            Kind of yes and no. You can get cash rewards depending on the amount of tax recovered for dobbing people in. 72000 have done it in the last 12 months.

                I had a contractor colleague who had been claiming for the same daily journey for 4 years. He knew about the 24 month rule but was claiming 'because I want to'.
