Like many others I have sent a payment covering all of the missing years I have due to working abroad - at class 2. I have sent in CF83 first and can see my missing years - but despite sending the money a month ago there is no change in my records. Questions: 1. There was no acknowledgement of the bank transfer - surely this is such a basic requirement? A simple receipt would be proof. 2. Why did I spend 6 hours on a call costing me more than a pound a minute [mobile whilst abroad] to get nowhere - just told 'we are very busy' - well so am I and now I'm hundreds poorer for it and no further ahead. 3. Crucial: How do I just find ouot my payment was received? 4. Nice: When will you get around to reassuring people the money will be correctly allocated to their records? I know you guys are busy - but if we miss a tax payment the Earth falls upon us - surely we can expect something a bit better than this?
