I can tell you it isn't automatic.

I applied two years ago in May and got it - but people are applying now and being told they can go part time but NO buy down.

Apparently it is down to the hours in your office.

I've split the topic from the Ill Health one as it may get lost.
I know there are a few guys on here that know about all this.

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.
