    But is my manager allowed to 'do me a favour' with official company documents? Surely these documents mean something as they have been signed by HR?

    FYI My mortgage starts when the building of my house is complete which is in Sep/Oct; I am moving to Leicester in June and living with family so have 3 months to find a job.

    Thanks

    I took my job on a verbal confirmation of salary and then told this salary to the mortgage provider. When I received my contract, I read it and noticed it was less than I was told. I said this to my manager and said I am currently going through a mortgage application and need the salary they originally stated. My manager said she would get this increased. I then received a letter of confirmation from HR confirming my pay increase. I spoke to my area manager today to make sure it would appear on my payslip (as this is what the mortgage people are waiting for) and she said to me they only made the letter as a fake for the mortgage people and my pay will not be going up.

    Now I am worried as you have informed me this could be fraud but I have never lied, only been lied to. Surely my employers are the ones committing fraud? Does having a signed letter confirming my pay increase from HR not mean anything?

    Thanks

    That's not what you said on the other thread, you knew your salary was not high enough for the mortgage you need.

    You're wrapping yourself up in tales. If you carry on like this you're going to end up with no job and no house.

    And jobless as well! Seriously OP this sounds like a disaster in the making.

    get yourself a job in Leicester first (after all you can stay with family) and then get a house.

    I'm guessing you don't have a cunning plan if you don't get a job.....
