so in total you are paying 2x transaction fee and 2.9% x2 ? | No, I only pay the transaction fee once.
It's a somewhat complicated setup, but a concise summary is that I have a few primary accounts and around 20 secondary accounts:
Primary A - Connected to Bank A
Primary B - Connected to Bank B
Primary C - Connected to Bank C
Secondary a1, a2, a3, pay into Primary A for "math lessons", Primary A withdraws to bank A
Secondary b2, b2, b3 pay into Primary B for "yoga lessons", Primary B withdraws to bank B
etc.
Each primary withdraws around 1000 GBP/week.
I suppose there are 2 questions here:
* Do the banks report this to HMRC
* Does paypal report to HMRC
Part of the issue is that while the bank accounts are all in my name, most of the paypal accounts are in my friends' names. I need to know if my friends are going to get a letter from HMRC demanding tax payment....
