Wasn't aware that we were supposed to be paid for them or was it just a local agreement?

That's why we haven't been paid then, ours all had postage on.

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.

Probably down to local agreement crap?! I thought RM was one big company, so why not one BIG agreement? Its seems the most sensible thing to do, but hey its RM we are talking about! lol

We were paid for polling cards the week after delivery. We got paid for the unaddressed leaflets last week.

In this case there is a National Agreement that we should be paid for Poll Cards, the amount per poll card though is up to local arrangements made from before the agreement came into force.

If you have not had it then kick up a stink.
