Silver lining, I was sacked yesterday. I hope you don't mind if I don't answer you for the time being. In time, I am sure that I will be able to answer you. I was very paranoid that what I did on the forums would lead me to a place where I would not have a job. I was proven 100% right. I know my place.

 

Hi

 

sorry you lost your job. However, that was not due to posts on here, if so then PM me and i'll give you details on how to sue them for thousands!

 

Sorry for ranting last time, but it really annoys me when employers think they rule their staff minds - they don't! Chin up.....

There is another thread on this forum which explains what I am going to say and what I am not going to say. Unfortunately, the reason is gross misconduct and that is as far as I am allowed to actually post on the forum.

 

Fair enough. For info to others, see here: http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/word-banks/183460-nattie-yourbank-has-been.html

I am an ex RBS employee, well or natwest, I worked there when the integration was happening. I worked in the Mortgage department.

 

Had some good experiances and some bad

 

The pay wasn't very good I must say, for what I actually did.

Ive just left the Bank with the big blue bird.

 

Anyway, after being pushed for sales, sales, sales but being promoted as a customer service positon I decided to drop the bomb shell at the time of being in the top 10 in the country. Needless to say I actually sold products and services to people who needed them but the amount of false selling that goes on is unbelieveable.

 

My lending target for last year was £1m by the end of Jan £3m, end of Feb £7.5m. How the hell was people going to hit this in a middle of a recession? Again lots of made up applications (guessing ).

 

It got to the stage where I thought enough was enough, ive now moved onto to something new but I am planning on trying to prove my loan with them in unenforceable and planning on taking legal advice on breech of my data confidentality.

 

I wont bore you with anything else but there is so much more I could tell.

 

Thanks for letting me get this of my chest.

So is this thread offering to get my old job back?

[Plague]

Used to work for Skipton Building Society, wouldn't trust them with anything - so called independent advisors only flogging Aviva investment products because thats where the highest commission was gained, frequently unqualified staff not only giving out mortgage advice but actually conducting mortgage appointments and signing clients up for wholly inappropriate products and when this was pointed out (as prior to this i worked as a compliance officer for an IFA) - I was reprimanded and told to keep my mouth shut.

 

Got an account with this company? - move it

Got a mortgage with them? - switch it

Got investments with them? - transfer them - to stop them claiming ongoing commission (yeah those friendly girls behind the counter get bonuses on what the advisors sell) and they get more bonus from certain products - shameful - not the behaviour of a 'mutual'
