Does anyone know the name and postal address of HMRC's Data controller?
I believe they are holding incorrect details for a client and I would like to write to their data controller to get this corrected. Having applied to register a client for VAT and transfer the vat number I have received a rather waste of time letter explaining that they are unable to verify the client from the information provided. They have provided the data we sent and it has again been confirmed that this is correct (As seen on MLID). The annoying bit is that any quango would be able to identify the client from his existing VAT number anyway, so not only do I believe that there is a deliberate obstruction from HMRC in transferring the VAT number, I also believe they are holding incorrect personal data.
