tax refund in the Heathrow ariport, and they had confirmed us the refund amount and the refund day by 30 Jan 2011, by then, they will return all the money to my account. but till now 40% still missing.

I want to check the progress from your organisation, thank.

Hi

 

Thanks for your question

 

It would seem that the retailer/refund company have charged you costs for processing this refund.

These charges should be shown on the refund form you were provided with.

 

Thanks

Hi Siwai

 

This site does not deal with VAT refunds this is UK tax forum and you would have been advised how your refund would be processed, either through the shop of through refund company.

 

Its whoever you posted the form to and its the retailer that you have to chase up see link here from Customs leaflet

 

10.How do I obtain my refund?

After your VAT refund form has been certified by Customs you can either:

  • post the form back to the retailer to arrange payment of your refund;
  • post the form back to a commercial refund company to arrange payment of your refund;
  • hand your form to a refund booth to arrange immediate payment.

Whichever method is used should have been agreed between yourself and the retailer when you bought the goods.

Your refund may be reduced by an administration charge. This charge should be clearly shown on your refund form.

If you do not receive your refund within a reasonable time you should write to the retailer - not to Customs and Excise

 

Thanks

 

Sam
