    I wouldn't mind an update on this as well.

    It was a very interesting case and as the time has lapsed for the result of the appeal, it would be good to know if the OP has cleared her name.

    I just wonder though if the OP has been offered a settlement incorporating a confidentiality clause which would explain why she has not come back.

    It is possible due to the large number of posters that the company were aware of this thread and they certainly would have no desire to have their dirty laundry aired in public - just a thought.

    If the OP is reading this however, I hope everything turned out fine and you can now draw a line under your experience.

    You've had backdated pay and been reinstated - so I don't think you will get much more.
    Well done - it's good to hear good news for a change.
    If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.

    Congratulatios, I'm so glad that things were finally resolved, and you can finally put a line under it, and thanks for updating us on your case, as it's always good to hear a success story for a change.

    Good luck

    Ive been following this thread from the start but havent contributed to it until now. I have been disgusted at the way your employer has treated you and i am so glad you won your case Milo.
    Congrats if thats the right word.

    Why? Surely Milo's character has been injured and deserves to compensated for that damage.
    The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark

    I agree to some extent - but by virtue of being reinstated, her name has been cleared.

    There are ongoing investigations so it would be wise to await the outcome of those before reigniting the affair by demanding compensation.
