can anyone please advise if i can claim any of my mobile phone bill against expenses for a rental property self assessment tax return. I have a sim only plan costing £16.60 a month. Thanks

Hi Andrew,
Yes, however, you can only claim that proportion of the mobile phone cost that relates to the rental property.
Private use cannot be claimed for.
You would need to be able to show how you have split the bill between private and business use.
If you cannot find a way to show the business use, then you cannot claim this expense.

Thank you.
