Request for savings info

Following info from HMRC I rang to ask for info forwarded to HMRC. I spoke to David who acceded to my request. He was very polite and helpful. Unfortunately the info I received (not from him) was not relevant. A second phone call resolved the matter. Reviewed on: 17th February 2023
