Not sure if this is in the right place, please move if it isn't
I'm just looking for some advice & sorry it is so long!
I started a part time job 8 weeks ago as a cleaner.
As I am on JSA, not proud of that and want to get off it as soon as poss.. I find it a struggle to live.
So basically my employer gave me forms to fill in with my bank details on etc.. The envelope they gave me didn't have a postcode so I thought it wouldn't get there so I got an address of their website.
I had to ask them if they had received anything yet and they said No and they would issue me new forms.
It was another good couple of weeks till i got the new forms, filled it in etc.. and my employer came in and took the forms and told me I had to get a better photocopy of my Passport ID. Don't see why, the one I gave them was good enough?
Anyways the next day I went into work with my passport and photocopied it so it was a better version. Bearing in mind by this time I had been working there for a good month.
They said they would come in and collect it.. they never did. I had to phone them for 50th time to be told I had to fax it! and that they need a photocopy of my card part of my driving license! Why they couldn't of told me that in the first place I have no idea! It is unnecessary for them to need 2 IDs, apparently its 'company policy'
What kind of cleaning company doesn't supply bleach or loo rolls by the way?
There wasn't a fax machine in work so I had to pay to do it.. Another week has gone by.. so i phone them again. Now to find out my fax wasn't clear enough!
I asked when I will receive any wages and they said this week. That didn't happen of course.
By this time I'm really peeved off.
So I phoned them, yet again! And was really off with them and said if you don't sort this soon I am leaving.. I was told somebody will come in and collect my Passport & my driving licence. So today they did. FINALLY.
But was actually quite rude to me asking me why aren't I cleaning? MAYBE I WOULD IF YOU PAYED ME !
After all the lies and excuses as of now I am waiting to see if I am payed at the end of this week.
2 months I have worked there! Without pay!
What do you guys reckon ? Should I take it further if I'm not payed this week?
