Hi Another Newbie

Post by richtea »

Hi

Just to introduce myself joined RM as Posty 6mths ago going ok but have already seen a lot of potential changes where i work

Anyhow quick question if i may please
What are the current pay rates for Postman/Woman upon starting and after the 6 and 12 mths service ?


Slightly baffled as i seem to have just had a 6mth uplift and maybe a small rise on top as well (is this the 1.4% April rise ?)
Not quite sure

Thanks
Rich

Welcome mate,will move this to blue shirts.

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.

This is based on mine 'ive been with RM for 11 months
Current pay rate: 213.48 --25 hours
Before 'payrise@1.4%': 210.53 --25 hours
