Companies House Cause Confusion

This page has caused some interest. I'd already had one company director email me to thank me for helping him out. Today I had someone asking why he was paying us money. I've re-written this page as a result to make it clearer that it's Companies House taking your dosh. Not The Hug.

Thanks very much for this. You are spot on. I asked myself what the £15 for chewebfiling was and so googled it and found your article. You have saved me at least 20 minutes!

I too did a Google search looking for the origin of the charge on our account. Wonder why Companies House wasn't found??Your (old) blog is the most useful web content I've found today! thank you.

I had exactly the same thoughts as you. Well done for posting your experiences, a very useful public service!

Well done Hug This has saved me a chunk of time as well. I think I will take it up with Companies house and ask them to use a more meaningful reference in future. This must loose a lot of people a lot of time.

Followed the search exactly as mentioned earlier off my Company credit card transaction and found this site through Google. THANK YOU SO MUCH for saving my time. It is very thoughtful of you to take the time to do this and very much appreciated..TYPICAL GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT!!..It's a good job that some of us think a little bit more logically......Cheers, Barbara

Thanks a million!! You saved me so much time!! You are a gem!Merry Christmas

Very useful - legend.

Hi,

Ditto all of the above - saved me loads a time!! thanks xxx

Thank you so much, saved me hours of investigation. greatly appreciated.

Had I been robbed? Thankfully, no. My heartfelt thanks for providing a quick resolution of a dark mystery.

Many thanks for posting this article. It seems to be the only page on the Internet that explains CHWEBFILING-DOM.

Thanks

I had no idea what was it

Many thanks for this. I had no idea what it was.

I did EXACTLY the same thing! Thanks very much for sorting it out for me. That entry's been bugging me for MONTHS!

Thank you Paul

My Morgan Stanly mystery is solved

Great stuff to be the only site which google found

Many thanks for this saved me loads of time with telephone calls & sifting through receipts.

Thanks, saved a lot of time and work!

saved me the trouble of ringing mastercard regards eddie

Thank you for saving my time!

Just when I think all hope of finding out what this is, is lost, a final Google search brings up your comments. Thank you very much indeed for your posting!

as above comments - ta!

Thanks so much!!!! You saved me nagging my husband for the receipts for his business purchases again!

Thank you. Like the others... not a clue what that was. I can't believe this is the only reference to this matter in the whole world wide web!

MANY THANKS JUST THROTTLED DAUGHTER FOR USING MY BANK CARD OOPS!

thanks saved me hours or, what the hell was that for??!!

Thanks for taking the time for posting this. Saved me loads of time and trouble.

Thank you so much for the helpful info, sitting here for hours trying to work it out. You send this to Companies House as a petition to be more descriptive...they would not take this from Companies when they are asking for info. Cheers

Just want to join everyone else in expressing my thanks

THANK A LOT FOR GOING TO THE TROUBLE, VERY HELPFUL.

Thank goodness I googled this and found your site rather than spending hours on the phone to my credit card company!

thanks to this site it saved me time in tracing deb.

Thanks very much for your initiative. It saved me money and time.

Many thanks for your help - perhaps the title is more obvious in scottish!

Thanks a lot for this - saved me a lot of hassle phoning the bank :-)

Thanks so much for saving me time and effort. Cheers Mate.

thanks for that, saved me loads of time finding out what we had paid for!!!

thanx for save my time for solutions of this issue

I'm an accountant and completing a set of accounts and this has been a big help

Excellent info has saved ages going thru the Company Credit Card Statement !!!

Thanks a lot... you save my time as well.. cheers

Thank you for taking the time to explain the meaning of CHWEBFILING.

Thank you - we spent ages trying to work out what it was!!! I googled and found this blog - Fantastic! thanks for your help!

It is UK's companies House

You are a Legend! This was doing my head in.

You have saved me hours of frustration searching for the invoice [that never was]. Thanks so much. You are a star.

Hi, great help for me thanks as well. Why the hell people can't put bloody proper lines on what the thing is is beyond me. Talk about confusion. chwebfiling.Dom OF COURSE ITS COMPANIES HOUSE, we all learned that didn't we its like ABC.

hahah

Cheers anyway

I can't believe it's nearly 2 years after you wrote this artical and it's still the only site that google picks up when you put in CHWEBFILING-DOM you'd have thought Companies House would have put something on their site by now! You've saved me some very valuable Bookkeeping time! Thanks xx

Thanks Very Much

Very Clever idea

Thanks for writing the article - I also did a google search on chwebfiling.

Well done and thank you very much.

Thanks for this! I had exactly the same thing on the credit card. Saved me loads of time hunting it down! x

You are a star ! Saved me (and so many others) a load of time and hassle ! ! !

might only be £15.00 to some people but i am a yorkshireman and it would bug me forever. brilliant to have it sorted in seconds . It also shows again the lack of respect and consideration from the "tax collectors" for the honest taxpayer. It can't be difficult to have it detailed as "companies house"

Well done, thanks for this article and all your comments!!! As you say saved stacks of time.

Thanks for posting this....... most usefull, unlike the govt itself!

Thanks a million!

Out of the darkness comes light ...... you're a star!

Saved me many hours / phone calls - Thanks

you just saved me a load of time too - thanks - still the only site that came up for CHWEBFILING

This is ridiculous isn't it? What I don't still understand that I have had two payments taken out of my account on the same day for £15 and I haven't done a tax return - cn't rejmember what I could have done that has lost me £30!

Another vote of thanks for clearing up this mystery on my card!

And still it performs its excellent purpose - many thanks. Mick.

Well done all we need now is for Companies House to read this rather than us. Thanks for taking the time to write this down and post.

Funnily enough I did write to Companies House customer services only yesterday when I realised, having looked at the referrer logs, that the comments here are only the tip of the iceberg. Around 3,000 people a year are now finding this page via a search for CHWEBFILING-COM!

Having been accused by my husband of using his card again and not keeping a record of what it was for, I went straight to my lap top and typed in CHWEBFLING-DOM in the address bar. I was delighted to find your explanation. Many thanks!

He should have known......... I would have spent more than £15!!

My immediate thought was, whose ripping me off this time! Can't believe they set an example like this of how not to do things. They make life difficult if you put a comma in the wrong place in your Return, and then go onto misrepresent themselves like this. Thanks for clearing it up!

You're a genius!! thanks for shortcutting this for us.

Thanks, first result on google! Why can't they just put 'Companies House' !?!?!?

Thank You, you surely helped me!!

Now I remember,my son filed a Return for his old nanny's freehold management company after supper one evening...thank goodness I found this site or I'd have been going spare wondering who had helped himself to £15 out of my Mastercard account.Many thanks.Pity Companies House hasn't seen fit to amend the crdit card debit reference.

Thank You, This was driving me mad on the company statements. This has been a great help Thank You .

Having recently had a number of fraudulent bills charged to my credit card and it taking considerable effort and time to resolve the matter satisfactorily I thought "Oh No, not again!"

Your site has saved me a lot of time and worry - I can't thank you enough.

Thanks saved me loads of time!

Still the only source of info on this issue. You would think that Companies House would include this in some FAQ that was scanned by google!

Thank you - I went through the same process with my credit card company, then googled CHEWEBFILING-DOM INTERNET to find your article, very helpful

Hi -- many thanks for the time saving answer to our confusion, hopefully Companies House will take these comments on board, well done.

yet another thank you for saving me time and annoyance in finding out what this item on my credit card statement was - you're definitely providing a public service here (unlike companies house!)

Thanks and since 2006 ...still no change from Companies House! Has anybody told them?

It's appearing at the moment as COMP HSE FILE-DOM if I'm not mistaken.

Hurrah, my work here is done then! About time too.

Thank you so much.

Thanks for this page and the recent update. It's number 1 on Google and saved me all the confusion and chasing around I would otherwise have to do! Got to be the best forum posting I've ever come across!

Thanks a lot for publishing ur experience for everyones' use. I was wondering when I see that in the statement. Welldone!

Thank you - very useful!

Many thanks for your time and effort. It has obviously saved a lot of people a lot of time & expense.

The description has changed our visa statement (company cards) reads COMP HSE FILE-DOM so I googled it and up this page came. Still the dopes can't just say Companies House!!

Ta

COMP HSE FILE-DOM I presumed someone had charged me for a DOMain name.

Why not just :

COMPANIES HSE.GOV

Thank you!

SAME PROBLEM. Just googled it and found your article.

MANY MANY thanks

You're an unselfish star, Paul

How grateful I am for this page...it's the first year I've filed online.

COMP HSE FILE-DOM on my statement. Thought it was something to do with Health & Safety Executive with whom I have no connection.

My credit card company may charge £5 admin if a query on a transaction turns out to be valid so you've saved me time, worry and money.

THANKS!

That's odd? - I ordered on their service last week and have just checked my bank account and it clearly displays "COMPANIES HSE WEB" - pretty clear to me! - Perhaps it depends on who you bank with as what what is displayed as obviosuly they must be sending the correct infomation.

Thanks for your effort to post this on the net. Your write up saved me valuable time. Can some body please tell Company House to do something about this confusion?

Thanks!

Coo-o-o-oolio. Thanks!

Cheers, Much Obliged

Don't blame Companies House - Blame your Bank/Card Issuer - They're the culprits by not displaying the correct information!.

What a star!! Thanks mate.

Legend - Thanks!

Even this late on your post has helped. Catching up on old accounts and came across it on my statement. ? What the hell is that? Did suspect something official but not obvious. Is now. Many thanks
