I thought we'd hit the top in stupid coding notices from the current mess. We have an actor client whose income in 2008/09 comprised £1,000 or so for a small job on the BBC's Casualty. They received a code of D0 for their 2010/11 employments with the BBC. Almost too funny to bother with.
But in today's post we have a late entrant for most stupid notice of coding as another person who has taken early retirement (on a £5k/year pension), got a D0 coding for their Job Seekers Allowance. What? Why? How?
Anything dafter out there?

4 codes for same employer
I have a client who has had his allowance split 4 ways and sent in 4 codes to his employer. Presumably they will not allow the employer to add the four together....
Deceased
I still think codes for Mrs * *****(deceased) take some beating. You really would thing the word "deceased" in the name would give them a clue, certainly after 5 years.
Delays...
And now, in today's post are two codes dated 9 JANUARY!!!
They REALLY need to sort themselves out.
whats good for the goose
They should be fined £5,000 for every incorrect code they issue.......................
