Hopefully someone can give me a clear answer on this.

If I make contributions to my Sipp and pension provider claims back the 20% relief, as a Scottish taxpayer(basis rate), can I claim back the additional 1%?

I've spoken to 2 different Hmrc staff and got 2 different answers!

Tax on your private pension

Claim tax relief in Scotland
You can claim additional tax relief on your Self Assessment tax return for money you put into a private pension of:

1% up to the amount of any income you have paid 21% tax on
21% up to the amount of any income you have paid 41% tax on
26% up to the amount of any income you have paid 46% tax on
You can call or write to HMRC to claim if you do not fill in a Self Assessment tax return.

P2P is risky, expect losses. It may take several years to exit a platform.
