Another vote for joining.
Also, don't forget that you can claim tax relief on your union subs so it's a bit less than you think.0 -

Joining a union is a must even if it is just for the legal help...They are also a good way of stopping sociopaths in the office from their bullying.
They are more important today than they have ever been..It is nice to see the value of your house going up'' Why ?
Unless you are planning to sell up and not live anywhere, I can;t see the advantage.
If you are planning to upsize the new house will cost more.
If you are planning to downsize your new house will cost more than it should
If you are trying to buy your first house its almost impossible.0 -
As you are in the private sector, and work for a bank i would definately say NO!
If you were in the public sector, then i would say YES.Young At Heart and Ever The Optimist: "You can't sell ice to Eskimo."

"you don't have to be subscribed for a minimum period to take advantage of union help."
You can always get FREE legal help from the CAB. That's what they're there for. Other than that it's money down the drain bankrolling the Labour Party if you ask me.Young At Heart and Ever The Optimist: "You can't sell ice to Eskimo."
