I wonder if HMRC are looking at taxing these cash-back deals, why
wouldn't they after screwing the return of trail commision?


In the case where the company pays, but the employee gets the cash back,
I assume that they are already taxable as income.

Where the person who pays gets the cash back, I would hope that the
giver of the cash back receives a refund of the VAT. However, if that
is not the case, there would be yet another source of revenue for the
government.
