Depends what your on....we run on £2 per mile after the first mile... day rate....+ 33% from 11pm..most of us are happy at that.


In that case you have a really cheap first & second mile, & is your flag drop distance a lot more than a mile?

Your mileage rates are higher than Brum.

No....the increase was passed;

£2.30 for first 7/10th and thenafter 20p per 1/10th. Day Rate.

So day rate 1 mile Costs £2.90...thenafter £2.00 per mile.

Why ask for a rise? (sounds like an apology)


Why not dictate you're worth? :shock:

We didnt ask.

Procedure is to meet the LA once per year to discuss fees. The headline is wrong.

Oh deary me, do you not think it's too late to think for yourself?

Why not just accept whatever it is they think you are worth?

Sorry CC, they do that anyway . . ..
