Having spent ages going around in circles with the tax office (why dont local tax offices deal with local people !) they confirmed to myself this morning that if Spread Betting is your sole source of income, it is indeed taxable.
Now someone has already made the point that if you speak to 5 different officers you'll get 5 different answers, but this was very clear advice, and reading between the lines the officer spoken to had clearly recently had reason to investigate said subject.
Have written to my own accountant this morning subsequently for clarification.
Well, as scose says in previous post.....
I would get that advice definitively and in writing. You might then send it to the CEO of your SB company(s) since it is contrary to all that has gone before and to their (SB) claims. Let their lawyers pursue it for you.
