[Bearded Munch]

On a similar thing in 2004 my vauxhall zafira diesel fill up £50.00 last week £73.00 I expect wednesday it will be more.

It makes a difference when some people don't put their own rates up accordingly

 

Like Andy said...no point worrying about it, no amount of complaints, fuel blockades etc are going to change it. Just make sure you aren't subsidising it in your business and charge accordingly.......the problem then is no longer a problem:thumbup1:

 

 

We lost so many mowing jobs when we tried to charge old biddies an extra quid. They just don't seem to get it!

It took a long time to get to a £1 a litre and there was alot of noise. But it has not taken long to go up by 50% has it and it hurts more because of the economic climate.

[shanks]

It costs £7.50 in central northants:(

 

Thats what I pay for 5lts, at the end of the earth. How come yours is so much??

[TreeNuts]

This is why I don't vote and do as little as I can to support this unfair system. I see the institution of modern day government as little more than a criminal protection racket. Labour, Tory, doesn't matter - they're all merely different faces driving the same destructive and oppressive beast of a machine called 'government'.

 

They can't do anything about raising fuel prices! They could lower the duty for a start, divert funds from other areas, tax the (w)bankers at a decent rate, or sell their 3rd homes. It's all so corrupt.

 

Angry now. Gonna find a kitten to kick.

the fuel was used for 2 jobs today and after the purchase,the jobs were charged at my new rate with no complaints from customers...

 

The problem is the increase you passed onto your customer should have gone into your pocket to pay for the increased living expenses you are suffering instead its gone straight into the government coffers. I dont understand why we send so much money to deprived nations who then become developing nations and put us out of business. We pay for our pain ?

so if the price of fuel goes up 10% how much do you put up your prices.

Fuel for me is about 8% of business costs including labour

So do I put my prices up by 1.25%

Or do I drive slower and reduce my costs back to what they were before
