New Payment system

Post by Lateagainpostie »

I came across a flaw today in the way we are being paid.

I rang my bank for some help with my online banking, it turns out as far as they are concerned I no longer work for Royal Mail, the weekly payment is made by whoever RM has employed to pay us.
So when asked which company paid me and how much, I got it wrong, and the person the other end refused to help me any more because I had failed a security question.

Not sure if this will affect anyone applying for loans or mortgage, but I'm fuming that RM are not even mentioned, and there is no mention on your payslip, plus we were not told this would be happening.

With regards to what it says on your bank statements and it not saying RM...

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.
