I cannot change the address online because the date I moved into my home address is, oddly enough, before the date they have decided I moved in at work. I tried ringing them but, surprise surprise, I cannot get through to a person.

Bah humbug and damnation.

I've had nothing but aggro from HMRC ever since they were rebranded HMRC. All fairly minor stuff, but consistent, low-level incompetence and inadequacy and, as you said, absolutely impossible to communicate with. The Inland Revenue is a bit British Rail in that you'd never think at the time that you're look back at that era with fondness and be impressed with their relative efficiency and organisational skills. For a long time, the only means of getting hold of HMRC has been to raise a complaint, and even then it's a bit of a case of "can't help, won't help".

Argh, kill etc. That's really irritating.
