FAO Those Turned Away On Supposed Start Date
Can anyone who recieved an email from Angard confirming start date only to be turned away by Royal Mail because their name wasn't on "the list" please tell me what happened to them next ?
On Wednesday 23rd of November I recieved confirmation over the phone, text and email that I was starting tomorrow, 28/11.
I've been a Christmas Casual with Royal Mail for the last 3 years & have quite a few friends at the mail centre who are perminant staff.
I text one of them the day after my confirmation to tell him that I would be starting on the 28th only for him to then tell me today that after speaking to my line manager for the past 3 years that my name was not on the list for starters this week.
I intend to turn up tomorrow just in case, but what do I do if I'm turned away ?
I know I've read of this happening in numerous threads on here, but because of the volume of topics I don't no where to begin to look for the answers should this scenario happen to me tomorrow.
Thanks in advance.

Surely the email should be confirmation enough. Not having received one yet myself, I can't confirm if that is the case.

I got turned away and i'm still in a s**t hole. No one's bothering to answer me or give me a straight reply. I've sent lots of emails to the reedglobal site with no reply. Good luck trying to get a hold of someone who actually knows what they're doing...

don't bother = stay away. I went there to get a job for a while, not to be treated like garbage by heartless gits.MrPie wrote:I got turned away and i'm still in a s**t hole.

Sorry, I think we're all in the dark. I've worked the last 3 Xmas's in Canterbury but Angard has f****d everything up. Just ring the depot if you can, or go down there on the off-chance they might let you in. You might be better off looking for another job. I'm going to keep trying to get some sense out of them for a few more days. Good luck all.

Re: FAO Those Turned Away On Supposed Start Date
It is stupid, they gave everyone, in writing, a provisional offer of work subject to passing the CRB check and then when you turn up for work, you get turned away. I have even signed the work contract they sent me. What gives?
