Any more news on Cattles? had a read thorough the Ft and they haven't updated (or can't) anything else since the 1st April.
The wf office in Exeter is about to close (apparently) The Truro office is manned by 3 now the area manager, the office manager and the telephonist. Closed quite a bit, maybe they don't like people calling on them giving them a hard time????????????????????:rolleyes::rotfl:0 -
I think that goes all the way to the top, Gina.

You had a good day then??????????:eek: (oops sorry!) I have given up with them, not going to waste time & effort any more. I am just going to sit back & wait, I don't really know what i expect to happen.
No good me ringing the wf lot down here thev'e all been made redundant!:T
Rang the reporter today & gave him my tale of woe.
He seems to have collected quite a bit of info on wf, nothing that would give them a gold star.0 -
