GOV.UK Deals & Offers

Just clarifying it for people to make it black & white. No offence.

That's why I said I'd check with the EST (cheeky) I was simply passing on the information I was given.

Just because they said it doesn't make it true. Seems pretty clear from the terms they agree to with the EST that they cannot charge.

@nitro228 I just picked up my bike at my local after using the voucher, no admin fee. I did bring up what you posted with them and they said the shop is actually within their right to charge as it takes 15mins to process the voucher. My bike shop said they considered setting a £5 admin fee but in the end decided against it. They also mentioned that once you give the ok to preform the work then you are eligible for all the fees stated out before. Of course I'd double check with EST but it seems that your bike store has just set a pretty high fee relative to the worth of the voucher. Saying that if their hourly rate is £60 then £15 would be understandable if it takes 15mins. Glad my local decided against charging.

Cheers. Will get my bike back first and try and get a receipt showing the admin charge before doing that

Over the bridge, its now free entry too. ;)

How do i go to wales?

VPN: Wales :D

I think you're confusing hime with Jacob Rees Mogg :D

But BetaMax is better

Try to apply for public sector jobs, the forms are horrible though, that's how I got out. I went down the volunteering route (1 year), been in this job for 5 years now with a family and mortgage with kid on the way. I miss my volunteering. Try to focus on getting a job, not fighting with them, they are just doing their job but I remember one person making me apply for 40k job, you do get unhelpful idiots though, I've met homeless people and people who have been in the system for 10 years, they just get them to apply for jobs but nothing else. They outsource to private companies so the responsibility falls on them, you can't win. Bit like in my current job... Focus on working hard and hopefully it pays of. These schemes are more political sometimes than helpful, like a job fare with no jobs... I won against 3 sanctions btw. Good luck!

No, he’s useless.

Do they have courses to help people spot fake news & propaganda? That's what we need more than anything in this country. Can't believe people still trust the Tories after they way they've botched handling Coronavirus. Almost 30,000 dead now (officially, way more in reality). Such a tragedy and avoidable.

wish mine did sadly I cant work while this is going on !! roll on getting back

My job does that

The details of the vulnerable people are stored on SCS on NHS Spine. Something so dense you need Internet Expoler and clicking away the securiy warnings to access Something that isn't integrated into hospital systems. The idea a mere website could access it is fanciful.

Cheers buddy for your help on reapplying the form much appreciated (y)

Glad u got supplies eventually.

Just found this on my doorstep today looking out the window has a nosey neighbor,no knowledge of it being there has the door bell works even the knock knock works but hey some good food parcel this is guys for the vulnerable people stay safe all hopefully Boris will sort ya out soon take care

I signed up a month ago heard nothing so dont hold your breath (mad)

A hospital local to me will be stopping free parking for staff on 18th May.

Yes about time the services were taken back from the private leeches

This should have been pledged long before any crisis. Uber heat added.

Also been charged parking fee by my trust this month. Guess they didnt get the memo or more likely just chose to ignore it and charge staff anyway

The wife has been charged parking fee's while working at the hospital this week, we are hoping they will do the decent thing and provide rebate.

Same in Leeds it was On regional news last week

Pity that sellout sadiq still not done this

all the traffic wardens are not working now

I don't think they actually care. I mean I hit the right notes being a delivery driver for the food places, but really I think beyond irresponsibility parking on doubles and in disabled bays it's a free for all now. Why bother at all? Some folk need emergency supplies eh chemists, hey even grabbing up loaves from the shop is pretty essential right now. Especially for those stuck in a job and unable to get to the big supermarket shops during a shift (y) 🏻 good on them. Redeploy the staff where they are needed.

Calm before the storm mate... It is gonna get busy for them fast.
