I was just looking at my cell phone bill from Fido, and I think they are charging me GST incorrectly!
Invoice Date: December 26, 2007
Fido Service $80.05 (for services Dec 27/07 to Jan 26/08)
GST $5.11
PST $5.60
Total $90.76
At first, I thought--> This is now 2008, shouldn't GST be only 5%?
So I called Fido, and I was told
"Since your invoice is dated on Dec 26, 2007, you are still charged the old rate. Your next bill will be charged 5% GST"
I said,
"Well my billing cycle is from Dec 26/07 to Jan 26/08, there's only 5 days of service in 2007! And since the rest of the days are in 2008, shouldn't it be pro-rated?"
Fido representative
"Sorry, it doesn't work that way"
Any accountants here? Is this really true?
Anywaz..then I realized Fido is currently charging me 6.3835% of GST....
6% GST should be $4.803
I know it's only a few cents.. but I am just very puzzled how they can screw up taxes..@@..
So you might want to double check your invoices for this month!
