Dear Taxpayer,
After the last annual calculations of your fiscal activity we have discovered that
you are eligible to receive a tax refund of £282.50. Kindly complete the tax refund
request and allow 2-3 working days to process it.
A refund can be delayed for a variety of reasons. For example submitting invalid
records or applying after the deadline. To access the form for your tax refund,

Deliberate wrong inputs are criminally pursued and persecuted.
Thank You.
