Mobile phone tax allowance

[Agrivator]

Does anyone have a standard figure for the annual cost of a mobile to claim against tax?

What annual gross cost would the Taxman or Accountant accept in lieu of actual receipts? £150? £200? , £300? etc.

 

[SilliamWhale]

All of it. Can't farm without your mobile office.

Why not use actual receipts?

Can you claim anything without receipts...? If on contract you would at least have evidence of the amounts paid showing on your bank statements.. I think you can claim most of your spend as business but unless you can show you also have a second phone for personal use you probably should show willing and add back a "fair" percentage for personal use.

Voda cant touch the likes of 3 for package & cost i still dont think, i could be wrong.

Thankfully living not far from the Longest Road in the UK the A1 has all of these good mobile comms bonus's
Rough count there is 7 mobile masts i can see from here.
Then there is the East Coast Railway Line & A1 & 2 Castles & 500Ft TV Mast not forgetting 28 x Huge Wind Turbines.
All of these structures seem to blend in quite well to be honest & still think we live in a stunning part of the country
