:mad:I feel so angry at the moment.I know an agent who has woorked really hard on a new agency,put loads of effort into it,woorks 3 nights per week,after a full time job.He earned £65 and had £35 deducted.Whats the point by the time you have put petrol in,used your phone tax ins etc.Even after 12 weeks i cant see this working,better off being a scivvy.0

I too am an agent in NI I only found this forum this afternoon:T
its only a matter of time b4 word spreads that it exists! 8 hr's later,
I have read every post so far ...... im gobsmacked! My AM & DM stated that it is only the agents over here that r losing commission and complaining!!! after reading this obviously they are trying to fill our heads full of ** anything for a quiet life eh!? they say they r not happy either but their hands r tied!! Security r now going to have such a job on their hands,I wonder how I go about applying for a job in this department,as a lot of foolish comments on here gonna mean a lot of ppl sacked.... I am 10 yr's an agent and also losing a small fortune,on the verge of walking too. I wud like to advise ppl to b careful,ur actions can warrant dire consequences think 1st .... I represented Provey during a court case re a fraudulent agent a few yr's back,as I was summonsed as a witness,not a nice thing to c,but the silly girl deserved all she got really,I cnt abide by a thief :mad: and rite now I feel thats exactly wot PROVIDENT are a bunch of thieves:eek: I will however bite my tongue & ride the storm a lil bit longer ... Good Luck to all u Hardworking Agents,lets hope the future is Bright0 -
Provident, it's time to kick this scheme into touch now.
You have destroyed the name of the Company within days, so much bad publicity. Loyal Agents have turned against you, you stabbed them in the back.
The public read these postings...what impression of the Company do they see ?
The name Provident has become a dirty word.
End it now.0 -

If you have a crap book and get your payments yes you can make money but remember a few weeks later you will lose it again. Security can't do anything as it first has to be proven who you are 100%. Agents in my office are going along with a no/little sales on week 20 also. Most agents I know are actively looking for other jobs and a few have been speaking to other companies so to any AM/ROM peter CROOKS out there I hope you are ready for your business to implode shortly. Just remember who caused it with your GREED!!!
Wow Take a chill pill dude!! I am with use all the way ... can u not read?? :money: U have picked me up wrong,I ment other agents will hopefully find out about this and join us in our fight,I could'nt give a damn about higher levels monitoring us!!! I am losing a fortune! Im just stating the obvious if agents (as suggested per previous posts on here)take monies which they feel is rightfully theirs the power's that b will come dwn hard,it can be looked upon as fraud,If Security knock ur door to check on wkly reported figures to ur DM which dnt actually exist as agents have made them up,it will spark a huge security breech,im just saying to ppl b careful,the courts will rip use apart! R u an Agent? If so Y b so negative towards my input? these sort of posts do all us good hard working agents like myself, no JusticeI have used this site for many many yr's it is a gr8 way of freedom of speech which every1 is entitled to have :j

I’ll tell you all what I’m doing this week and suggest anyone thinking of leaving does the same. I went to the office as usual to collect my bag, asked for a float cheque. Cashed the cheque. Took my wages as per balancing sheet. Now I’m NOT out collecting and will take back the uncollected clip and balance of the cheque next week and say good bye. Im telling all my customers that ring me, I’ve got car problems and will collect next week. I’m txting fake figures to my manager every morning to “keep him happy” lol. Well hes not exactly sticking up for us. I’m doing this because the last agent that left with a greivance waited 7 weeks for their last weeks wage. UP YOURS PROVIDENT. LOBL LAUGH OUT BLOODY LOUD……………………………………………….Cant wait till next week when manger calls saying " What the hells going on". lol.0
