Oh no, really sorry to hear that. Have you checked out what rights he has and his entitlement? Will keep my fingers crossed the informal interview brings some good news. Poor you, having to deal with this over the weekend as well - why do people do this on a Friday?

I know if im honest i think its a poor thing to do.... i think he will get something lined up its weather or not it will be good enough at the current state of things... hes always had a company car so never paid tax insurance and very little fuel contribution so thats something that may have to be considered... if he does get made redundant there should be at least a months wage.... i hope :S and by the sounds it will take immediate effect ..... i just can not believe it this month i finish paying a loan and an outstanding wedding marquee so that freed up 467, plus we normally have a good few hundred spare so next month we were looking at 800 available but now it may be that we are back to struggling by and i feel we have worked so hard to get here

This is a bit of an ad - using my own site binreminded.com I have listed all my monthly bills so that I get a text reminder to pay - this has a three-fold effect. 1. To save money I should reduce the number of times my phone pings me about a bill - this could lead to 'a ping reducing strategy'. 2. But by being reminded when to pay I will avoid late payments. Most people forget to ensure they have sufficient funds to meet all outgoings now and again. One late payment can cost you £10s of pounds. 3. By going through my bank account and listing all the dates I pay a bill I can see (via the overview button) 'when' I need money the most. I could either try to bring payments together so one monthly text message pings reminds me to pay say all bills or alternatively spread them apart so I get a weekly ping. Having no pings for bills would be the ultimate goal. But lots of pings for wages, holidays and 'other' things.
