Hello,
Today I called this number: +441619319070 asking them about my taxes for the following years: 2015-2016 and 2016-2017. I was told they couldn’t help me and redirected me to this address: HM R&C, Benton Park View, Newcastle Upon Tyne, NE98 1ZZ.
A few days ago, I received a cheque for the years 2017-2018 (the cheque was sent to an address in the U.K. and, I wasn’t in the U.K. anymore so, they cancelled the old one they sent me a new one to Romania).
There isn’t a way for me to contact anyone by using this number: +44 0300 200 3300. An answering machine was telling me that the phone was disconnected.
I am calling from Romania.
