I am glad, to have a chance to read and write on this forum as it gives me the sight into problem.

Personally I don't know anyone from bmi cabin crew around me to ask for advice, so I share my doubts with all of you ...

I wouldn't like to make a mistake moving to UK and working for the wrong company.
If the average salary for supervisor is 1400£, I guess is not very much, as I would have to pay for renting a room (ap. 400£ if I am not wrong), telephone bills (how much?), city transportation pass (how much?), food (how much?), possible medical visits as I've heard that bmi doesn't offer free medicals for their workers (how much for particular visit?) .... and finally how much would I save to take back to Poland...? Probably not much more than I save now.

I counted on sth not less than 1800£, but probably I didn't consider a UK tax....

There really must be sth wrong with the company, if almost all voices are against...

Meybe it isn't that bad with my current company as I thought, if we still have full free service on board, not have to clean the aircraft (nobody is even thinking about this), can choose our days off for the next month as we like, exchange our flights, almost never exceed working hours (apart from unpredictible events), usually do only 2 sectors a day (like WAW-VIE-WAW which is totally 5 hours, I have 4-sector flights no more than 3 times a month).
I only wanted to earn more money and be promoted within the new company... but now I am not sure if I can make it with bmi conditions living in London....

I count on your suggestions.
If anyone has enough patience to answer some more of my questions about supervisor position then please pm me.

thanx.
