Angard shame on you

[edbling]

My mate given start date as tues night 29th nov at 10.30pm - 06.30am. Was told at interview if we do not contact you before this date then this is when you start. Turns up on time with 13 other people and was sent home with 4 others because their names were not on the list! apparently same happened to 20 more people on the next day shift. Angard you want to be ashamed of yourselves these are actual people you are messing around! What happened to the good old days where you could just walk in to the managers office and tell them you know someone who wants to work and they would arrange an interview?

I was supposed to start today at 6am to 2pm according to Provisional offer Letter at the York Mail Centre. Have telephoned 01604 629381 five times during November, the last time on Monday (28th Nov `11) when I was told that I had passed all vetting procedures and would receive an email plus Contract in 1 or 2 days - the 2nd day being Wednesday. Nothing appeared so have emailed to the following address `angardxmas.queries@reedglobal.com` twice, once yesterday and early today complaining about the waste of time (asked to go and get a 2nd photo when only one was needed and cost me an extra £5) and money at the Registration session on the 3rd October, not updating `My Applications` and their unwillingness to pull their finger out where vetting and lettting people know what is happening. They can`t even give courteous email replies. I have worked for Royal Mail at Christmas time since 2000 and this is the worse it`s ever been. Wish I could sent my email direct to Royal Mail`s bosses.
