    Using personal air miles to reduce cost of business travel

    Hi Cyndy I don't know the answer to that question, but I would think surely it must do, since Virgin are basically providing the same service as Trainline or Trainpal as an intermediary, and the actual value of the ticket would be the "ticket price" which is shown as the full amount on the...

    Using personal air miles to reduce cost of business travel

    Thanks Nicola! That's what I was thinking. The receipt would show the original price of the ticket, the value of the points redeemed, and then the remainder paid on the card, so I think that would be clear enough.

    Using personal air miles to reduce cost of business travel

    Thank you for your kind concern for my wellbeing :D. I love a city break! But we're talking a lot of Virgin points here, and the actual price of a return train ticket from Bath to London tomorrow would be £116, so using points to reduce that to £16 makes sense to me.

    Using personal air miles to reduce cost of business travel

    In my instance, I have Virgin points, which can now be used to offset the cost of train tickets. Great for me, as I have to take business trips to London on occasion.

Quickbooks are ending the subscription version of the desktop product, but it sounds like you aren't using that. I can't...

    Problem with sick pay

    If the contract you are using really says Entitlement to renumeration then you might want to check the rest of it, because it doesn't scream "professional" to me.

    Is there a need for Proof-reading Services?

    I am like you, because bad spelling and grammar can most definitely put me off a product or business. Unlike you, I don't care about split infinitives. I think there's a difference between spelling and grammar, and arbitrary rules created by prescriptivists that are now largely ignored. The end...

    Desperately seeking advice on email interception fraud

    It's far more likely that it is their email that has been compromised. It's still easy to fake the "from" address of an email. 1. Their email systems are compromised so that a fraudster is able to log into their email system and read all of their emails. 2. The fraudster sees your emails in...
