Taxing Issues

A while back I got a ‘short form’ self-assessment. This shouldn’t be rocket-science, as I’m completely PAYE (Pay As You Earn) at the moment, so it’ll just be a matter of filling in the final figures from my P60 for Tax Year 2006/07, and job done.
Only, um, I haven’t received a P60. That’s odd. I’d best check it up.
So an email goes off to Parasol, the umbrella company that’s currently my ’employer’, asking what’s happened to the P60.
“We’ve sent it out, back in April” comes the reply.
“I haven’t received it. What address did you put on it?”
“[xyz], Bracknell.” they say.
“I haven’t lived there since December, and have updated my address details with you on both moves since then. So why did it go to an address that’s six months out of date?”
“…” Nothing. No response.
They have managed to send me a PDF copy of the P60, so I can do all the tax-return stuff, but all the same, I’d still like to know why they sent the P60 to the wrong address…
