"The work that was done for the money charged was worth every penny"

We can't thank Wayne enough. The paperwork that was presented to HMRC was to a very high standard. We were kept up to date with correspondence. The work that was done for the money charged was worth every penny.

They are also lovely people to deal with and make things simple for your claim.

​"A first class service I cannot recommend highly enough."

There are times during a self build project when you should engage expert help, and this is one you should do first.

A first class service I cannot recommend highly enough. Their experience and guidance is invaluable.

Peace of mind throughout your build, and a welcome bonus to finish.

Thank you.

"The fee charged was a minimal amount for the work incurred ..."

We highly recommend employing the services of “Claim it back VAT” to claim the vat due on completion of a self build project. 

We first thought that we would be capable of making the application ourselves, but as the build progressed it became more apparent that it was beyond our capabilities bearing in mind the amounts of money involved.  We felt that any lack of knowledge of the system could have caused the loss of a substantial amount of money,

The fee charged was a minimal amount for the work incurred and there were no additional fees whatsoever when problems arose and had to be sorted.

Wayne and his partner were very professional and approachable and nothing was too much trouble. 

Contrary to the information on HMRC website our application took approximate 6 months to be settled and this was very frustrating for us and Wayne, but he could do little more than keep ascertaining the current situation with them.

We will undoubtedly be doing a further project sometime in the future and they will be our first choice.

"This company is truly outstanding!"

This company is truly outstanding!! To say they earn their very cheap charge is an understatement. Wayne is on the ball constantly they fight your corner and keep you constantly updated. To say they will save you thousands of pounds is an understatement. I personally can not recommend them highly enough. We completed a barn conversion and instructed this company to deal with not only the complicated vat claim but also you can’t make a mistake. If you mess up your claim can be lost. Don’t take the risk use this company truly, genuinely, superb!!!

"He dealt with my case superbly from start to finish..."

I can’t thank Wayne and claim it back vat refunds enough! He dealt with my case superbly from start to finish and took away any uncertainty I had about the process as I had never made a claim before after the construction of my new build house!

Extremely professional and always answered any questions I had instantly . Great knowledge of how hmrc deal with this type of thing.

Very well run and professional service.

"Let the professionals do what they do best."

Absolutely amazing service. Nothing is too much trouble. Everything was explained clearly, they worked through a mountain of invoices and advised what needed changing, correcting, updating etc. We received prompt responses and they made the process so much easier than if I had tried to do it myself. HMRC did take some time to process our claim (nothing to do with Wayne & Co), but we have finally received confirmation that they have approved our claim in full. I certainly recommend using Wayne & Co as their fee is reasonable and it is worth every penny. Let the professionals do what they do best.

Lucy Moran

"Your fee paid for itself in the first week!"

I can’t tell you how grateful I am for your handling of my self build vat reclaim caseThere’s no way i would have come remotely close to recovering the amount you did - and even if I tried it would have cost me 10 times the timeYour fee paid for itself in the first week! Please feel free to use my details in any testimonials I cannot recommend you and your team highly enough

Steve Jones

"I was really pleased with the services provided by Claim It Back VAT refunds."

I was really pleased with the services provided by Claim It Back VAT refunds. I am sure that if I didn't use them, I would have missed out a lot of the VAT refund, as many of my receipts from companies were not correctly done, but Claim It Back pointed them all out and new ones were then obtained.

I would definitely recommend them.

Robert Dunoyer

"My claim was successful in full through his endeavours..."

Wayne gives a no nonsense service and his knowledge of what he does serves clients well.

My claim was successful in full through his endeavours and cannot imagine submitting a claim for the vat back on a new house build without him.

Pink Anderson

"such lovely people to deal with and they provide an excellent service."

We can't thank Wayne and team enough, such lovely people to deal with and they provide an excellent service.

They are so helpful and always make time for you. We definitely recommend using their services as their fees are extremely reasonable compared to other companies. Thanks again to Wayne and the team!

"...we would recommend Claim It Back Refunds to anybody!"

Thank goodness for Claim It Back VAT Refunds - we couldn't have done it without you! Wayne went through the paperwork we sent with a fine tooth comb and picked up a lot of things which we didn't notice/weren't aware of and we are convinced that we would not have had the outcome we did, would we have attempted to do it ourselves.

We were delighted to be advised by the HMRC just before Christmas that we would receive the money shortly. Communication throughout the process was outstanding and we would recommend Claim It Back Refunds to anybody! For the amount of work this involved for the team the fee was also very reasonable!

Sylvia Hopkins

"Just best service you could ask for. "

Just best service you could ask for. I'm so glad I used Wayne for the vat return for my self build. He made it so easy and was an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Many thanks.

Dean Davies

"I seriously was amazed at what Wayne and his team could claim back for me."

What a great service Wayne and his team give, great communication all through the process. If you are doing a barn conversion like us or a brand-new self-build these are the guys to sort out your vat refund. I seriously was amazed at what Wayne and his team could claim back for me. The claim back I would have lost through doing it myself far outweighs Wayne’s costs. It’s a no brainer…

Diane Kaye

"100% recommend Claim it back VAT refunds, I wish I knew they existed sooner. "

Wayne was brilliant! I can’t recommend him and the team highly enough. I was dreading collating and completing the VAT reclaim for our barn conversion but with Wayne’s help and guidance the claim sailed through.

100% recommend Claim it back VAT refunds, I wish I knew they existed sooner. Thank you so much!

"There are many investments we made during our self build and in terms of the returns and peace of mind this was easily one of the best!"

We worked with Claim is Back on a particularly tricky Self Build VAT Reclaim and couldn't have been happier with the result. The attention to detail and persistence were enormously appreciated and the result was a significant refund from HMRC. There are many investments we made during our self build and in terms of the returns and peace of mind this was easily one of the best! Thanks to Wayne and his team for his hard work and support.

Chris Kitchener

"This service is outstanding very methodical ,careful, well presented in my claim, which was paid out in full."

This service is outstanding very methodical ,careful, well presented in my claim, which was paid out in full. Before your self build starts, I would speak with the team at "Claim it Back" they could have got me a bigger refund if I had been better informed and also preventing some of my suppliers/contractors from charging VAT that should not have. I would highly recommend these guys, great service!

Bill Turner

"First class service, nothing is too much trouble."

First class service, nothing is too much trouble. Great knowledge of the whole process. Don't go anywhere else.

Richard Magee

"I can not recommend him enough. The best value for money of the whole project. Thank you to you both."

Fantastic service. In the stresses of a self build, the thought of submitting our own VAT claim was a step too far! Wayne guided us all the way through, patient and supportive, dealing with every receipt we gave him.

His knowledge, efficiency, advice and attention to detail ensured our claim was correctly submitted, no queries from HMRC, and paid in full! I can not recommend him enough. The best value for money of the whole project.

Thank you to you both.

"Excellent service. We received full recovery of VAT claim. "

Excellent service. We received full recovery of VAT claim. Well worth using Claim It Back as our claim was in a bit of a mess when trying to do ourselves and Claim it Back sorted it out brilliantly.

David Maude

"Absolute 1st class service, taken away so much of the stress and strain"

Absolute 1st class service, taken away so much of the stress and strain, no hesitation in recommending, using an expert like Wayne is worth every penny and with his help and knowledge he ensured we were able to claim everything we were due as the rules and guidelines from HMRC are not easy to understand.

Mark

"...so pleased I came across CIB, the best money I’ve spent in a long time."

Wayne and team provided me an amazing service. Managing a new build project is hard enough without the nightmare minefield of the HMRC VAT reclaim. All I had to do was collate all the receipts and send them off and answer a few queries from Wayne. Wayne submitted my claim and bingo, repayed in full in only 5 weeks.

The team identified what was and wasn’t reclaimable on hundreds of invoices and spotted several other helpful matters.I’m so pleased I came across Claim IT Back, the best money I’ve spent in a long time.

Thank you Wayne and team brilliant service!

Simon Wood

"...extremely professional, very thorough and knowledgeable..."

I used Claim it Back Vat refunds after completion of my barn conversion and found them extremely professional, very thorough and knowledgeable about what was required and completely took the stress out of the refund process.I was very happy with the cost of the experience and would highly recommend them to anyone!

Don’t even think of doing it on your own it was so easy and quick.

Christopher Hoare

"...Claim it back were so outstanding we had to share our opinion...."

First of all we never do reviews, but on this occasion the team at Claim it back were so outstanding we had to share our opinion. Wayne and the team replied promptly to every query and without fuse successfully recovered our whole claim. Outstanding service.

Raymond Barlow

"Brilliant service and company, I would highly recommend!"

My husband and I used Wayne for our VAT reclaim and we are glad we did!Wayne and his team were quick, efficient and helpful the whole way through. With great communication, letting us know every step of what to do, what we need and how long things will take.We got the full expected amount, which we definitely wouldn’t have got if we did this claim ourselves! Brilliant service and company, I would highly recommend!​

"if every company worked like this then wouldn't everything just be easy"

This is simple ,if every company worked like this then wouldn't everything just be easy .The process was not complicated and I felt at ease through the whole process .Everything is explained and the stress taken away.

Highly recommend this business

David Lennox

"I would thoroughly recommend anyone doing a self build to employ Claim It Back VAT Refunds"

At first I was reluctant to employ someone else to do my VAT claim back for my self build, but I’m glad to say I picked up a leaflet for Claim It Back VAT Refunds at a self build show, it was well worth the fee paid.

Wayne from Claim It Back VAT Refunds has done a stellar job, he took all my invoices and sorted out what I could and couldn’t claim, he advised me where I’d been charged VAT when I shouldn’t and helped in getting that refunded in itself, which saved me thousands, then he was very professional in submitting my claim and when HMRC returned some of the invoices as not acceptable Wayne could have just left it at that, but as far as I’m concerned he went above and beyond and repeatedly resubmitted the rejected claims as he stated that HMRC had made a mistake and eventually they agreed with Wayne and paid out all I was entitled to, again amounting to a further hundreds of pounds that I could have lost.

I would thoroughly recommend anyone doing a self build to employ Claim It Back VAT Refunds to look after their VAT claims, you won’t be disappointed

A highly recommended service and, for us, indispensable. We were so impressed with the efficiency and prompt response, communication was excellent, we were kept informed every step of the way, documentation and advice was clear, helpful, concise and accurate. The personnel are a real pleasure to deal with, accessible, helpful, reassuring, professional, informed and efficient. The very modest fee is the best money you will ever spend, worth every penny.​

Sally Dingle

"We have had excellent service from Wayne at Claim it back VAT refunds. "

We have had excellent service from Wayne at Claim it back VAT refunds. Self-building is a stressful process and the thought of getting our VAT claim wrong - with only one attempt at it with HMRC - added to the worry.

Having been recommended Claim it back from a fellow self-builder we made contact and from the first moment the process was so helpful and made us feel confident our claim would go through.

Nothing was too much trouble and we had many follow up queries with some of our invoices.Would highly recommend their services, the best £349 we’ve spent !!

T A Healey​

"With their vast knowledge and absolute proficiency in VAT refunds from HMRC, they are well worth every penny!"

I cannot praise both Wayne and Lorraine of Claim It Back VAT Refunds enough for their total professionalism, efficiency, guidance and expertise. They have made my VAT reclaim from HMRC a breeze. There were a few small issues with my invoices due to suppliers, but they helped me deal with them successfully. HMRC even paid my VAT refund faster than expected and this is 100 percent due to Wayne and Lorraine’s ability to ensure that my application would be processed without a hitch.Before I knew of Claim It Back VAT Refunds, as a first time self-builder, I was unsure of the VAT reclaim process with HMRC. Having both Wayne and Lorraine to guide me was very reassuring. With their vast knowledge and absolute proficiency in VAT refunds from HMRC, they are well worth every penny! Thank you Claim It Back VAT Refunds!!

"Absolutely fabulous service from beginning to end. "

"Excellent service from Wayne at Claim It Back VAT Refunds... "

Excellent service from Wayne at Claim It Back VAT Refunds for our new build home vat reclaim. He certainly knows his stuff and was very efficient with our application and at helping with a few errors we had from retailers.

Sarah Pemble

"Using Claim it Back is a no-brainer. You'll be delighted with the results and you'll get your VAT back! "

Wow!! Claim It Back was amazing. We would highly recommend their services to claim back your 20% VAT for new construction.They simplified what could have been an extremely overwhelming process.

They were clear, communicative, responsive and extremely patient. There are so many ins and outs to know and with Claim It Back, you don't have to learn it all. Just follow their guidance and it's easy-peasy.

We received our approval confirmation letter from HMRC within two weeks of Claim It Back submitting our completed application, notifying us the funds will be in our account in 10 days. We can't thank them enough for this amazing service. My recommendation to anyone considering using them is to get started with them early. They'll help you either way, but getting organized early helps not lose track of some of your expenses. Trust me, it can happen! Using Claim it Back is a no-brainer. You'll be delighted with the results and you'll get your VAT back!

"I would not hesitate to use these guys again. Excellent service."

I recently used the services of Claim It Back VAT Refunds as i was building a new property in Buckinghamshire

Wayne and the team guided me through every process with the minimum of fuss and handled all my questions expertly. Even due to delays on my behalf getting final items across, Wayne explained things in a very calm and clear manner. I would not hesitate to use these guys againExcellent service

Mark Foster

"We would certainly recommend Claim It Back to anyone with a New Build..."

Having gone through a new build (forever home) process, we were at the stage to action the claim for VAT. 

We met Wayne at the Self build exhibition at Harrogate.

Wayne / Lorraine and the team at “Claimitbackvatrefunds” provide an exceptional service, without doubt one of the best tax related services we have ever experienced.  The team removed the stress of this aspect of the project.

We would certainly recommend Claim it Back to anyone with a New Build project.  We would also recommend engaging with Wayne and the team as early as possible in the process.  10/10 from us. Excellent value for money.

Sincere Thanks

Dave & Sally Knight

"If I had taken their advice earlier would have been better for us"

Wayne and Lorraine provide a first class service. Used for first self build VAT reclaim. Attention to detail and quick turn around. Final result better than expected. If I had taken their advice earlier would have been better for us.

I strongly recommend using Claim it back. Hard to see how a better service could be given!

Jonathan Mallinson

"They were worth every penny we paid them & I absolutely would not hesitate to use them again."

Highly recommend this company. I contacted them at the end of our self build to assist with our VAT reclaim, my only regret is that I wished I’d contacted them at the beginning! I’d naively thought I’d save money by submitting the reclaim myself however time constraints dictated otherwise. They were worth every penny we paid them & I absolutely would not hesitate to use them again.

Carly Hardcastle

"An outstanding professional service for a very reasonable fee which has literally saved us tens of thousands of pounds."

If you are reading these reviews trying to decide whether you actually need someone else to claim back the VAT for your building project and whether that someone should be Claim It Back VAT Refunds, the answer to both questions is a resounding YES! Wayne helped us claim back 100% of the VAT claimed on our self build conversion from HMRC by successfully and promptly adding and sorting all our invoices, then preparing and submitting the claim. Not only that but Wayne’s advice helped us recoup thousands of pounds directly from our contractors who had over charged us by incorrectly applying the standard VAT rate instead of the correct reduced 5%. There is no way we could have achieved this result without their help. An outstanding professional service for a very reasonable fee which has literally saved us tens of thousands of pounds. Thanks a million!​​

Mark Smyth

"Couldn’t fault the service. And a great price"

Couldn’t fault the service. And a great price. Thank you Wayne

"Wayne and Lorraine have provided outstanding service ..."

On completion of my new build I was told that I could reclaim VAT on a self build project and was recommended by a friend to seek help from Claim It Back. Wayne and Lorraine have provided outstanding service and I certainly could not have achieved my goal of reclaiming VAT without their help. All my queries have been answered promptly, efficiently and effectively. I would recommend Claim it Back unreservedly to all self builders.

Mary Cobb

"Communication excellent and obviously very experienced with the process and finer details."

A first class company - very highly recommend. We considered attempting to claim back VAT for our new build ourselves but soon decided to invest in professionals to do this on our behalf! Money very well spent!! Feel we have saved so much time effort and stress and have managed to reclaim every thing we are entitled to by doing this. Communication excellent and obviously very experienced with the process and finer details.

Debby Middle

"My advice to anyone undertaking a conversion is to use Claimitback.. "

I am not one to leave reviews unless exceptional. We started our conversion without knowing we could claim back VAT. As a result our paperwork needed a LOT of sorting out. Wayne helped us to resolve various issues around format/proof of purchase etc. Also he helped us claim back VAT that we thought was ineligible which was an added bonus!Once submitted HMRC lost documentation and challenged some of the claim. Wayne also resolved these issues. A FIRST class service and his knowledge, experience and patience was excellent in navigating the minefield.

My advice to anyone undertaking a conversion is to use Claimitback, however I would recommend contacting them before the conversion for advice so you can avoid some of our pitfalls regarding retaining invoice copies, format, what can be claimed etc to ease the application.

"They are supremely competent as well as being the kindest most helpful people."

I highly recommend this company. They are supremely competent as well as being the kindest most helpful people. This is such a difficult process to navigate for the lay man; do seek their help early on so that you know exactly what information you will need and get proper invoices for every thing.

Don't try and do it yourself you only get One chance with Hmrc, sit back and enjoy you new HOME its a no-brainer.

​Andrew Butler

"I definitely recommend Wayne and his company. You won't be disappointed."

I can't recommend this company highly enough. Their fee is incredibly modest for the amount of work they do. Unlike other tax refund companies who charge a success-related high percentage fee, Wayne charges a one-off low fixed fee at the outset. It is well worth it for the amount of work he does. My claim took almost almost three years (don't ask - but certainly not Wayne's fault as he was always very responsive). Eventually the claim was accepted by HMRC, with a very healthy refund of several thousand pounds. My situation was far from straightforward, plus there were dozens if not hundreds of receipts, some of them really small, but Wayne went through them all methodically, working out which ones were claimable and sorting them all into spreadsheets. I would never have had the patience or knowledge to do that! I definitely recommend Wayne and his company. You won't be disappointed.

​Andrew Goldstone

​"​Absolutely brilliant support and service all the way through our lengthy and complicated project..."

​Absolutely brilliant support and service all the way through our lengthy and complicated project, even during the dreaded times of covid. Every question was answered promptly and advice given when requested during the almost three-year timescale. Support when dealing with suppliers was excellent too, and we couldn't recommend Claim It Back highly enough!

​Rick Orme

​"...the result - a standing testament to their professionalism & diligence. A complete refund!"

It is with huge appreciation that I write this review for Lorraine & Wayne. at Claim It Back VAT Refunds. From my first conversation with Lorraine, I felt assured and confident with our decision to use their expertise to deal with our rather complex VAT refund. With every step, each query I had was dealt with, with great patience and understanding, the result - a standing testament to their professionalism & diligence. A complete refund! Thank you for the encouragement, great and vital communication and for making our part as simple as was possible! It has been a real pleasure, the whole process, thanks to your friendliness, honesty & hard work. Thank you.

"I can't recommend them enough."

From Start to finish and everything in-between, Claim it Back and Wayne have been 100% responsive, clear advice and instruction along with an amazingly fast response to emails. Highly knowledgeable on what you can and can not claim for explained easily .. I can't recommend them enough.

Francis Ingleston

​"...constant communication for a stress free VAT on new build recovery company"

Excellent service from the first phone call to the final full payment they were prompt in responding and professional in every way. A one off fee that is actually surprisingly cheap for the amount of work they do. I would not even attempt to do what they achieved in a very short time. Don’t hesitate to use this company. No hidden fees, no issues and constant communication for a stress free VAT on new build recovery company.

Ady Green

​"...I'm beyond impressed. It's the best value for money of any service we used during the whole build."

Absolutely amazing. What would we have done without Wayne? I usually do my own admin and spent a while wondering if I could do this myself. I also couldn't work out how to choose between the different companies that offer the service and worried that Claim It Back were one of the cheaper options. But we 100% needed them and there is no way that any other company would have been better. At every step and with every question, they were helpful, quick, informed and on my side. They provided letters, lists and answers to queries to make sure I got every invoice that I could possibly include. They took over all of the official paperwork and now that our claim is complete, I would say that we got back well over £5,000 that we wouldn't have claimed otherwise (and far, far quicker). I can't say enough nice things - I'm beyond impressed. It's the best value for money of any service we used during the whole build. Thank you thank you thank you!

​"I found Claim it Back online and OMG what an amazing service you get from start to finish!"

​Following a lengthy self build the last thing I wanted to do was deal with HMRC to claim back the VAT. I found Claim it Back online and OMG what an amazing service you get from start to finish! Send off your invoices and they literally do it all for you, then give you a detailed list of what you can and can’t claim, even letters to help with suppliers for incorrectly charged VAT, full liaison with HMRC and all for such amazing value for money! Can’t fault anything, thank you Wayne, much appreciated

"When HMRC made the process challenging after we submitted our claim, Wayne’s knowledge & professionalism saved us a great deal of stress..."

We recently used Claim It Back VAT Refunds to assist with our VAT refund under the DIY Housebuilders Scheme for new builds & we couldn’t be more grateful for their expertise. What initially seemed like a straightforward process quickly became complicated, but Wayne guided us every step of the way.

When HMRC made the process challenging after we submitted our claim, Wayne’s knowledge & professionalism saved us a great deal of stress, turning what could have been an overwhelming experience into a smooth one. Not only did he handle the paperwork efficiently, but he also went above & beyond by communicating with suppliers on our behalf, ensuring that everything was in order.

For the money, their service is absolutely worth it & we highly recommend them to anyone navigating the VAT refund claim process.

Thank you again for your outstanding support!

"Lots of issues to resolve as we went along but it was never a problem for them."​

Really pleased to have HMRC just confirm my refund. Claim It Back Refunds have worked through everything brilliantly and to schedule. Lots of issues to resolve as we went along but it was never a problem for them.

I'd thoroughly recommend their service and suggest anybody doing a self-build gets in touch early in the process to smooth things along.

Absolutely outstanding service!

Wayne took all the stress and confusion out of what would have been a very complicated and time-consuming task. If you're thinking of trying to reclaim VAT on a new build yourself—don’t. Let Wayne handle it. He made the whole process incredibly straightforward, explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, and was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Honestly, it was the best money I spent during the whole build.

I'm so grateful for his help. Thank you, Wayne!​​​​​​​

"They were always responsive, supportive, and ready to help whenever we needed it."

I cannot recommend this company highly enough. Throughout our two-year building process, they saved us both time and money, while helping us navigate situations with other companies that could have cost us significantly in the long run. They guided us through VAT issues, even providing templates to explain to companies how and why refunds should be processed. They were always responsive, supportive, and ready to help whenever we needed it. A huge thank you to Wayne and Lorraine for all your help and guidance throughout this journey

"Wayne covered his costs many times over:"​

It would have been tempting to do the VAT reclaim for our self-build ourselves, as in theory it should be straightforward and I'm used to accounts. Thank goodness we didn't and that we were given contact details for Claim It Back Refunds. Wayne covered his costs many times over: it wasn't just the time we saved, and the undoubted frustration we would have had going backwards and forwards with HMRC, but he recovered £000's more than we would have done. And all done with great communication and simple processes. Highly recommend.
