Cheers all. Something to think about. I'm not sure it's something we'd do, but I was curious about the general ramifications.
Pretty sure (iirc) from an evidential pov an invoice is proof of sale - ie beneficial for the service provider. If I have a new drive layed + texts with quotes/prices + a bank account with a £2k withdrawal then I don't think not having an invoice changes my rights (such that they are in practice).
Also, if you're a member of a professional body that expects you to be aware of and report potential money laundering offences (accountant, lawyer, etc) you may get booted for aiding tax evasion.
