Sorry, I still don't agree....

I pay to use my van - even before the new scheme I paid (in tax) to use my van.

We don't hand in fuel reciepts......

I don't FULLY FUNDED transport. Yes I don't actually have to buy the thing, but I pay towards it, and I pay a lot more than I did.....

I also lose my tax free earnings aswell, which means I pay MORE tax than you do, so I foot my own bills, not you. You just pay for border jumpers and baby machines......

Yes you can - it's outlined in the handbook given to us by the goverment outlining the new rules. And it says that using a company provided vehicle to get to and from a place of work, beit static or not, is classed as business mileage and isn't subject to the new scheme.

I know this, and I do it EVERY day. Just as all the other people in my branch do - some have opted in and some have opted out of the scheme, but all are entitled to drive their vans home and night without having to pay private use tax......
