Perhaps because the German government requires them to Ron.

They are probably in another EU country - Germany (19%), France (18.6%) etc.

If you are VAT registered then you can probably claim it back.

If you were VAT registered in germany, then you could claim it back.

If you are VAT registered in another EEA state, then once you have
exchange VAT numbers with the supplier, then they shouldn't invoice the VAT.

Perhaps they feel that it is appropriate to comply with the law? Why do
you think that is a bad idea?

Rubbish. It is a perfectly useable service.

It looks like you have gone off your trolley again.

If you dislike them so much, how come you are using them? Why not switch
to Vonage, and find out what being ripped off is really like?

Wonder if the fool would have complained last year when the VAT was
still 16%?

Ah, but he *isn't* using them..! He gave them up about 2 years ago after
the system went off for a couple of days due to a major failure (it *was*
in their early days of UK operation) and hasn't stopped railing about them
since.

Don't get him started on Vonage..!

IIRC, they can still invoice the VAT if they want to, and you can claim
it back if you can be bothered.
