Hi Riny_van_Eekelen, so the actual requirements are the first 7 days at a cost of £19 per day, followed by 7 days at £22 per day from the 15th day onwards its becomes £30 per day.
So for example if the chargeable period ran from 01/05/23 -31/05/23 it would be charged as follows
01/05/23 - 07/05/23 £19 per day
08/05/23 - 14/05/23 £22 per day
15/05/23 - 31/05/23 £30 per day
so 31 days at a total cost of £510.
Is this possible to calculate by entering the start and finish date and it would count the days in between at the applicable rates?
