Found out that it was the way they typed out the invoice... They had printed the VAT on the goods and VAT on the postage and packing but most companys simply show the VAT amount right at the bottom just before the total amount. ------------- Always remember that you're unique.

apart from zero rated, the only thing not charged at 17.5% is domestic gas and electricity (5%) ------------- They say Kesey's dead; But never trust a prankster;even underground. |
