the information provided does not reflect what happened whilst i worked for M, and also contradicts the original reference provided by them in 2016. Alot off the temp work available locally is hours i cannot do and anything which is not is too far/expensive to travel to on public transport due to the awkward location i live.

the reference provided, is false, and also differs greatly from the one provided in 2016 by the same person, Company "F" is not willing to re-consider, company "B" has already hired my replacement (i trained them).

Hello, first time on this forum and was wondering if anyone could advise me, So i have been working for a company for 2 years lets call them "B" i have had no issues here but due to the time it takes for my travel i looked elsewhere for employment closer to home, i applied to a company local to myself i will refer to them as "F". I was invited for an interview and also had 3 phone interviews, after a few weeks i was offered the job via Conditional offer, i accepted this offer, provided the information required "references" and handed my notice in at my current job with "B". A few days later i was invited in to "F" get all my details sorted out and sign a contract which i did, this was a few days after providing the information requested. the next day (4 days before my start date and 1 day before i left "B", i received a phone call stating that due to a negative reference from another company (lets call them "M") they are withdrawing the offer of employment, this is 2 days after i signed a contract with this company to start work the next week. Now the reference provided from "M" differs greatly from the reference "M" Provided to me when i started work at "B", i have copies of both references and also the signed contracts. The original reference provided by "m" before i started with "B" in 2016 was very positive and would be considered a good reference, the reference provided by "M" in 2018 is a very negative reference and does not reflect in anyway myself or the reference the same person from the same company provided in 2016. I feel that both "M" for the negative reference and "F" for withdrawing the offer after signing a contract are in breach of some Law here, i am now without a job for the first time in over 8 years, i have bills to pay and less than 1 months paycheck to get me by until i find a new job. If anyone has some knowledge on this subject any help would be appreciated, i can answer any questions if need be. Thanks.
