Poll Cards
Do delivery staff still get a payment for these?
This latest lot are going through the CSS machines so will be mixed in with the sequenced mail and won't be able to be accurately counted.

Re: Poll Cards
We had to count ours as we get paid extra for them. Not sure how much it is per item tho.
Just say NO ....to the new agreement.

Re: Poll Cards
Should have been out today but there was some kind of a hitch i heard.
Yep we get 6.6p per item thanks to this website
My walk does not get them as they are delivered privately at 25p an item apparently.

Re: Poll Cards
Where does 6.6p for Polling cards come from ??
We only get 4p for ours. Is it different for different area due to size or anything or are we getting shafted ?
Or is it local agreements?

Re: Poll Cards
All this technology and we have to pull out 600+ cards from sorted mail and count them by hand. Pathetic.
I nearly said I'd forfeit the payment just so I didn't have to do this.
Also, with park and loop, your partner is delivering half of them, yet you get the payment. Is this right?

Re: Poll Cards
shows how stupid these payments are
Who gets the 6.6p on P/L ??
Is it the postie who throws it off into the frame ??
Or Is it the Postie that delivers it??

Re: Poll Cards
Sounds like an effort to bully people into completing to me. Except it doesn't happen in this company. Ever.tolkien wrote:pig of a day, hammered with mail and the election cards came through as well , managers said we would not get paid for them if we cut off and then kept us in untill the ips was all up, left at 12 back on time with a bloody big cut off at 14.35, bollocks to the buggers its my weekend and it starts now.
Sometimes, I wish I wasn't a Rep.
