A couple of hours ago, someone wrote a post about arranging a mass refusal of loans etc, but the post has disappeared.
It refered to the Providents current main aims, therefore it was someone in a higher position than us measly peasants.
Why have you removed your posting? Or is my p.c playing up.
It is a great idea to arrange a mass refusal of loans, as my AM/DM is constantly pushing for sales. They don't care if the people cant afford it, it's not them who get penalised.
There has been over 2000 views on this topic, so to all the agents who are reading this, put down what you think and see if the provi like the bad press.
Go to agentssayno web site possibly what you are looking for is on there. We have had agents meeting and we all agree no issue wk 200 -
WELL DONE AGENTS. You've got them running scared. Just had TXT from manager telling me theres £100 bonus for hitting my sales targets on week 20 and 21. This makes it more important for agents to do no sales on week 20.

Of course they can afford to give you a £100 bonus if you reach your sales target cos its our own money they are giving back to us. Crafty or what0 -

A real lack of posters now... believe the revolt has been crushed.
Food for thought have you ever made a compliance error making the agreement void in court ? were you charged for it ?
Former top boy Burrows has returned to Provi from Shopacheck need i say more.0 -

I think you will find most people are now posting on the agents say no website.0 -
There seems to be opinions here that the DMs are paid mega bucks. Let me stop you there... I have been with the company 3 years and in that time am still earning less than I was 10 years ago. I have not seen this £1500 tax free vouchers thing you whinge on about, and we too have to use our own vehicles to chase arrears certain lazy agents dont call on. I have been lucky that my agents have been constructive about this new procedure, despite losing some money, however there are certain people within our office who just want to rally the troops round to cause a problem when they have only had £10 deducted themselves. The DMs have a load of crap thrown at them by agents, and to be honest I would be glad to see some of these whinging fools go to Shopacheck to see how green the grass is over there. You can bet it aint as green as you think. make your mind up, either get o with it and control your arrears properly instead of creamin off the good payers and lettin the rest go to court, or ship out and whinge somewhere else.0

DM Bod,
Looks like you forgot to mention you get 50+pence per mile for using your car.0 -

Perhaps then, you should take your own advice and ship out and winge somewhere else?
Why do DM's (not all, but certainly mine) seem to think that by the agents finally coming together to share their experiences, that they are somehow "rallying the troops" or "being a rebel"?
In my case, I just feel that it is helpful to speak to others in the same situation. I haven't lost anything yet, (notice the word yet) infact I have gained, but those gains can't go on forever.
As an agent you re very isolated, sometimes not speaking to another for weeks so finally we are joining together to become one voice. Which is obviously a real threat for the powers that be, otherwise there wouldn't be this big campaign to stop us talking!0
