yeah comet are rubbish at people skills,i have worked twice 4 them haha my wages were meant 2 b paid on tuesday but didnt get them until yesyerday.payroll are good though,the only department that cares.the way comet do things is stupid,if a store meets its target then head office raise the sales target but slash the wage budget 2 maximise profits,just a stupid way of doing things coz then morale drops rapidly. Mikey,they would have had 2 stick u on the system 4 u 2 get paid so my advice would b 2 ring payroll coz all ur hours will b on the system.or write 2 comet head office and mark it 4 payroll.payroll will help u out.

Hiya,with comet there is a cut off point 4 overtime.what contract hours were u on?? was it a 5 hour contract? coz they spread overtime over 2 months,u may get the rest of it in february. Did u get a payslip as well? coz u should have done! i am still waiting 4 my p45 and i left in december! U can ring payroll,the number is 0844 8470844,press option 1 4 human resources then option 2 4 other pay issues and talk to the person at payroll,they r really helpful i find!

yes thank god! it was finally in my account last wednesday,bout 2 weeks after payday! the manager and assistant manager basically talked out of their arses and if they had allowed me 2 talk 2 head office instead of saying they would sort it and didnt sort it i would have got it sooner. Advice 2 every1,always talk 2 head office directly when dealing with comet,never go through a store!

Being an ex comet employee myself (yes i am ashamed lol) what u r experiencing doesnt surprise me! Normally with ex display models they r bubble wrapped 4 starters and u have the right 2 bring it back.With headphones i am unclear about procedure because at the store i worked at we never had headphones out of the box and on display.I am surprised they didnt keep the box because alot of items like radios and small items they have the boxes out the back in a corner with point of sale stuff (little insider knowledge 4 u). The whole hygiene excuse is a bit of bull**** really,comet will accept ipod returns and u have headphones on that so why cant the headphones be any different??? Comets head office r a bunch of tossers as well as i am in the process of persuading them 2 pay me my xmas temp wage which was due on 22nd december and they still havent sorted it. I worked 4 comet twice now and dont agree with alot of what they do. Dunno if this is any help but thought i would pitch in.

Hey1 i worked 4 comet but was forced out 4 years ago due to severe mental illness and had no support.well went back 2 working at comet this xmas but have quit a week b4 my contract ran out as its only a temp job.they have screwed my wages up.i gave wrong bank details and gave them right bank details but the manager said they were wrong even tho the guy in the bank wrote it down 4 me!the assistant manager said 2 me she doesnt think i would get paid anyway coz i have a savings account but at my interview on the 19th november the manager said it was fine...then struggled 2 get my details on the system so left it 4 head office but ****ed it up anyway by giving wrong info.so now its xmas day and i dont have my wages and was never going 2 get them because if it turns out they cant pay into my savings account then no matter waht details i gave the cash wouldnt get in my bank. Am thinking of ringing head office instead of going through the store coz the mananger is a total idiot. I have now been ****ed over twice by comet.....
