We are going to do that. To the drivers spokesman

Kh

We have never read as much crap either, £20665 is for VAT, feck you can claim that back.
If you where to open the station to everyone and not just a few bum chums, all a driver or owner would have to pay is about £10 per week.
You and the other 36 have been shafting the driver for long enough and now your the one's on the receiving end, so if all the 80 driver pull you will be right in it, what comes around comes around as the saying goes.
National Express has been informed of you shenanigans so they will be in contact

The thing I dont get is why the drivers are paying you and the other 36 £55 per week for a radio, you dont need one for a station, you pick up and go and come back

What nonsense. You have no concept of how Vat works.

And you have been watching to many episodes of THOMAS THE TANK, LEARNING HOW TO BE THE FAT CONTROLER

The way I understand it is thus, National Express invoice you for an amount plus V.A.T, which you pay and then when you complete your VAT return you claim that amount back, when you in turn shaft, sorry invoice the drivers your total is plus V.A.T which in turn is paid to the Government. so the bottom line is, as none of the drivers are V.A.T registered the original amount is claimed back by you, paid by the drivers who cannot claim it back so the V.A.T total on the originall invoice ends up in your coffers and once again you have the last laugh. if I am wrong perhaps you will offer a different explanation.

Could not have put it better myself, now I wonder if the VAT man would be interested in seeing there books ALL OF THEM

This will be last reply. If we claim back the vat invoiced by the supplier and then pay the vat recharged on our invoices how can we finish with money in our coffers. The nett result is that Vat has no gain for anyone.
It is irrelevant that the drivers are not vat registered.
Your understanding of vat seem to be if you buy a computer from a large retailer they pocket the vat because you can not claim the vat back. all vat is paid to the government. I can assure you no one gains from Vat. I hope this clarifies the situation. I can assure you we will have an open policy on this matter.

The last reply because you have been found out maybe

would that also include the other limited company that is run by Stn Taxis

Not so, and you know it, you are gaining a percentage now do the honourable thing and divide the price of the permits less the vat,

do one keith I stated the following on another thread

Its quite interesting this....

I mean, based on a figure that we don't even know is true, we are getting people surmising over the entire operation of a company, even though they don't even come from the place.

People dont even know what conditions are attached to the station contract, yet they presume the company involved should give out permits for cost price?

FFS I havent even heard the 'plus VAT' words mentioned in anything I've yet seen.

Irrespective of the above a limit on numbers that operate on the station makes those with permits more immune than others from that nasty deregulation thingy that occurred last year and will continue to occur till nobody wants a taxi license in York anymore.

Station Taxis will pay the Govt the VAT collected from the drivers, less the VAT paid to National Express.

Only the drivers can reclaim the VAT they've paid to Station Taxis, but they would then have to account for VAT on their fares

there is only one driver who works night and day who works the railway rank who is VAT registered

Instead of blasting one another online, I've got a good idea..... erh..doh..why don't you try TALKING to one another to get this sorted out once and for all.
