Few times I have booked my ticket from here possibly cheapest and they match the price also. Staff very friendly and give enough attention to your requirements. They don't accept credit card( they charge extra amount for credit card), this is only disappointing thing otherwise definitely I'll use this option always.

Self Assessment - entering your tax on line

Inland Revenue's Internet service for self assessment. In common with most Government sites it looks as though it was designed by an undertaker. However, once we had gone through the long winded verification process, we did manage to pay our personal tax in minutes without the site crashing which was great.

Sadly the site is still a work in progress if you have a partnership or a trust. Incredibly these organisational forms still require third party software to enter their accounts. Remarkably HMRC seem quite happy with this situation!

Tax Offices

Saint Albans Hill Post Office

181-183 Marlowes, Hemel Hempstead HP1 1BD, UK – 0345 611 2970

Now shut down ! There are Post Offices in WH Smiths along the Marlowes and at the local area community shopping centres

This is in first floor inside WH Smith. Staff is very active and helpful. They will guide you what is the best for you and explain all available options. I always use this centre whenever I need to post anything.

Dacorum Borough Council

The Forum, Marlowes, Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire HP1 1DN, UK – 01442 228000

Good clean library with private workspace, wish it had a silent study area as the study area is right next to the creator space which can be noisy. Better than harpenden and luton so far.

Adeyfield Post Office

44 The Queen's Square, Hemel Hempstead HP2 4EP, UK – 0345 722 3344

The new Branch Manager was very helpful. I went to 6 different post offices to exchange foreign currency and Derm (branch manager) was the only person that was able to do this with ease!
