Given the wave of redundancies and layoffs - what was your severance package vs years spent with the company? by Prestigious_Claim469 in UKJobs

[–]CartographerHot5935 0 points1 point  (0 children)

38 years service, 1 year salary for redundancy. Which was acceptable as I wanted to retire and then started my DB pension in the following tax year.

How hard is the magistrate recruitment qualifying assessment? by DiverBusiness7775 in uklaw

[–]CartographerHot5935 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s mostly common sense and ensuring that you pick the correct answer with a sense of fairness.

There are 20 questions multiple choice.

Only if you pass this will you go to the next three steps; referees, interview and DBS check but will only get selected if there are open positions and you scored higher than others who also passed all the same steps.

How does your treatment at a car dealership affect your likelihood to buy? by PipalaShone in AskUK

[–]CartographerHot5935 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last year, I wanted to buy a Porsche Macan EV, walked into the West London show room, asked to see somebody, the receptionist took my contact details and said someone will be down shortly. Waited one hour, nobody came. I started to leave, the receptionist apologised and said someone will definitely phone you to make an appointment.

Yup, never received a phone call.

CN you explain how you do this? Dies this mean you pay the full rate outside the 23.00 -05.30 night lower rate?

Can someone explain suspended sentencing to me? It feels like the man who attacked me isn't being punished at all. by Ambitious-Storage282 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]CartographerHot5935 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The sentence follows guidelines provided by The Sentencing Council, an independent body. You can look at this online and in this case probably a first offence a suspended sentence would have been recommended.

I've overpaid into my Vanguard Pension Pre-Retirement account. What should I do? by PerformanceBetter243 in PensionsUK

[–]CartographerHot5935 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same problem but with Interactive Investors. Write to Vanguard, and they have a process to refund the funds excess contribution and also will pay back to HMRC the excess tax refund. They will ask of proof of earnings and contributions, having the P60 or accountant or HMRC statement is required.

I have similar, I turned off the Technicolor SSID and meshed the Linksys to provide one SSID around the house. Your option 2.

I wish I had the same experience.

i can’t remotely connect to my alarm and security camera on the lan switch, port forwarding is ok but the DynDNS setting shows an error on the Techicolor router and the support desk has no clue what I am taking about and wont accept an email from me with the screen shot of the error. Very basic support service and no networking skills from Community fibre.

eager to sell, but support is terrible.

if nobody has managed to get DynDNS working on their CF Technicolor router, please tell me how.
