Excess Travel Payments
Have just found out I am surplus after our revision and looks like I will have to move to another office. Does anyone know what the current rates are for excess travel? Have read on an old post its 25p per mile but was wondering if its gone up since.

Re: Excess Travel Payments
How did your guys sort a revision that fecked one of you off?

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Re: Excess Travel Payments
Not just one about 15 of us. So thats the question I need to ask our area rep. Some people have got more hours and they have just took on about 5 new temps but about 15 of us are surplus????????POSTMAN wrote:How did your guys sort a revision that fecked one of you off?

Re: Excess Travel Payments
Well when I had to go to another office a few weeks ago this is what I was paid... are you asking about something different?

Re: Excess Travel Payments
Yes this will be a permanent move to another office due to now being surplus because of our revision. It comes under the MTSF agreement which I have read but there is no mention of how much the current rate is. I think what you were paid is the higher rate. I think I will get the lower rate x 2 for 3 years from what I have read.PhilthyPhil wrote:Well when I had to go to another office a few weeks ago this is what I was paid... are you asking about something different?

Re: Excess Travel Payments
What happens to excess fare when days/hours of work increases? What effect has it got on the Displacement/Dispersal allowance (£9000 for full-timers)?

Re: Excess Travel Payments
Its 25p a mile for a car. I went to a RM/CWU ETE meeting last week about it.


So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Re: Excess Travel Payments
This is getting complicated. How do they calculate if your Excess fare payment is over the minimum £1250? Do they use the 25p rate per mile or the higher rate which I think is 45p? Basically I am going to be travelling an extra 65-70 miles a week in the car and in that case wouldn't qualify for a 5 year claim if they use 25p but would if they use the higher rate.Stormproof wrote:Its 25p a mile for a car.

How far do you travel to your current office?
How far is it to your new office from your old office?
