    Cost of courier for 25l water delivery..

    I asked where he ordered it from - not who delivered it ;)

    Cost of courier for 25l water delivery..

    Ah fantastic - I'll check them out. May I ask where you ordered the water from? I might put an order in myself to explore their process start to finish..

    Cost of courier for 25l water delivery..

    I just checked and sadly they have a 5 litre limit per container. A real shame as the cost you suggest they will charge would be ideal - about what I hoped based on a reasonable volume.

    Cost of courier for 25l water delivery..

    In what way am I asking too much? I'm just trying to establish what a competitive price is for 25kg deliveries these days, and which couriers do accept water. Plainly it's possible, Amazon will handle the fulfilment including delivery for £8.84 providing the container copes with their drop...

    Cost of courier for 25l water delivery..

    Best priced courier to ship 25 litre containers of water (de-ionised water)? I've tried speaking to a few, some will ship liquids in this volume, some won't - but all are very expensive and won't give indicative volume discounts. Has anyone had any luck shipping liquid containers of this...

    GDPR - are we affected?

    Thanks. Surely a window cleaner does collect data though, whether I call or email they have *something*. And if they are to be truly effective, they will probably want my address too! :D I don't think my window cleaner would have much to say if I asked him for his privacy policy though... He...

    GDPR - are we affected?

    The reason we can't copy the useful info, is that we have no idea what could become useful in the future. Right now I'm working on a project in Germany, and in 2007 I worked in the same venue in Germany. It's very out of date now of course, but the old haulage quotes we got then were enough to...

    GDPR - are we affected?

    That's a good plan. I'm left feeling that really general enquiry/business emails should have been exempt from such considerations though (beyond basic good practices). Obviously all businesses have emails discussing water rates, tax strategy, customer enquiries etc. I can see if I was using data...

    GDPR - are we affected?

    All makes sense (although in our case we do sometimes refer to ten year old emails - for example, if we wanted to recall how we approached a technical problem back then). But I can see that if the information is stored securely and not used for any purpose than a record of work done/discussions...

    GDPR - are we affected?

    My worry is that right now we just have emails sent/received, as any business has. If I create a register or start organising it to schedule for deletion in the future... surely I begin to do the sort of thing that would require more policy at my end? I can see that we should make some effort...

    GDPR - are we affected?

    So to go back to my window cleaner analogy... If they have a basic website with a list of services and an email address and telephone number, what would they need to do if anything? I'm using the analogy just to simplify things as much as possible. And does having someone email address simply...

    GDPR - are we affected?

    Going through the regs (trying to remain awake..), really struggling to see how any of it applies to the site I run, but have also seen other comparable sites running pop-ups about privacy... The site is just a very basic corporate presentation for our services. There is no 'sign-up' option or...

    Setting up Ltd to purchase and manage B2L properties

    Read again - that was my point. You took the value out at a high point. If you had bought it 20 years ago and not done so, it would indeed have smashed index linked inflation norms. Unless it is in an area that has collapsed financially etc. Also, thinking back - in 2007 there was much talk...

    Setting up Ltd to purchase and manage B2L properties

    The new laws mean that an Ltd can recoup interest paid against rental income, whereas an individual cannot. But interest as an expense aside, it's always been the case that tax on the income has to be paid by ltd or individual. I think the government is essentially looking to deal with problems...

    Setting up Ltd to purchase and manage B2L properties

    You kinda just answered your own question and also reinforced by view. As you say, new tax laws and you've been put off. By making it harder, more people are of course deterred. But there is little in this world that is a better example of supply and demand than property. So... It's all the more...
