Looks fake to me.
Logo looks off center,it's The CWU not CWU,the text for the signature is dodgy and they usually have the registered address ect malarkey at the bottom of the letter.

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.

Podmeister, if that's Vanessa Lockwood, then all I can say is that's one scary looking mama!
Jeez, I ain't gonna argue, she can have the poxy £12.37 or whatever!

On a more serious note: I see this letter is dated 21st April. If there have been copies of this flying around for the last two months, how come it's only come to light now? I don't recall anyone mentioning this letter before now.

Oh hang on i am missing an hours overtime so maybe only a few quid down :crazy:

I still cannot see this being real as why would some continue to get an allowance ? It has to be fake, weve lost it this week unless anyone can come on here and say they are still getting paid.

Look you blinking idiots! I have better things to do than make up letters to post on a forum for whingy old postman. This is real and if you have nothing constructive to contribute then don't bother posting.
