Received the Christmas Card today with 50 First Class Stamps. Is there any word if the £100 pro-rata Christmas Bonus is to be paid out this year?

Last years stamp were the best......................Santa having a crap down the chimney

If I remember correctly the cards are sent out over a few weeks (must be because they don't want overload the poor posties

).

And the £100 Christmas bonus they can shove up their a**e, it's not worth all the crap we've had to put up with all year

I would take the money all the same, after all they got enough out of me, so I am having some of it back.

The bonuses are always pro-rata, so a lot of people can expect £2.50 or £15 or £50 for a years worth of bullying it's not worth it

Not gonna pass it up, but the £100 bonus isnt really worth as much as it used to be. It hasnt gone up since ive been wasting my life away at Royal Mail.

Now that fuel prices have gone up, the £100 probably wont even cover the cost of lighting the xmas tree.

Do what I did last year. Keep the stamps but returned the card to sender! Redirect to Adam Crozier at Royal Mail. If he gets 20,000 returned he will realise how much we have to carry nowadays !
