I tried claiming it back. I rang my tax office and got told that I couldn't claim it back the same way as doctors can't claim their training costs back.
The tosser I spoke to then went off on a personal rant about why should other people pay for my training so I can earn more money etc etc. I told him he was a bitter and twisted little man in a dead end job, and if he wanted more money he should train for an accountants job or something.
He did say if I wanted to I could appeal in writing. I joined Balpa since then and was hoping they might be able to help but it doesn't look like it
