Phone calls to the Helpdesk will be dealt with as a matter of priority. Call Backs, Faxes and Emails to the Helpdesk will be answered before the end of the working day and is a recommended way of contacting the Helpdesk if the query is non-urgent. The Helpdesk consists of more than one person, so please do not expect to always speak to the same person, as they may be busy on another call. Also, no call backs will be accepted if other staff are able to help.
Please note that the Helpdesk do not deal with HMRC queries or hardware based issues with your system, these are either handled by HMRC directly or with your own I.T. Dept.
