### 1/5 — Shame

*2012-11-27, version 2.3*

This was a really useful app for 2 years.   Now I have the same problem as other people - the VAT amount is stuck on £21.33, and nothing will change it.   I have deleted it and redownloaded, but no difference.   Sadly, I have concluded that the app is busted, and now I have moved on.

### 1/5 — Recent Update

*2012-10-16, version 2.3*

This WAS a fantastic ap, I have rated it at 5 stars before. I used it all the time, but since the recent update the VAT, whatever rate, on any amount, has stuck at £21.33. 

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling and rebooting to no avail. 

Please fix this, I'm lost without it.
