Doesn't really work like that & I can't see that working. The sale date is the tax date for HMRC & VAT records. The only difference would be if the refund fell in the next VAT quarter as most VAT is done quarterly. Unless Argos have a special arrangement & do it monthly.At the moment they make an invoice they are due to HMRC VAT amount. Waiting for 30 days for a return period to pass is their excuse for keeping the 20% of each transaction for minimum of 30 days upto maximum of 60 days. With monthly sales of aproximately 341 million pounds 20% is 68 million cash pounds on their accounts to play with.
That is why you can’t get the invoice now.
