repayment advice

Posts: 27 Forumite
My company frequently takes up to 3 weeks to a month to repay the expenses I have paid out and they reimburse. I do my expenses weekly cos they are so dire.
As a single parent it makes things very difficult. Are there any guidelines for empl;oyers to reimburse people or is it at their discretion? It has affected my credit rating where as before it was good.
Any advice is greatly received as I am really struggling!

I'm sure you've already asked the company you work for, but do they have company credit cards? If you have regular company expenses, they may give you a card.something missing0

thats unfair - All the companies I worked for either gave a float or a credit card. It could be a company cc which you pay the bill for, just to shift the cost by a few weeks.

Company credit cards have become the norm. If this company isn't prepared to this and that, then perhaps they need to write a proper business plan...
Any company that relies on the credit abilities of it's employees to ensure it's success has a serious long term planning problem.0
