Confirming shifts with Angard

Post by blu-tac man »

I am an Angard ‘Flexible Resourcing Employee’ currently working at the Jubilee Mail Centre in Hounslow.

I received a text from reedglobal at 12:32hrs today (Tuesday 24 Nov) offering an 0700-1400 shift tomorrow morning (Weds 25 Nov). It requested I call Sam on 01604 885694 to confirm.

Between 1300 and 1530 I have tried 75 times to speak to Sam to confirm, but every time the number given has been engaged.

I also tried the Angard ‘Contact Us’ number of 0333 240 8502, but was told by a machine that my call could not be dealt with.

I want to work the shift tomorrow morning, but am not prepared to waste any more time on unanswered calls. The reedglobal text number does not accept replies, so I emailed angard.employee@reedglobal.com asking them to contact me by phone, text or email to confirm my booking for tomorrow - what a ridiculous way to run a business!

Is there a contact at Angard you can email? The lady that deals with our shifts is quite happy to accept emails if we can't get through, and responds promptly confirming the shift.
