Taxpayers struggle with filing online

The Daily Telegraph reports users of the website have met with error messages and a note saying the system had been unable to verify that their filing had been made.

The paper quotes an HMRC spokesman saying the problem affected only a small number of people.

Last year the system crashed just before the 31 January deadline for returns.
