He will soon see there is no point in pushing this claim and he will just fuck off. Otherwise he will take your reticence as a sign of weakness and browbeat you into submission. An alternative way of dealing with this is to tell them (lie) you rent the house from a management company and if they would like to present a vat registered bill, complete with vat number and contact details you will forward it on. You won't hear anything from them.
