HMRC will change its bankers later in 2009 from the Bank of England to RBS and Citibank. If you pay your tax bills electronically you should be aware of the new account numbers and sort codes which will be announced in due course.
If you pay by Direct Debit or BillPay the changes will be made automatically. If you use a payslip to pay manually, you will need to ensure you have an up to date payslip whenever you payment is due.

We just paid our VAT electronically for the first time and were dismayed to find out that an electronic payment from Nat West(RBS) takes 3-4 days since Citibank don’tparticipate in the instant BACS scheme. I’m not happy that the goverment is using a foreign bank any way but to use one where our money sloshed arounf the sytem for 4 days is outrageous. I was told by the VAT helpline that is was Alistair Darlings decision
