I received a brown envelope this morning from His Majesty's Revenue & Customs.
On the back was printed an invitation to download their app. How very woke. So I entered the quoted URL: gov.uk/HMRD.app
and got page not found.
I wonder how long that has been like that?
Do a Google site search for screwups like this:
site:gov.uk HMRD.app
*******
You don't even need to do that, as Google works around minor spelling mistakes. It responds:
Including results for gov.uk/HMRC.app Search only for gov.uk/HMRD.app
And, of course, the first result in the list is the right one!
I am pleased that HMRC haven't pulped millions of envelopes unnecessarily. Nevertheless, well spotted, pinnerite. Maybe, you should get a job as a proof reader.
But HMRC keeps telling you to never use a search engine, for obvious reasons
