Christmas casual royal mail

I am so angry my son has got a christmas casual job at the royal mail in Manchester doing nights.
He should of been paid today and has not been.
You cannot speak with the Royal Mail as they do everything through Angard staffing you can never get through to them via phone and when you email there is no response.
They have worked a week in arrears so should of been paid today. When he was in work last night all the Angard casual christmas staff seem to of not been paid the money should of gone into there banks accounts after midnight.
What are the Royal Mail upto they are already only getting minimum wages even though they work nights but, my lads thought was it was better than having no job like most.

    The problems you highlight seem to be a cause for concern among many casual staff at Royal Mail. I'm sure if you have a root around the forum you'll come across similar complaints and maybe some advice.

    I have heard from a casual postal worker that if you finish your shift early, you don't get paid for it as you haven't completed the required hours. Not quite sure how that works or even if they can legally do that but it sounds like a crap job to me.

  • Firstly this seems to be a problem with the payroll company, Royal Mail will have an HR department and that department will communicate with Angard. Contact them and go from there.

    Make sure that pay date is correct, it might be that your son's paperwork was not processed before the payroll cut off date due to when he started etc.

    I would expect payroll to bat it back to Angard TBH.
    however RMs payroll dept. is 01142414534
    lines are always hammered on a Friday
  • If you go on the Royal Mail Chat, there is a lot of angry temps who haven't been paid or paid incorrectly, some have been working since November. My SO was also meant to be paid today along with his collagues but it has yet to show up into the account. They are giving excuss after excuss ;(
