Brilliant as we are we still can't deliver them the same day.

Re: Anyone Got Their Ballot Papers?
No the ballot starts on the day the papers are sent out. Or more correctly they send out the ballot papers on the first day of the vote otherwise people could receive them early and therefore run the risk of invalidating the ballot.steven100 wrote:So will our deadline be extended by 1 day.

Re: Anyone Got Their Ballot Papers?
Of course the ballot timetable will not be extended. If you're someone who's savvy enough to be on this site, you can't have not read the agreement or formed an opinion on which way to vote even before the ballot paper was sent out. I don't need 2 minutes to fill my paper out. 2 weeks is more than ample time to post it back.steven100 wrote:So will our deadline be extended by 1 day. Thats if it arrives tomorrow.
Some members could be given 2 years to get their ballot back and yet they STILL wouldn't even bother to vote

No! Really! Now that is a turnup for the books - and here's me thinking how honourable and trustworthy they have been in the dealings with their employees BUT - lets draw a line under the last 6 years and put all our faith in a new understanding and trustclashcityrocker wrote:As Mr Higson has taken the time to write to you, I trust you will make the effort to reply.fishtank wrote:
