Will our legacy pay cut be backdated to April

dingo wrote:Their offer in their letter is they want too remove all legacy payments by April 2018 and will pay the equivalent of 12 months compensation.

Incidentally they have also proposed everyone to go onto monthly pay from January 2018 with reducing loans in place to help with the transition from weekly to monthly !

Having Just read the letter It seems to me that all legacy payments will cease in April 2018.. Pay deal starts from April 2017 therefore you have had notice of the change and your 12 month compensation... No lump sum that everyone is expecting.

Is this your understanding too?

No one has had any notice or confirmation of anything, all the letter represents is a confidential opening bid in a negotiation process. It isn't the end game by a long way.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share
