My Name is Michael Caine
« on: May 11, 2020, 11:56:47 am »
You only had to blow the doors off ...You remember the film . You only had to take the roof sign off .Simple instruction .Just had a phone call from a driver parked up outside his gaff got a letter this morning off welfare saying his coin is stopped as he is working because his van was observed with the roof sign intact .

  Just for reference if your not working remove your roofie and remove yourself from the NTA app .You have no defense if you dont comply simple as .

Dunno Erm if you have no PSV insurance your not a taxi driver anymore.Welfare would need to catch you in the act to cut off your money.They're much smarter than they look.

Not True 42 he got the letter this morning and I saw it .He is appealing .He was told by his broker not to cancel his insurance as he would then only have 3rd party and if anything happened to his van he would not be covered .He didnt disconect from the app as advised by the Taxithingey so I suppose technically he is still a viable taxi ?

That doesn't mean he was working though.Maybe he may have actually have been working and his details were noted at a checkpoint.Welfare aren't stupid.

Before the virus, once the roof sign was in place you were deemed to be plying for hire.
Nothing has changed.
Good post Ermy.

About the insurance you can get third party fire and theft from any insurance company..I reckon he's another spoofer.Not uncommon in this job.

If you dont disconnect as advised by the NTA then you are confirming by omission that you are still working ?

He was told by broker he would only have 3rd party its a new van use to drive a rental its his first policy in his own name so was afraid to mess with it and broker im sure didnt want to be returning commission .

If he's new he's paying huge money for insurance.Even more reason to cancel the PSV insurance.

Sorry John... You are right.. I hold me hands up... Just off th phone to a friend of mine who has a taxi rented out. The lad who's driving the taxi has been caught working and claiming but trying to deny it. My mate got a letter from revenue asking him is this lad renting your taxi at the moment. He had to reply yes.
