Rider Income in London

My friend ask me to find out the payout for each job rider could get
from
a good courier company in the following situations.

One job in central london within one postcode?
One job in central london within two postcodes?
One job in central London to outside London?
One job from London to outside London upto 50 miles?

One company is offering only £3.00 per job in central London in the
same postcode.

Any comment would be highly appericiated.

 

When I despatched for Mercury, 25 years ago, their minimum rate (one
run, same postcode to same postcode) paid the rider £2.25. So £3.00, a
quarter of a century later, is appalling.

 

In uk.rec.motorcycles, The Older Gentleman belched forth and ejected the
following:

Connections was the worst paid I worked for; £2.80 minimum and that was
about 5 years ago.

XL was the best at 4 quid but that's still pretty bad.

The only advice I can really give anyone is don't belive the stories of
how much you'll earn, especially from the companies themselves, they're
all interested in getting you working and will give you fairy tales of
two-ups to Manchester, then a job to Liverpool to come back to Machester
then another job to bring you back to London. While this is possible,
you'll only experience this once in a blue moon and even less in a
lifetime.

Forget it, do something else.

This has been done to death already.

Use Google.
