Ah the always moving goalposts!!!!!
All i can say is good luck hope u get sorted soon

I am on special leave as my partner and daughter are living 140 miles away and its school holidays and was told there would be no problems getting a transfer this was near on 4 months ago.House is now sold so would have been homeless told I would not get a transfer unlesss I changed from FT to PT which i have done now goal posts keep getting changed.
Only advice i have been given by the cwu is go sick with stress
area is going through the new delivery methods revision so nobody will commit to given me a job even a 25 hr contract!

To be fair, they do state that a transfer Is not guaranteed and not to move until the said transfer appears. I had medical grounds for transferring with spaces at the offices I had put down available with no luck. Nearly 5 years waiting, a 55ish round trip a day and every avenue searched to no avail. I left the job in the end. Transfers, waste of time.

i was told that if u p/t then transfers are no problem. if you f/t then no chance at all.

If Royal Mail HR or local management no help, go the delivery office in suitable area and ask to see DOM there and see if he/she can arrange it or not. It will be easier to do this than rely on middle management

I done that. 7 different offices. It's still down to you're Dom to release you. I got so fed up trying and I mean trying every angle I left. It wasn't if I wanted a certain postcode either,I had 3 different postcode areas down for transfer in 3 different counties( live near them all).

So you've taken buy down at your old office and had nearly £5,000 and you're back working full time hours at the new place?

.....so the x union reps come up trumps , seems like there's one rule for one and one rule for others, mind you i expect nothing less from this corrupt organisation of fiddling cnuts.......

Calm down guys I,m still on a 30 hr contract but they are putting me on a 40hr duty I do not want in reality a 40/39 hr contract as i will have child care issues but my partner is on holiday for two weeks and we have parents coming up but is nice be able to make up some money from the 4 weeks i have been on UNPAID special C leave.
I am well aware that if I apply for a fulltime job I will have to repay the money I have been paid.

There are so many sad people on here
