  1. The thing is the doctor said she was fit to fly and issued a certificate to that effect. I know pilots are clever but are they doctors now as well!
  2. I think there us a Thomas Cook rep on this site, I will check that is the case and will see if it can be arranged for them to respond to your post
  3. Hi It's all down to the repayment security officer (RSO) as Sidewinder says, the repayment goes through a series of checks to make sure that there is no internal fraud. It can take upwards if 10 days for all this to happen before the payable order is sent out by second class post! There's no reason why you can't ring and progress check though!
  4. What an awful experience for you all! I found this on the NHS direct website; Travelling on a plane* If you or your child have chickenpox, you may not be allowed to fly until six days after the last spot has appeared. You and your child should be safe to fly once you're past the infectious stage and all of the blisters have crusted over. But it's best to check the policy of your airline first. Inform the airline as soon as chickenpox is diagnosed. It is also important to let your travel insurer know if you or your child have chickenpox. You need to make sure that you'll be covered if you have to delay or cancel your holiday, or if you need to extend your stay until your child is well enough to fly home. If I remember rightly from my days as a nurse, you are highly infectious just before the rash/blisters appear up until the spots scab. I'm no legal expert and I'm sure some of the more legally minded site team members will look in and give you their advice regarding the legal position but in the meantime, I would suggest looking through the terms and conditions to see if you can find anything relating to your situation
  5. Take your point Brig; just seems a bit unfair though doesn't it particularly as the employee was led to believe that certain shift patterns would apply. Seems as if employers are using these austere times to do what they like!
  6. Just a thought; would the employer not be in breach of the contract if the stipulated hours bore no relation to the shifts the employee actually did? Does it say anything in the contract/personnel manual/ staff handbook about changes to the shift pattern?
  7. I'm sure Elche will confirm or deny this, but to me it seems preety clear cut; "When on annual holiday you will be paid at your basic rate of pay plus your fixed rate shift premiums, if applicable" I would say the on call counts as a fixed rate shift premium. I would certainly be inclined to hoist the flag up the flagpole and see who salutes it! by that, I mean write to your employer requesting the payment of it and see what they comeback with!
  8. Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the active chemical in cannabis and is one of the oldest hallucinogenic drugs known. THC can cause problems in young people as their brains are not fully formed and it seems to affect them more badly than it does older people. The THC compound is also retained in the reproductive organs which I understand can cause problems too.
  9. Generally speaking it is usually between 3 to 12 months. HMRC will obviously add forward interest and would probably expect your dad to do income and expenditure details to substantiate the time to pay arrangement
  10. I think they call you a count because... You like to count things
  11. Atos sponsoring the paralymics!!! That's like putting an alcoholic in charge of an off licence.
  12. Found this; The complex ruling is as follows : Your "pay day" falls on the same weekday every time it is due and that weekday is dependent on the digits in your NI number - this is so that everyone does not get paid on the same day of the week and that the selection of that day is arbitrary. This is to avoid the entire senior citizen population without a bank account all queuing at the post office on the same day. Your pension starts, not on your retirement day (as one would expect) but on the first payday after that. You are then paid for the first time, in arrears, on the following payday. This means that if you are unlucky with the allocation of your payday then you can go for 6 days after your retirement date with no pension earned at all. You then have to wait a further month (if you are paid by BACS) for receipt of your first payment.
  13. When are these people who are so obviously making malicious and vexatious allegations going to be arrested for wasting police time!
  14. I'm really not sure on the rules for JSA, hopefully one of the experts will look in on this and confirm that for you or if not I can flag up the post for their attention
  15. Hi Sell his home indeed!!!! Tell your dad to write to HMRC and state the following; It is the responsibility of the employer to deduct tax and NI from the payments they make to employees. He therefore had a reasonable belief that his tax affairs were in order. Whilst he can appreciate that the tax will need to be repaid, to pay the full amount would put him in financial hardship. He therefore requests a time to pay arrangement (HMRC will expect an income and expenditure report to be completed in order to substantiate the time to pay arrangement)
  16. They will initially look at 2011/12 and as you have been living together as a couple they will want to look at the earlier period
  17. Yes if the payslips etc are on line, HMRC will accept the printouts. HMRC will, when considering if a couple live together, look at things like bank and building society accounts (to check if finances are separate) rent book, mortgage statements, council tax bill and utility bills (gas/electric/phone)
  18. Johninyork The instructions to which you refer are in respect of inspection of records. The instruction regarding execution of a distress warrant are here; DMBM660650 - Summary proceedings: Executing a distress warrant If the court agree to issue a distress warrant, they will direct the warrant to the named, certificated bailiff or, exceptionally, to the police. The warrant empowers the bailiff to collect the amount shown on the order for payment together with his fees for executing the warrant. The bailiff can enforce the warrant by levying and removing goods, or may agree an instalment arrangement with the debtor. The poster should call HMRC again and ask to speak to a SENIOR OFFICER (SO) or GRADE 7 in DMB (debt management and banking)
  19. Found it! PAYE92060 - Reconcile individual: posting P14 to individual record: revision of employer’s returns Employers are responsible for the operation of PAYE and must deduct the correct amounts of PAYE tax due. This means that you should always seek to recover any PAYE tax from the employer in the first instance. It is recognised however that the first time an under-deduction is brought to your attention may be by contact from an employee themselves. This may be by receipt of an informal PAYE calculation or a PAYE tax coding notice. In all cases of under-deducted tax you should follow SPD 60 and the guidance at PAYE92066. Refer to this in your letter, you may still end up paying the tax but you may as well go down fighting. HMRC will argue that you've had a gross and not a net payment. You could counter argue with the fact that as it was normal practice for your employer to deduct tax from all the other payments you received from them, you had no reason to believe that this payment would be any different
  20. So it's the employers fault! HMRC may prefer it if you pay it because it's easier for them of course, but the point is Your employer made the error so I would push that with HMRC. There is some legislation within the PAYE directions which cover this point, I will try and find it and you can include it in your appeal letter to HMRC
