yes i wouldnt do it anyway, but if it was all above board he wouldnt have said take the hrs in the week, he would have just said thats it no more travelling hours.......... he also said if we got found out he would hold his hand up, lol, yeah right, I will go through my contract aswell and let you know the outcome, thankyou very much

I will dig my contract out and have a look but i have covered other shops and gone to superviser meetings for the last 6 years on numerous occasions and got paid for the hours and mileage/train tickets.... another company took us over 1 and a half yrs ago but we havent had any new contracts, and my manager said he didnt think it was fair that we should lose the travelling hrs so on the quiet take them in the week and record as working, now that is fiddling the system to me, which is a sackable offence,

I work in a shop and have always been paid as hours if i have to go to a meeting in another area, now my manager casually said we dont get paid now, soon i am at a meeting that is gonna be a 15 hour day and he says ill just get 8 hrs for it, do you think he,s pulling a fast one so it doesnt reflect on his hours budget, there is a few of us in this position in the shops that are in my area, and not sure what to do about it if anything, any advice please?

ha ha thanks BB,

Just when i thought it was getting quiet............ received another letter today telling me ive been sent to the enforcement department now, and they are the stage of issuing court proceedings in HM COUNTY COURT.......(they said that last time) and then in the next paragraph they say they have 6 years to do it, what a joke this company is !!!! my charge has gone up to 300 pounds and they also say it is not too late to contact them regarding this matter, WHY FOR GODS SAKE dont they just issue the court papers then,my defence is ready and waiting !

file what and forget what????

well after the last letter from them saying they would be issuing court proceedings, i have received another letter today asking me to pay £252 now and i have ten days to pay, (fat chance) it also says we will continue to enforce the remainder of the debt and will also continue to increase the daily amount

thanks BB Im not gonna fret over it thats for sure, let them take me to court, by the sound of the letter if i hear from them again it should be the issue of court proceedings notice, actually i wish they would as i can arrive with my defence, (and my mother in law),

well sent my cease and desist letter and this is the reply i got this morning.......... i refer to the representation made by you in connection with the issue of the above parking charge. thankyou for yuor letter dated ***** . i note from your letter you are requesting evidence of the offence, but as you have not provided the name and address of the driver at the time of the charge being issued, there is little we can do, but issue county court proceedings and let the court decide. we as a company issue the charge to the vehicle, the DVLA provide us with the registered keeper details at out request. we can issue you with the photographic evidence as enclosed, the onus is on the driver to make sure he/she leaves the vehicle in an appropiate parking space. we take all disabled issues seriously. as you stated in your letter you have no obligation to supply the name and address of the driver, we have no alternative but to issue court proceedings. your comments have been noted and will be held on file untill this matter proceeds to county court, yours sincerely steven smith they kindly enclosed a photo of my car for free too,

JOJO........im in the same position as you regarding u.k.p.a.o, dont pay them a penny more, my so called charge is over 200 pounds now and my last letter from them was the same as yours, and i know Barnsley Boy had the same so ive just sent my third and final letter to them which is the cease and desist one, then ill forget about them.

you can come with me then....

BB....... have you had a letter since the one last july,I should still send my cease and desist letter anyway yes????

loving this, you lot are really funny....

yep i get my letters from steve smith hi steve......
