Hi All,
I live in Central London and have just started a good gig in the Berkshire area which requires me to be on site all the time except when I have to travel around for meetings etc.
I lodge in my Dad's spare room most of the week and would like to pay him rent for this.
However, I am told by my accountants that:
This is apparently because my company is registered to my home in Central London, but I am spending > 80% of my time on the client site, which means I treat the client site as my base.
But with the 3rd Party consultancies on site, they also spend 100% of their time onsite and yet can claim expenses from their companies.
Does this sound right to you guys? Can I claim any expenses at all?

However, I am told by my accountants that:
- I cannot claim any car miles for the travel to the client site (from London or my Dad's place) and
- I cannot claim any rent / accommodation
