RE: Tax treatment of dividends24 May 2024 11:12
Peter, I had the same issue with Barclays. I called them. They advised that they will claim the REIT income tax from HMRC and will credit the capital on my account in 8 weeks. I am skeptical I won't have to make further follow up calls. However, I was told they will claim the 20% back from HMRC for every dividend payment and I won't have to do any thing for it to happen. I am skeptical on this as well. I will give them 12 weeks and if nothing happened I will call them again.
It is a pain in the backside.
