  1. Hello all Update: I submitted a written appeal against my redundancy, HR replied in writing giving an explanation why I was being made redundant (Loss of contracts / Company restructure, etc.,) their reply did not include any issues I raised with my appeal letter. Is that it now? I assumed I was entitled to a face to face appeal to elaborate on the reasons why I appealed (no idea if I was legally entitled to a face to face appeal) Any advice please?
  2. Have I confused you? not difficult :grin: lol My position is "at risk" my my employer has created a new position which involves covering the hours and job I do at present, for example, I work 12 hour nights shifts 6pm - 6am, my employer has created a new position which involves someone working 9 -5 (office based during the day) then "on call" from home between 5pm - 9am thus covering the hours & job I already do. There "IS" a requirement for my position, but due to loss of a major contract, the volume of work has subsided considerably, hence, why they've decided to make me redundant, I'm confused whether they are legally correct is what they're doing, as I thought it was the position that's redundant, based on the example above, my position is not redundant, albeit the workload has reduced. Hope I've explained my situation better ;-)
  3. Hi BRB Oh, I thought I had as in: Anyway, no worries No, it's a "new" position which anyone internally could apply for, the "new" position will incur someone covering the out of hours I worked as well as being office based 9 - 5 (hope I've explained it better)
  4. I'm not understanding something, maybe because I'm sressed The new position will invlove being "on call" 24 hours, ie 9 - 5 office based, then being on call 5pm - 9am, I work 5pm - 9am at present, so they're asking me to increase my hours?
  5. Hi HB Thank you for the confirmation, I'll have to wait and see if any "experts" on here have an opinion
  6. Hi I work out of hours covering household emergency calls, i.e. (burst pipes / break ins / burglar alarms etc,. etc,) Sadly, due to a loss of a major contract my employer is making me redundant, however, under the company's "Restructure programme" a new position has arisen which involves working 9-5 office based, + “on call” from home to cover a small % of out of hours calls, can they do that? My understanding is it's the position that's made redundant, if they require someone to cover the hours I worked then my position is not redundant, my employer states they cannot justify having me “full time” due to a rapid drop in call volume. Any advice please?
  7. Thanks to you both, may I ask, is there anyway to stop these alleged debts being passed around, for example from Global to RW, etc., etc., or do I just have to go through the same paper exercise each and every time a new DCA contacts me.
  8. :D Simple On the other hand, I created a 3 page letter going into great detail about aboy OFT guidelines (some great template letters on here) who I'll complain to and they need the courts permission for any alleged debt etc., etc.,
  9. I've no idea tbh, this is my thread which I created yesterday when I received the letter http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/debt-collection-industry/252483-robinson-way-18-year.html
  10. About 5 years ago before these type of forums existed, I was contacted by a company called Global, they said it was not SB as a CCJ was awarded, (they supplied the the CCJ reference number) so I called the court, and was informed they had to apply to the court to enforce the debt, I informed Global of what the court said, and heard nothing more, until now. Thank you I'm going to write to RW because from reading, they send people round, I don't want anyone turning up at my door, I've moved on from 1996, and don't wish to that part of my life to be dragged up again.
  11. Yes, the alleged debt is from 1992, a CCJ was awarded around 1995 / 1996, I'm going to write to RW informing them they need the courts permission before I enter into any dialogue with them. From what I've read about RW, they don't go away easily, which is why I'm writing and insisting they go through the court before contacting me again. Thanks for your help.
  12. Understood that bit Can I confirm please? If the CCJ was to be enforced, does it have to be the OC who applies to the court to enforce the debt, or can any old DCA apply to the court to "enforce" the CCJ / debt. Basically, RW have contacted me re an 18 yeard old debt, it's not SB as a CCJ was awarded in 1996, but I'm concerned if RW decide to "enforce" the CCJ by seeking permission from the court.
