      I recently filed my tax return for the most recent tax year less than 2 weeks ago and thought no more about the matter. I did notice an odd credit on the recent bank statement on Sunday, but had no time to query it before an item of post arrived today explaining the credit. HMRC have processed and refunded a slight, (barely double digit) over payment in less than 2 weeks.

      Could this be some sort of record I wonder?

        Your post reminded me that I should pull my finger out and do the hated tax return. My experience is that HMRC are very quick for returns submitted before July.

          Automated, so two weeks is still far too long. I called today regarding a cock up with two client’s 2017 Returns, where what HMRC had processed was not what was submitted. Corrected over the phone. 72 hours before it’s visible on the agent portal.

          Now, given that HMRC expect realtime updates, it’s a shame that they fail miserably to provide real time updates.

          Arch Linux, on a Ryzen 7 1800X, 32 GB, 5 (yes -5) HDs inc 5 SSDs, 4 RPi 3Bs + 1 RPi 4B - one as an NFS server with two more drives, PiHole (shut yours), Plex server, cloud server, and other random Pi stuff. Nice CoolerMaster case, 2 x NV GTX 1070 8GB, and a whopping 32" AOC 1440P monitor.
