DWP Work Retraction

I haven't forgotten about this I am still waiting for the funding to arrive. (In any case there is usually a three year time limit on these matters.)

[NickNick]

Oh this is genius. ;o

I am guessing that someone has included an email address at cuk when hitting reply all?

Marvellous thread.....

The original e-mails were sent to all and sundry, if you wish to remain anonymous you should not use the "reply to all option" alternatively post here.

No one will post here as they aren't on the stuff you are on.

I haven't forgotten about this, I am due some compensation from an RTA and it is taking longer to arrive than expected. When it does I will use some of it to obtain an opinion.

I'm glad that's cleared it up, anyway.

An opinion about what? You're still making no sense at all.

Does anyone know what this guy/girl/thingie is on about?

Or, alternatively, On?

Nope.

The only info I can glean from this is that Synergise offered you some work with DWP and then decided that they no longer required your services (for whatever reason), correct? Also that they maybe insisting on contractors having clearance before submitting them?

Which bit are you objecting to and why? Did they refuse to put you forward without clearance? Did you sign a contract with no notice period, which they have now invoked? Did they just change their minds? Are they refusing to pay for work done?

Details would be v. helpful indeed.

Some weird bot ?

As mentioned above there is no certainty as to the outcome of this matter. For the time being it is worth keeping all documents (e-mails etc.).

If you turned down other work to accept this "offer" you should probably retain those documents as well.

What on Earth are you talking about? A brief overview would be very helpful.

Some of you may have received an e-mail about this matter. I am awaiting a payout on an RTA and will use some of that money to obtain advice on this matter.

No one should be overly optimistic about the outcome, however there is little harm in obtaining a professional opinion. Assuming the professional agrees I will post his opinion on this site.

If you know of other contractors who have received the same treatment perhaps you could direct them here. There is usually a three year time limit on these matters (please note I do not profess to be an expert so I could be wrong).

If nothing else you may be able to express a public opinion on this matter anonymously.

It might help if we knew what the hell you were on about, of course. Is it as simple as someone at DWP realising that Synergize are breaking the Cabinet Office's rules by limiting themselves to cleared staff? Are the company in trouble in some way? Are you another contractor who thinks he's owed a living and goes screaming to Mummy when his pseudo-permie "employment rights" are abused?

I think we need to know...

Newbie awaiting moderation, so the first one doesn't seem to count.

Or so DS24 told me

But he has made a post. or does starting a thread not count as a post?
