Balpa reps spent a massive amount of effort, together with a couple of BA managers, to present a well-thought out case for HMRC to significantly increase the non-taxable element of allowances. It looked bad at first (similar to cabin crew's figures) but effective NEGOTIATION, together with sound research and a well presented case have resulted in me being about only about £7/month worse off.
How much are you worse off from next month, Romans? (Or MissM, Watersidewker etc
Midman, I apologies about my ignorance on the subjects, but are u suggesting Bassa reps should be negotiating , making deals or making out cases with HMRC?
Can you be more specific about what kind of negotiation,research and well presented cases went on between BALPA and HMRC?
I don't know how worse I am yet, but since (according to the Daily Mail) I am on 35.000 pounds a year, frankly I am not bothered.
