Sean Clark+FollowUber Dodges UK ‘Taxi Tax’—Here’s HowUber just pulled a fast one on the UK’s new ‘taxi tax’! Instead of footing a huge VAT bill, Uber rewrote its contracts so drivers outside London are now the ‘suppliers’—meaning most won’t have to charge the 20% sales tax since they don’t hit the VAT threshold. Translation: rides outside London stay cheaper, but Londoners are stuck with higher fares. Wild how one contract tweak can save millions! #Transportation #Uber #TaxiTax00Share

Will Uber bounce back, or is this a warning for all those sneaky subscriptions? #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #Uber00Share
