Hi Robert - read the PM before I saw your last post, so no need to answer about the job description.

You're doing fine.... think I've got everything now.... just need to give you the right bullets to fire at them lol;)

Ready Aim FIRE!

Sorry me again! what was gf job title?

nothing, didn't get one. She name herself network manageress?

..this just gets better (or worse, depending on how you look at it - lol)

OK, so what was she supposed to be doing?

(mind you, without a job description or training - how would the poor girl know????)

day to day running of the site, site moderator... upload merchants...... doesn't know exactly lol it does seem ridiculous now you make it so clear!

Exactly !!!

Looking forward to your letter!!! lol Can't wait! Well gtg finish watching 24 thanks Ell-enn and goodnight!

Hi there Robert - I've sent you draft letter by PM as I can't get the link to work on this post, but will try again when it's all approved by you.

You will need to fill in the company name where I have put (company), also you need to print off a copy of the email and take a copy of the warning letter. On the top right hand corner of each of the copies write the Appendix Number i.e. on the email write Appendix 1 and on the letter Appendix 2.

Please read it carefully and check I have got all the facts right.

Unfortunately there seems to be a postal strike at the moment, but as she is still employed until the end of October you will be OK for time.

Regards

Ell-enn

Perfect! Def post that as a template it is exactly right. We're not sure how to proceed as Ian called up and said he would try and help her get a job elsewhere... could annoy him this and he might not help with the other job? I guess we could wait till her sorts it out (this monday) then send it off?

Thanks sooo much for that! I doubt they will be doing that again

I think he may be offering to try and get her another job because he knows they've messed up with the procedure and hopes she won't take it any further. It's up to you of course, but I personally wouldn't let them get away with it. Anyway, you've got the letter if you want to use it.

Good Luck.

Ell-enn

I want to use it but not sure what we could get from using it? I doubt she wants to work for them now they have shat on her lol

I thought the same as you, he is trying to make up for what he did!

What would the letter achieve? Would it be only to get a me a hearing? or would they offer something else do you think?

In my opinion, you should always appeal against a decision you believe to be unfair. There is always the chance they will change their mind and although you may not really want to work for them anymore it's always easier to get another job while you've still got one.

Your employer has not followed correct procedure nor have they acted reasonably with you - and, in my opinion, you owe it to yourself to take them to task for it.

However, I can understand your reluctance - but what do you have to lose? and why should they get away with treating you like that. They probably thought you would just quietly leave and say nothing.

At the end of the day it's your decision, you have to work out whether you would regret not doing anything about it once you've left and need to find a job.

Kind Regards - Ell-enn

Thanks for your personal and professional advice, I don't like the way they handled it and won't put up with it (with your help). But I will see if he does arrange this other job for me by Monday if not I think I'll send the letter and hopefully get my job back while I well while my gf gets a new job. Which you are right will be easier when she is employed to when she is unemployed. I guess they wouldn't mess around giving her crap references especially if they feel I know my rights!

OK, keep us informed

I'll send the letter off today. They've also been really chasing her up, Example

In a title for H&M it would post, due to the & sign.

H & amp: amp: amp: M

This happened 14:19 she noticed it and changed it by 14:19. Within this 1 minute. He had e-mailed her asking her what was wrong with the title and to fix it.

Crazy!

OK, let us know what the response is.......... nothing ventured, nothing gained eh?

Best Regards

Ell-enn

I've been reading abit about this type of thing and my gf doesn't want to go back to being treated so badly. Is there compensation we could get instead?

To be honest, I doubt it. You are not in a position to threaten to take them to an ET. The best you could hope for is for them to reconsider the dismissal in light of the fact they have behaved unreasonably, which is what I thought you wanted to achieve.

In my opinion, there are no grounds for monetary compensation, but there is no harm in appealing - they may change their minds. After all, it's easier to get another job while you are still working. It may also make them realise that she can stand up for herself and expects to be treated fairly, but as I said before - the decision is entirely hers, I can't tell you what to do, I can only advise based on experience.

Kind Regards

Ell-enn

OK, well again thanks for your time. I'll keep you posted.

Not that she particularly cares about the money, just that she doesn't particularly feel welcomed anymore but also didn't want them to get away with it!
