You can still buy Office as a one-off I believe, but Microsoft365 [as Office365 is now called] isn't exactly a crippling expense. There is a small charge annually for my bridging software also but they amount to around £100 annually. Yes, I know, why should we pay to submit our tax records? It is just the way it is.Quick update on this. I received a letter from HMRC last week, telling me that I need to register for MTD for my next monthly VAT return, or they will apply penalties. By my reckoning, I've saved 15 monthly subscriptions since the date of this thread, and hopefully allowed them to sort out any gremlins in their system.
Being forced down the monthly subscription/cloud based route now though I guess.
I've not had any gremlins with the system whatsoever. It works like a dream and my wife now loves it. The only issue I had to start with was with getting her to open a template and then immediately saving that as that month's VAT as the title and the normal Excel suffix, rather than saving the working file as another template. Also with 365, switch the auto-save button on, to save all months in the same place, or you will waste time trying to find files later on.
