I would refuse to do a round trip of 11 miles for £2.80 and so would nearly all of my colleagues. If it's the other side of the district I'll pass the job onto a firm over there. If it's outside the district I'll charge from where I'm based so the passenger would then pay for six miles out of the 11.

But Brum's Licensing Department ask Brum Trading Standards to check the accuracy of HC taximeters, which they do annually & raise a council cross departmental invoice, believed to be about £30K, which Licensing Department transfer into the coffers of Brum Trading Standards Department.

I would ask for a breakdown of that cost, and a 'best value' assessment.
