Hey guys
I left british gas in april 2017, I worked for them as a smart meter engineer for 2 years. When I left I was told to pay back a training bond of 6000, retention bonus of 1000 and overpayment of salary of 500
I have massive issues with the training bond as they never gave me an exact break down with figures to what each part of the training bond cost, I have asked them for an itemised receipt but they will not give me one, the have told me it is for training tools, van, hotels stay, this is a generic form for every engineer at the time.
What I am fighting is that other engineers had a 21 week hotel stay at a holiday inn but I never used this I just drove to the training centre 20 minutes from my home. I also gave back all the tool and never kept them so why am I paying for these.
CsT law is a legal company working on their behalf and after they never listened to me i now have a court allocated, but not a date yet they never turned up to mediation twice,
From the beginning I have stated I will pay their overpayment of salary and retention bonus but not the training bond
Bit worries because someone lost there case, has anyone got some advice
