Gents, thank you for taking the time to reply to my question, which I imagien has been asked plenty of times before!
Cazatou, Rigga, you are correct, there was no force etc applied to me to sign the RoS however, if I knew what would happen 4 years later I might not have signed it in the first place! Incidentally, there was no advice given, jsut a quick 'here's something you all need to sign' so we all did.
I have had a brief chat with the desk officer as he has all of ISK wanting to speak to him and it would be that they are keen to have RoS honoured - seems silly if they might make me redundant and give me £20k and my commitment bonus when I would be perfectly happy to leave with nothing now!
Thanks anyway, just been a frustrating day at work hearing the manning brief. Thanks again!
