VAT invoice

[K8iekate]

Hi, 

I need to get my VAT receipts (July to September 2024) because that is for my company to claim back.  The company paid the bills. 

Looking forward to hearing from you.

You need to be on a business a/c to receive VAT receipts.

That is just wrong, how can I be a business customer when I am an employee and are claiming my expenses??

I am about to start the same fight with EE.

The VAT regulations ( 1995 No. 2518,  PART III , Regulation 13 ) entitle everyone to a VAT invoice (https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1995/2518/regulation/13/made) ... I would advise EE to read the law maybe and stop being scum bags.

This is hopeless. I also need a VAT invoice. If this isn't possible then I will have to change proivder.

Hi @andybeezer 

Thanks for coming to the community. 

Do you have a personal or business contract?

PERSONAL

I NEED A BILL TO SHOW IT IS VAT BILL. I HAVE 12 MONTHS OF VAT TO CLAIM FOR COMPANY I WORK FOR

@Nim1964  and consumer tariffs have the VAT inclusive on the bill.   To claim VAT you need to be VAT registered and have a business account.  EE don’t have to supply your bill with the VAT separately as it’s a consumer tariff.   

Even before it was shown inclusive the bill actually stated it wasn’t for VAT purposes or a VAT receipt.

Okay here's how this works if you're not a business customer. Text chat with  EE and ask for a VAT invoice. They will quote you the stuff about not being a business customer. Tell them that the 1994 VAT act legally requires all VAT registered traders to provide VAT invoices on request. They will agree (they have no choice, this is serious stuff). I am now expecting to receive my VAT invoices for the period required in the next few days. I will update again then.
