Several months ago I purchased the Microsoft complete extended warranty and was charged for VAT when I shouldn't have been. Even though I tried to get it sorted I gave up after 2 hopeless phone calls to the Xbox site and phone support.
Out of the blue this morning I received this email and I expect others in the same boat did too.
