Yep mine is Vivup too, good to know they apply those charges. On top of charging the max they can to the owner, they also charge the retailer the max admin charge of 12%, apparently all other schemes charge 4-6% max.
I went to get the C2W from Fully Charged and the guy's face dropped when I said my Trust uses Vivup. FC pass the extra 6% onto the customer unfortunately, but he said that any employer can do an "instant green commute initiative" process so I'm going to try and persuade someone in Payroll to do that instead.

I'm pretty sure they're not allowed to do that

Hah I hope your HR/Payroll is more efficient than mine. I haven’t been paid for the locums I did 4 months ago.

How did you get on with vivup? I'm looking at using it but there's a disposal fee added on after the agreement, which is 10% of initial cost plus VAT at 20% of that fee. I'm trying to ring around different shops to see what fee they charge to use the scheme. But if the reduction is increased by 12% from disposal fees and there's another 6-12% added on from the shops I'm not sure if it's worth it rather than getting a good deal from an online shop, all the 0% finance stuff makes it easier to spread the cost in a similar fashion as well.

My trust uses Vivup - is yours the same? They gave me the option of paying 25% after 12 months and owning the bike, or 10% and extending the hire period for 3 years.
