No company is allowed to give a derogatory reference anymore. All they can do is say that you worked there from "date" to "date" and not amplify any further.
I would resign to save face but it is tough out there and you might have to look away from banking as others have said.

It is correct but the bank do not have to accept your resignation. I resigned and they chose to continue with the disciplinary. As you are still working for them they can proceed and sack you even if you resigned.

I find it really hard to believe out of all the bank staff on this site. That give users advise on banking is shocking.

Then your the one getting done for GM. I wonder if theres more too it or youve clearly been grassed up my another user who has managed to identify who you are and has said you are representing the company on this site.

I have a disciplinary on Thursday and they said they will send me the supporting documents shortly WHICH THEY HAVE NOT DONE!!!!!!!

I am meant to receive the evidence at least 5 working days before hearing.

If I call them to cancel and request the meeting be moved until I have enough time to prepare a defence, will this look bad on my part?

I thought if they were playing everything by the book, they would have sent the evidence in time but to me, i feel they knew they had to send it at least 5 days before and they are taking the mick!

What should I do? Im wondering if they have not sent evidence because they are most probably still investigating or they dont have enough just yet or they are seeing if they can get away with sending me the evidence a day or two before the hearing

Make sure you have that evidence - if you're entitled to 5 days, then make sure you have that 5 days. You will need time to study this carefully and 5 days isnt much as it is.

Anyway - what I am thinking is that they are deliberately trying to ensure you dont have that 5 days for careful consideration. To which - I would personally reply (politely) and state that "in view of there being insufficient time to allow for the 5 days period I have for perusal according to.........." that I was asking them to postpone the hearing until such later date as I would have had the evidence for that 5 days. At which point - you've made it plain that you know what they are up to (ie trying to deny you that 5 days worth of time) and you've turned it back against them by having "played for a bit more time" (hmmm....it does feel sometimes like working for some employers is like "virtual judo" put like that....ie using their own techniques back against them.....)
