Gov'ment Advisory Fuel rate;paying more

Hi all,
I pay for fuel on the company car with a fuel card. At the end of each month when I do my expenses I split out and pay for my personal miles. Last 3 companies I have worked for use the Government Advisory Fuel Rates, £0.13 per mile since 01st Sept / from £0.14 before September (on diesel 1400cc - 2000cc). With this company I have to pay them £0.20 per mile for all personal miles. This is now £0.07 per mile more than the GAFR. The car itself costs less than £0.11 per mile on diesel, in effect I'm paying more than £0.09 per mile back to the company, on top of the cars fuel cost - over a year on 15,000 personal miles the company is charging me £1350!!!! Is there some way I can claim this back. Fuel is getting less expensive and I'm still paying £0.20per mile :mad:
