Absolutely fundamental. Obviously, getting a good employment lawyer is useful. Still, not everyone can afford it, whereas a trade union will usually be able to provide access to legal advice and organise representation as part of its role. However, some unions will not assist in cases that originated prior to a member joining.

Apologies if this isn't the right place (it's more of a vague question rather than a desperate demand for info!), but do we have a section here (I looked but couldn't find it, but then, it's all a bit different to back in the day-nice site redesign!) notiong respected financial advisors, or put it another way, highlighting bad ones? Although ther latter might verge on the libellous, so perhaps not! Anyway, hope everyone's enjoying the bank holiday!

This does almost exactly what it says on the tin. Put simply, on the UK rail network, if you have a travelcard but wish to travel beyond your permitted zones, you can buy a boundary zone extension to ensure the continuing validity of your ticket. For example, if you have a zones 1-6 London travelcard but want to travel to, say, Colchester, then you can buy a ticket from where your ticket expires. This is not the same as buying a point-to-point ticket from the last station in zone 6 to Colchester, which would be more expensive (if admittedly not by much. But if you did that, in our example, you would be paying for a ticket between Harold Wood and Colchester, not the boundary. I.e., you would pay twice for the section between Romford and the edge of zone 6. But there is now a court case over the fact that many people were not informed of this and unwittingly paid more than they should, in many cases, several times. The operators currently involved are those running the South Western, Southeastern, Thameslink, Southern, Great Northern and Gatwick Express services. The website is at The Boundary Fares Claims. @honeybee13 can this be stickied for a while to ensure exposure? Cheers.

This is not a book of condolence. Overly sensitive, much? -

Merely that you demonstrated little knowledge of courts and even less of revenue protection.

I have to Refuse sign new contract
Grotesque replied to wiosna30's topic in Employment and minimum wage problems
What is it you want them to do exactly? Or more to the point, what is it you want to be able to make them do? -
Absolutely It's probably something to do with presenting it personally- perhaps thus implying permission. Whoop whoop this is tha sound of the bank
