Morning peeps have come home to try and thaw out it is freezing out there.. The way those poor workers have been treated is appallng they were all in a meeting this morning there is another this afternoon . The upshot of this morning is there is no money to pay them at the end of the month and the subcontractors can go sing as well they will have to find money themselves to pay any staff they have. Can see why city link put out the statement when they did if they had done it earlier they would have had a riot on there hands and no parcels would have been moved. So those poor peeps wont even be paid for the work they have put in

Maybe it is pure bad luck but to see Mr Moulton involved in such as this again just makes me wonder.
Where was the oversight by regulators ? He just seems to be able to walk away with profits & leave the average worker to suffer.

LOL you clearly have no idea about how Better Capital works obviously,everything done by the company is legal and above board, it happens all the time and you wouldn't know about it!!.

And for the record "rosemac" your depot must be one of the only ones where directly contracted staff were not paid as you state,i am personally aware of 5 depots within the Southern region where all staff have been paid in full for outstanding monies and nothing further is now owed,they have all been issued with the statuatory paperwork given to affected employees in these situations.

This is not the case for the s/e contractors and they are the only ones who need to claim outstanding monies owed through the government insolvency service.

City Link will be reborn soon under new management and backers and at least they will be able to pick and choose who they employ rather than some of the dead wood who have now gone.

Incorrect...at least not in the Southern region.

I seem to glory in my own ignorance,as it were.
I will bow down to your knowledge of fairness & the financial markets etc.
Thank you for your kind words & may you be rewarded for them in the most appropiate way.

All the very best.
