CLAIM YOUR HMRC TAX REBATE WITH ACCOUNTED
A tax rebate (or tax refund) is money that you reclaim from HM Revenue & Customs if you've paid too much tax.
Travel tax refunds are a great example of how you can claim more of what you earn. If you pay for your travel to get to temporary workplaces, you can claim back tax on those expenses.
Accounted eliminates unnecessary stress and strenuosity out of dealing with the taxman and what his debt is to you. Furthermore, a typical refund can very easily be £2,500+.

Am I owed a tax rebate?
Many of your everyday costs from doing your job can be used to reduce the tax you pay which you can claim a yearly refund on. There are many more reasons why you might have paid too much tax, leaving thousands of people wondering “Am I due some tax back?” - and many thousands more simply never even realising they can claim.
This is YOUR money, and you’re leaving it in the taxman’s pocket if you don’t claim it back.

Who can get a rebate?
Getting back what you are due means giving HMRC all the information they need to realise you’re owed money. If you’ve got work expenses he doesn’t know about, for example, he can’t factor them into his calculations. Work travel costs are a big part of most refund claims, but you have to keep good records to show HMRC what you’ve spent. The same goes for your other essential costs, from food and accommodation on the road to repairing or replacing any of your important gear or tools. This is why the best start to making your claim is to talk to our experts as Accounted.
