Matt hayes, serving in the raf

“I got over £3000 back and went on holiday!“
I saw the SWIFT advert on Facebook and thought I would give it a go. I work in the aviation engineering industry and use my own car to travel to base camp. I was happy when I spoke to SWIFT Refunds who informed me I was due a tax rebate of over £3000! This was the easiest money I ever got back! I used the money to book myself a holiday to Mexico.

“I had no idea you could go back four years for a bigger refund“ I found out about Swift Refunds from the commercial director of the rugby club. I got in touch with Sharon and Denise who did all the work for me. The communication was great and a few months later I got over £3000 on a four-year tax refund.
