The Communications Union レビュー 

Do not bother joining this union, they are useless. If you find yourself in need of them at a tribunal don't expect to win.
You will find your case badly mishandled and will stand no chance of winning as long as they represent you. Their legal department cannot even be bothered to respond to emails.

I resigned from Royal Mail after 36 years service just after the strike action and I want to make this clear it was not because of The not fit for purpose Royal Mail it was wholly because of the CWU they are lead by people only interested in their future and nice big pensions they are a absolute disgrace they stabbed us all in the back to maintain themselves.

We should all belong to a union, we should all be supported and have our voices heard. The CWU has allowed our rights to be destroyed and cost members £1000s in post redundancy pay that the union should have protected. We have been so let down by the CWU. Pick a different union

This union is terrible they are all for the management do nor waste your money on subs expect you to vote on strike action but no pay for strike so where do your subs go in the pocket of the people st the top who stand by different pay rates for same jobs ask for accounts where is mo ey going don't even get a pen or diary

Do not waste your money the reps work for the employer. They refuse to come represent you in meetings when managers are their friends. Jokers

Don’t waste your money! If I’d of known how useless this union was I would have found a solicitor of my own before my tribunal!
I’ve constantly chased the branch, area, regional and the chair!
I’ve now been told that head office legal apparently lost all the emails from the beginning of March!
I’m having to pull out of my tribunal because of the time frame left!!

Lincolnshire DO.............No wonder the ex area CWU Rep never returned calls/texts or emails to the then in-house rep, when members were in their hour of need. Managers as mates that is how. Now the said ex CWU area rep is a manage himself at the very branch he once laughingly "supported". Can you honestly believe that? I can, it all makes perfect sense now. So, now we have the in-house rep, sub rep and ex area rep now cuddly managers bed mates. Still unwilling to help members even more now. How do you all sleep at night taking members monies, whilst looking them all in the face and offering double standards by return? Pathetic.

Don't waste your money, absolutely useless, infact I can not find words to express how useless they are. They know every manipulative way to put the emphasis back on the person who brought the complaint to them in the first place. I've tried to speak to the senior deputy General secretary who should be made aware of what is going on and why i left the union. You have more chance on speaking to the King of England. I even asked for an oppointment for him to call me. No go, I did speak to five other people though who were incapable of dealing with it and incapable of arranging an oppintment. The man must be some sort of god. Anyhow don't waste your time and money. Just ring Acas who are more professional,polite and give better advice for FREE. Just make sure you get the right adviser. This union will back the employer more than back the employee. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

The worst union ever, This union will not stand up for you, they are basically a company union that will always put employer before members. I needed their help twice in the past and each time they told me they can do nothing, when clearly they could do something. Then when it comes to national disputes they will always and I mean always negotiate worse terms and conditions for their members. The leadershp are totally overpaid with a whopping 150 grand + going to the head of the union. A large percentage of the money members pay goes straight into the leaderships pocket. Do not join them they are a waste of money. The help and advise they do give is equivalent to citizens advice who are independent and know a lot more about your rights at work and employment laws.

I have always been proud to be a member of the CWU until the end of last year. Now I'm pretty disgusted to be honest. As a postal worker I always thought that my union had my back but their actions in recent months have been shameful. They have been extremely week and seem to be more concerned about their own reputation than that of the people they are supposed to be defending. I would not recommend the CWU to anyone and will personally be removing my membership as soon as possible! Complete waste of money!!

The union's General Secretary is Dave Ward, who enjoyed a pay deal of £143,000 in the year ending December 2019

As this guy said:-
'1. Royal Mail is making a loss so needs to lay off staff
2. CWU is pushing Royal Mail to put pay up even though they don’t have the money
3. CWU pushes strike action
4. Customers don’t get their purchases delivered
5. Companies stop using Royal Mail because their customers are getting bad service
6. Royal Mail has to lay off even more people meaning more people lose their jobs'

And as this guy said:-
'The worst union ever, I wasted my money for 4 years and when I needed help, they wouldn’t answer the emails or calls. I now lost my job and they are not even helping with the tribunal process. Don’t waste your money!'

They just prey on people vulnerable enough to get their monies and are totally fine with it collapsing small businesses in the process and causing nationwide delays, even for things such-as medication (from my own experience).

They won't protect you if it comes down to it, they are just greedy.

there marketing and gaining profits from donations from causing chaos there like injury lawers they sniff out drama and gain financial gains and marketing selling there t shirts and flags and other merch and polical gains if they was supporting why haven't they paid loss of earnings to the strikers who have came under there call and influence once they lose the strikes people can't afford to keep this going with rent and mortgages and family's to pay for the workers will have to go back.. the cwu will pack up then and move along after making profits and marketing gains causing complete chaos for others and leaving the strikers lending money off family members and taking loans to cover there loss of earnings putting themselves in dire situations for following these clowns honestly people need to wake up and smell the coffee what this organisation is doing there asking for half outs and selling g t-shirts and mugs and flags all merch where does all the money go I wonder not to the strikers can't can't provide them with free warm food and clothes but charge them for the flags and t shirts and badges pathetic ...

You absolutely do not care. Thanks for contributing to my business being in tatters over the festive period.

Thank you for striking I'm now sat freezing cold with no electric post has been and no voucher for my pre payment. My poor old dog is shivering and if he suffers as a result of your strikes then I hope God can forgive you as I won't.

Wow so Thompsons minions are in force here up the union

I see a lot of trolls on her complaining about strikes. The strikes were voted for by the members and are very welcome

Total time-warp, based in the 70s, ruining people's lives, with their own petty demands! Royal Mail is working despite your thug-like actions, where the general public are losing out! I have two parcels that have just gone astray, with the, so called, guarantees for delivery in 48 hours, and tracking, not honoured! These will both end up as claims, and since these ae sales, I have to negotiate the poor buyers, and all I can and will do is blame the CWU! We have posties working throughout your dim-wit strikes, and they are happy to work, because they are not part of your Red Ken union! Time you all got off your bring Britain to its knees high horse, and realised you are despised by the people who pay the wages to those you call out on strike! Selfish, arrogant, left wing misery makers!

CWU ARE WELL KNOWN TROUBLE MAKERS THROWING TOYS AT OF PRAM SO ITS JUST POSTIES WHO ARE IN THIS COST OF LIVING CRISIS GET REAL AND BY STRIKING IS CAUSING THE PEOPLE YOU EXPECT TO BACK YOU UP THE PUBLIC NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOUR MOANING ABOUT THIS THAT AND THE OTHER ROYAL MAIL AS GIVEN YOU A GREAT DEAL YET YOU WANT TO CONTROL THE COMPANY ITS ABOUT TIME YOU GREW UP THE UK IS NOT ALL ABOUT YOU WE IN TGIS TOGETHER THE FINAL OUTCOME WILL BE JOB LOSSES AND FURTHER COST OF LIVING WE AS A NATION COULD ALL FOLLOW YOUR EXAMPLE AND STRIKE SO THE WHOLE OF UK COMES TO A STAND STILL WAKE UP AND GET REAL

No good and not helpful to the workers of royal mail.
They are a wast of time don't help royal mail workers just thinking of their selfs, why don't they pay the worker of royal mail that don't want to strike from there wages. Royal mail and all the workers would be better of leaving the CWU and employing decent people who don't only think of there selfs.

To anyone thinking about joining or staying in this union think about this:

1. Royal Mail is making a loss so needs to lay off staff
2. CWU is pushing Royal Mail to put pay up even though they don’t have the money
3. CWU pushes strike action
4. Customers don’t get their purchases delivered
5. Companies stop using Royal Mail because their customers are getting bad service
6. Royal Mail has to lay off even more people meaning more people lose their jobs

So CWU, keep up the great work of reducing the number of jobs available for your members, and of making the lives of ordinary people who need deliveries harder.

Unions should be ashamed of themselves. Stay well away.
