VENT: bonus/bandwagoners

So today I have been told my bonus is changing. I will be capped now. The reason
Bandwagons like the PPI mis sell forum on here and CAG has made the FCA change the rules
Not all insurance or financial product was missold. Just bandwagonners jumping in.
Ive now had to take a pay cut of around £8k. So next time you think people who work in insurance/finance are all criminals/greedy bankers theres some who just want to make ends meet
So I hope that chokes you bandwagoners.

A paycut of £8k? Oh give over.
The FCA put a cap on bonuses, not salary, so if you are that annoyed by it then negotiate with your employer in a higher salary instead.

Stupid vent?
My wage was made up mainly of bonuses. Now thats capped my basic is crap.
The FCA brought it on because of bandwagoners who said their "PP what" was missold
Oh and in an industry where people can jump in to do your job in a flash its not wise to make yourself unemployed wanting payrises.0 -

SimonSays has posted some rubbish on this forum, but I do have to show a little sympathy. PPI wasn't as mis sold as much as people like to think, people DO jump on the bandwagon to get one over on the banks and of course to milk it. I know this because my Dad was a bank manager who never mis sold PPI, yet had customers claiming it because they could.
The solution would be for banks to be made more transparent; then they could start charging people for the privilege of banking instead of having employees mis-sell in order to chase a bonus."Always fulfil your needs, only fulfil your wants when your needs are no longer a concern" - citricsquid0 -

Banks / financial institutions made a commercial decision the effectively pay out PPI claims with minimal investigation, as it was cheaper to do this than properly-investigate all claims.0
