Their guidelines state you have to keep in regular contact with them,every day is bollox.I 100% personally wouldn't phone in every day,bollox to that.
Next time you speak asked to be referred to ATOS,even if you feel you will be back at work at the end of the 2 week sick period,that covers your arse.

No text talk please,not on here anyway,you're welcome to text him of course...

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.
