Cannot add service reference: the content type text/html [..] does not match the content type of the binding
Question
I have a Web API and i want to call an online web service that uses SOAP.
I tried to add it as "service reference" however when I call it am getting the below summarized error
The content type text/html of the response message does not match the content type of the binding (text/xml; charset=utf-8). If using a custom encoder, be sure that the IsContentTypeSupported method is implemented properly. The first 13 bytes of the response were:
<HTML></HTML>
The binding in my web.config is basicHttpBinding and I checked if the binding configuration matched the WSDL configuration and it does.
This is the URL am trying to consume: http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/checkVatService.wsdl
Is it possible to consume SOAP from Web API ?

I though I had some experience with the service VIES. I can confirm that you can consume SOAP service with C# .NET. I posted the solution on my blog and find on GitHub repository VIESCheckVatService the whole project.
I hope you can help.
