So a member of staff used the new online VAT registration process this morning. The activities box has to be completed and in this case was for a sheep farmer. There is no drop down facility, so you have to guess what to enter. Tried "farming activities" - no good - tried "sheep" - no good - then luckily tried "farm". That then showed a heading with a variety of activities including "sheep". Is the search function really that bad that it did not pick out "farm" in "farming" for the heading or "sheep" as a sub-heading? I can see this being a nightmare in the future trying to quess exactly the word the programmers have used to make up the list.

You ought to try.......
......General Builder - I just did, and I had to scroll through 177 options. I gave up in the end, and just clicked on anything.
change of name
they also want to know when you changed your name if you ever have. Luckily, when I did this recently for a client, she also happened to be a very good friend whose wedding I attended, but having to ask clients for date of marriage is going to be a bore.
And can we no longer print the form off to allow our client to check it before pressing the submit button?
