You’re expected to finish your route whether it takes two hours or 20 hours
You pay a weekly rate for a van, regardless of whether Van new or four years old
You’re required to deliver two businesses and households/farms down roads or should I say tracks that sre not fit for purpose, in doing so if you damage the van, they charge you any amount they see Fit and take weekly payments from your invoices at a rate of their choosing and don’t inform you until you receive your invoice. They charge drivers for damage then don’t get the vans fixed. Your told you can’t repair any damage it must go through them.
If you’re struggling on your route, they occasionally send another driver but deduct for every parcel that Driver takes.
They don’t give a full contract
They won’t produce/provide paperwork
You must become a limited company
You have to pay a weekly fee to their accountancy firm, that does nothing for you

If for some reason you can’t get and when you say you are coming in, they ask you to return the vans which still charge you
