Just wondering for those who get mileage paid to them - do you get the revenue specified amoutns of 59c and 29c per kilometre (for a 2000cc and above)?
I ask this as this is what we get for the Irish Residents - there are 3 of us (plus one in the North but he is covered by a UK contract). Our UK counterparts receive 13p per mile from the company, although the UK government says you can have up to 40p per mile. Obviously the 3 of us end up 'profiting' from this, although I use the excess to pay for tax, service and pay off car loan. This can add to quite substantial amounts, e.g. I cna get around €100 for driving to the airport, which is a fill of diesel, although I only actually use just over 1/8 tank of fuel. We don't mention to our UK counterparts how much we get, just say we get Government guidelines.
I'm not doing anything below board, I fill in my mileage on my expenses form, which is an Excel spreadsheet pre-loaded with rates, but i just find it strange that so much is paid out.
