why would he offer you £20 he will get paid for them if there done or not.....Sherpas Rule wrote:I've been a floater for ages and never even get the chance to do 20%, at best the usual guy will offer me £20 to do them all in one day, which I offer a 'f**ck off' too!Spedley wrote:Using inflation figures, we should be getting 3p per item by now.
Some of the industrial estate deliveries in our office have less than ten D2D deliveries. I'd quite happily take the cash if I were those people.
Also, as a floater for many years I often missed out on D2D payments. I theory it's 20% per day but it isn't always practical.
I'm very tempted to take what they offer us because I think it is very possible they'll just change the name of the product and make us do them for free anyway.

Re: How much to lose D2D payments
Speaking as a driver who only does 80 odd drops on foot (about £5 / week D2D), I stand to do quite well out of a one off payment...
Luckily for the majority, wouldn't vote for it on principal, even though I would benefit.

but doing away with the payments altogether, with possibly a small (Miniscule) pay rise to compensate.

Re: How much to lose D2D payments
Yes, but you will have to prep and deliver maybe as many as 600 calls x 6 d2ds for the same £1.20 as someone with 200 calls. Is that fair? Will they get 40p pay rise per hour because they are only doing a third as many as you? THOUGHT NOT!

Re: How much to lose D2D payments
cant base it on hourly rise as part time staff would get less than full time, if anything it would have to be a weekly payment and even then some duties have a lot more doors than others so even that would not be fair

Re: How much to lose D2D payments
There is no fairer way to pay for D2D than the system we have right now.
You get paid for what you deliver,it's as simple as that.
So that begs the question Why change it.
RM position is clear,more D2D equals more profit and the less they have to pay us the better.
But what about the union? D2D into workload is a good thing but it should have been so from the start.
That and lifting the cap does not mean you have to change the payment method.
But announcing a D2D supplement paid 52 weeks a year makes it sound as if they have won something when in fact we will all LOSE a lot.

Re: How much to lose D2D payments
It depends what else we get with a payment. A pay rise. Automated d2ds. Built into workload with delivery methods so the weight is off our shoulders. The deal doesn't sound so bad then.
btw.... 800 drops to terraced houses = 200 drops to really long driveways of the rich buggers
If both take 3.5 hours, why should one dude get 4 times the pay of the other? Assuming the d2ds come ready prepped of course, otherwise this isn't true.

Re: How much to lose D2D payments
Im FOR d2ds in the current format. If you deliver 600 calls you get paid 600 calls, not get shafted to deliver 6 x 600 for no extra pay or the same pay for someone delivering only 200. Hope that makes my moan clearer!stokes11eg wrote:streetwalker wrote:Yes, but you will have to prep and deliver maybe as many as 600 calls x 6 d2ds for the same £1.20 as someone with 200 calls.
