Dave Liquorice coughed up some electrons that declared:

From the 1st Oct 2008 the beggers have withdrawn the postage paid envelope
for sending back the return. I guess they want people to file on line and
jump through the hoops to get an government online ID, grrr...

I agree that getting an online password AND activating it can be painful.
But you only need to do it once.

But the online VAT return (and the self assessment) is quite painless, worth
doing IMO. Did VAT returns a couple of years back that way. Did SA this
year and got a refund in 4 days flat

Yes, I've done SA that way for a few years now. It's remarkably
good for something implemented by/for the government.
