Technically yes - but for 'flying below the radar' some people say don't do it.
I'm claiming as much as I can - rent/bills/broadband etc. My accountant thinks it's fine."Is someone you don't like allowed to say something you don't like? If that is the case then we have free speech."- Elon Musk -

I claim mileage only...so I'm missing out here.
My broadband is coming now from sky. I pay as single direct debit for this which includes TV, multiroom, SKY+ etc etc....can I claim this as a broadband service? It'd be cool if I could, I'd probably upgrade and get the top package if so
You say rent....? eh?Comment

Our view is certainly that lunch cannot be provided.
If you arer staying away from home overnight then you can certainly claim for breakfast and an evening meal.

I've had the IR question Lunch claims - so def not worth it IMO, especially for a few quid a day.Comment

I have always been told that you cannot claim lunch although some do. Even on evening meals while staying away, strictly, one can only claim anything above what you would have spent anyway, although there is an internal IR guidance booklet that says that if you have to spend more than normal the whole amount is allowable.bloggoth
