If you left the job back in March are you entitled to any back pay?

Yes you should be, as you were employed by the of end of January.

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.

It will depend if you have been a good leaver or what they consider as a bad leaver. Bad leavers such as dismissals do not get the back pay.

Since the back pay relates to a period of employment already worked under contract I doubt that position will hold up at an employment tribunal, it's just a guess because tribunals can be a lottery but they don't tend to like arbitrary positions like "good leavers" and "bad leavers".

If you're contractually entitled to pay up until the point you leave or are dismissed it legally has to be at the same rate as it would have been had you not been dismissed otherwise it's considered an ex post facto or retroactive punishment.
