    Oh here we go again :(

    These contract stipulations are extremely hard for your ex employer to enforce as they legally cannot prevent you from making a living. It would be very costly for them to follow this up through a lawyer and probably not worth their while however I would perhaps take some advice anyway and...

    Please help!!! I have just bought an existing salon which I think has loads of potential and is in a fabulous location - however the loyalty scheme is 1 point for every £10 spent on treatments - each point is worth £1 so basically ALL my clients are getting an instant 10% discount the minute...
