hr now saying pay increase they offered was wrong

I did some training and diversified the roles I could perform for my company after being given the details of what the assosiated pay increase would be.

However when I pointed out to the wage dept I had been underpaid it turns out that the figures hr quoted me are completely wrong. The new wage structure I am on is only marginally better than what I was on before the training and extra role

Is there anything I can do or do I just have to accept a mistake had been made, albeit a very bad mistake

I can't think of much wise than being promised a pay rise that doesn't materialise

  • Go back to your old role and do not accept the new conditions if not happy with the pay for those.

    Did you sign any retention clauses
    Did you not get the pay in writing

    Who paid for the training?
    But a banker, engaged at enormous expense,
    Had the whole of their cash in his care.

    Got the pay raise set out in an email and a contract but the contract was only a specimen and was not the one I would have had to sign

    It was just training by buddying up with colleagues who were doing the role I would also be able to do in addition to my main role
  • I would just go down the route of thats not what we agreed I will keep my old job.
