At least you have had a letter. I was made redundant yesterday over the phone. I know at least two crew who yesterday had a letter confirming continued employment only to find out that they were in fact redundant.

Well, I guess it was inevitable, and I am really sorry for all you 748 drivers, and your families. I have only met a few of you in my short career at Emerald (2 months, before my redundancy came through)! But you all seem a good bunch. There is nobody at Emerald that I met who wasn't giving their all for the company. (I never met MOB). Such a shame to see the needless demise of Emerald.
I wish you all the very best and hope you all get suitable employment in the very near future.

I have not been an Emerald employee, but I have three friends who are/have been. You are a t**t - have a regard for all those now out of work, and stay away from this thread.

Yes me too.
I am ATP flight deck.
I received a letter yesterday off KPMG confirming that my "terms & conditions of employment will remain unaltered & I will be paid in the normal way."
Then today receive another letter off KPMG stating that my employment is now terminated!
OPFW - No mail on Company mail.
Not impressed really, but what can you say??!??
Jemgirl - that's the best idea I've heard all day. Count me in.
To everyone else - it was an adventure, shame it had to come to this.
Good luck everyone...

Help is needed
I am deeply sorry to hear more of us laid off.
To those pilots affected, it might be worth trying to get the IPA, Balpa or both involved in fighting for a decent (???) redundancy package, lost wages, expenses etc.
Strongly suggest discuss this on the balpa/Emerald website for those balpa members !!!!
To those not in the above unions, but affected, will help as best as possible.

Well .. time to get the house on the market
Nice to see the administrators are earning their money .. when is the company actually going to send an e mail letting people know what has really gone on and that the AOC that the CAA said was "temporarily suspended" pending Emerald getting their house in order hasnt been reissued.
Come on MOB be a man in the final hour of what used to be a thriving company and at least let the troups know what really went on. You at least have other irons in the fire .. so disruption to your life will be minimal .. for lots of others life will never be the same.
Do we take it then that no one wants to buy the company?

Supersize That Ego
Reason that AOC not reinstated is that Tw*t Face wouldn't step down as Responsible Manager - a fundamental requement of the Belgrano in Gatwick. He decided to let it collapse rather than step down - pure and simple. He must be AJ's love child - no other reason makes any sense.
6 crew retained for 748. If you answer 'NO' to following you are sacked -
1. 748 rated pilot?
2. In Check?
3. LPL Based?
4. Brown Nose?
Also, if you are a 748 TRE and out of check, guess what? - You're fired!
Even if you have been fired T.Face may phone you and say ' Don't go anywhere, we are going to need people when we get up and running'
Breathtaking!
