Hi everyone, sorry if this has been covered before but, do you deduct the meal voucher from your parking expenses then claim it back? i.e lets say for arguments sake you pay £15 for overnight parking with a £5 meal voucher included, I’ve been told by my boss I can only claim £10 because of tax reasons?? Basically I’d still need to eat (obviously) if I wasn’t stopping out, but my argument is that a dinner cooked by our lass wouldn’t cost me £5 or more!! Cheers for any feedback
Hi James
When we do nights out we claim the full cost back (£29 @ strensham last time) we get it back in cash when we put an expense sheet in and £22 into the bank as well.

Cheers Jeff, we get £18 in the bank and (£11 @ Lockerbie (paid £16))
Easy way round your gaffer not paying the food voucher every time he does it extra hour a day should cover it for the week.
Cost him more in the end for being a scrooge lol 
Never been a worry for me as i never eat in MSA’s being a tramper i am usually self sufficient, certainly would never spend a chunk of my wages on over priced luke warm/cold food,

Agreed. If I’ve a high value load, and am required to park “securely” then I’ll claim back the cost, including meal voucher, and eat at maccies/BK. Otherwise, I cook for myself in the cab.
