no 25% :D that's how I get busy all night here, while the rest are all sat there with there fingers in neutral :D
I can choose day or night rate, night rate is 25% more on the whole fare so the further you go the more you pay :shock:

Don't think it's legal to run your meter at the wrong rate for the time of day.
You should run at the night rate and knock off the discount.

I have checked with licensing they have said the tariff sheet is the max and I am free to discount as long as the meter is on its ok
It simplifies things being able to run the day rate 24/7
Yes my meter is time and calender controlled but on Halda meters the F buttons work in your favor if I press the hired button after 10pm it will automatically start with the 25%

I am suprised that you can put your mobile number on your car. We all had to take ours off. Land line numbers only. :?

Yes, I know its a bit of a mess but when you remove the seats on these there is a shed load of bits down the centre console side, as well as around £60 in change that you cannot get at as it disappears down there and cannot be got at without removing the seat

For a person who dislikes LTI it is good you like to use their hire light logo on your business cards :roll:
