Passing out a taxi with a dent SGS

[Shallowhal]

Ye supposed to ring everyday to make sure Revenue haven't rescinded compliance?Revenue should be contacting people who were tax compliant to explain why they are not anymore.....if i pay my taxes and my accountant sends me an online copy of the TCC....i'm assuming i'm tax compliant......until i'm not.

That is kinda what I was thinking !

You can check it yourself on the ROS website with the correct passwords.That's probably how your accountant is doing it anyway.I'm my own accountant...sounds great until the audit comes.

Booked and paid for me SGS last week 29th Feb and I was Tax Complient.

Anyways go to Greenhills cenmtre on Tuesday morning and the guy failed me because the TCC was not cleared, he also said he would have failed me anyway because of the fact my meter sits in the pocket in the middle of the dashboard and the door is closable, he told me that this cannot be allowed as meter has to be visable at all times, told me to either PLUG the receiver Hole or remove the door.

Anyways went home and got in touch with me accountant and he was able to get me cleared in about 1 minute , says the revenue sometimes do this without warning for no reason at all !!!!

So back tonite at 5.50 for confession part 2 (less €30), but please take note

1. Check your TCC on day of inspection
2. Make sure your Meter is not in a compartment that can be concealed

That sounds Mad STC's but thanks fer the heads up. 

Anyway passed and have me 6 month daisies on, Ken I just plugged the received with a Plastic screw, did the job

Got passed out today for another year also in Greenhills. Stream of people going in to sit the skills test while I was there, must believe the biz has a future.

It was the same in Ballymun NCT center the last time I was there.I'd love to get a copy of the Freenow sales pitch to newbies.They must be telling the new lads how they have top earners getting 112k a year.Even with 600/700 expenses for renters 1500/2000 seems like a good deal.

They're spending big money on radio adverts to attract new drivers and more recently more passengers.Type driving jobs into Google and a freenow recruitment advert comes up.Same with all the job sites.I was on some other site with nothing to do with driving and a small video started playing in my browser and it was a recruitment advert for Freenow.They're expensive adverts.

Also there are also lads out there telling customers who are potential taxi drivers they're making big bucks.It's only big bucks if you have low overheads.

There should be an app, like the driver check, where we can check our tax status and it’ll send us an email if we aren’t

Revenue always inform you (or your nominated agent) if your tax clearance is withdrawn.

Well i was not informed

[Rat Catcher]

Was your agent? They send a notification directing you or your agent to check correspondence via ROS.

When I rang him he didn't say, literally got me back up in a matter of seconds, the cnut probebly knew all along.

[Rat Catcher]

I'd say so. Revenue aren't noted for acting "in a matter of seconds"... probably thought he'd have it sorted before you noticed... and almost did?
