It's part of the deal. We lose our Early shift allowance but gain that amazing 20 quid a week extra, which also includes our D2D pay.
So, in short, we lose our early shift allowance and we also lose some of our D2D pay as they're both consolidated into a payment less than what they would be combined.
Thanks a lot CWU, bunch of pr**s!

Didn't any of you lot know these details when you voted, or didn't you bother to vote.
It's too late now, we've lost all that money. In short, its a pay cut. Ward and Hayes should be relieved of their jobs right now.

I really don't understand how 50% didn't even vote on this what did they think was going to happen.

Reserved driving rights are unaffected so you keep your 6 quid.

You wont lose your d2d cash until your office signs up and implements the new revision which could be a few months
