That’s the usual agency tosh fella 13 weeks they’ll drop you off at week 10 for a few days that then breaks the 13 week rule .
wouldn’t be Manpower would it .

simple thing is drive past and see who else is pulling out of there but I bet its all RM traffic ( Crown Property and all that )

It’s not manpower. I’ve just been looking on the net and found whistl ( formally tent post) has a depot in Warrington. Maybe it’s them?

Ahh TNT … I can really see RM allowing competition to work on the same site … maybe the same estate but it’ll be like having Fred’s hotdog stand selling Jill’s bacon butties out the same window … no help I know but you can be sure its just another agency scam…

I thought that but if tnt do post but don’t have post boxes how else do they collect their mail. I’m scratching my head now lol

Hermes have a gaff in warrington,they are into that line of work and ive seen alot of their trls being pulled by subbies.

yeah but I cant really see tnt being parked in their … and I thought TNT post was mainly junk post or alike that’s delivered into RM for house hold delivery …

I’m getting dizzy now :grimacing:

Tnt have a depot near toys r us on europa bulavard. Just round the corner. Can’t think of anyone else who does mail. I’m on there tomorrow when they send me details so I’ll let you know

Royal Mail do the ‘final mile’ so they take in loads of mail from tnt, UK mail etc. they deliver to RDCs and to the larger mail centres. Royal Mail don’t sub out at all they have more than enough drivers in their distribution network inc internal substitutes to cover absences. Warrington have quite a few hubs for the larger mail companies.

TNT Post now called Whistl.

Jobs 1 - 10 of 64 - We are Whistl, the Royal Mail’s number one challenger and we’re making a noise in delivery! A unique opportunity available not to be missed!

So theyre making that much noise in delivery they have to use their compettitiors name to entice drivers.
Royal Mail don’t do ‘subbies’ except at Christmas and they don’t do temp to perm. They may advertise jobs which will go to current agency staff who have been with them for a long time but others have been working there on agency for 5+ years.

It’s for a company called secured mail. Never heard ov them.
