I am hoping that someone will be able to help me regarding VAT and parcel force. I moved here from San Francisco in 2007 bringing all my personal belongings with me including my laptop which were exempt from any VAT and custom charges.Last month my laptop crashed and I found out that the extended warranty I purchased in California was not valid in the UK. A few weeks after it crashed my mom died so I went home to California taking my laptop with me where I sent it to be repaired and had it sent to my sister-in-law who then sent it back to me.Yesterday I got a letter from parcelforce saying I had to pay a £63.81 V.A.T and £13.50 clearnce fees. Why do I have to pay these fees on my laptop which was purchased in California 2 freaking years ago that was exempt from VAT's and custom fees when I moved here? I have tried to call the customs number they listed on the letter but have had no joy as the line is constantly busy and I have tried all day. Can someone help me?!!!!!Canela
