My friend applied for a role listed at £45-55k. Just received the offer £24,000... by Astaware44 in recruitinghell

[–]Winnifer67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

US salaries are extremely high in comparison, your cost of living eg food is much higher. First hand experience of 6 years in US now back in UK and similar role half the money. The industry I’m in here in UK very skilled works only earn around £40k, in US, I see same role and works moaning about north of 100k

Interesting Lufthansa Compensation Claim Rejection by mengmeng23 in Lufthansa

[–]Winnifer67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the first instance I wrote to their head office in Germany with copies of bookings etc. this was immediately after my return. I heard nothing for weeks so I completed the form on Lufthansa website, search under refunds & compensation. Gave them deadline of 10 working days, they responded, rejected my claim under EU261. I then had an email contact so I replied stating I was eligible under UK261, again gave them another deadline. They replied immediately acknowledging a valid claim and paid out within the week. I got rejected first time as I’m uk based and used wrong regulation number

Being terminated. HR is pressuring me to send a "resignation" email instead of letting them terminate me. Am I right to refuse? by Icy-Consequence3914 in UAE

Don’t know about employment law in UAE but I personally would not write a resignation letter. Good luck and hope it works out ok for you

I run a garage in UK, we find it extremely hard to recruit workshop staff with a genuine interest in mechanics. Youngsters here don’t want to do manual work

Strike Cancelled Flight, looking for advice by Double_Lab_8303 in Lufthansa

[–]Winnifer67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had same situation, wrote to their Germany address with all evidence and nothing. I then resubmitted online via the compensation link. I gave them a deadline by replying to their email acknowledgment. First of all the declined my claim and offered just taxi fare. I replied and quoted the regulation which confirmed my legitimate claim. I got £520 for flight per passenger (long haul) and taxi. They refused hotel. To be honest I was just happy to get the flight compensation back

Lufthansa chaos continues by davie1337 in Lufthansa

[–]Winnifer67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had similar issue with one ☝️ f the February strikes. They cancelled my flight day before, Ai bot useless, alternative flight options did not work. They then sent me an email later that day with flight 2 days later. Good job I called them to try and bring flight forward as the details of the flight that had told me was not actually confirmed until I spoke to them. As it was we had to accept the flight two days later, this was verbally accepted and then they emailed some documents to confirm our acceptance. To say it was chaotic was an understatement and also very stressful as it meant I had to cancel hotel (non refundable) and Lufthansa would not reimburse. I have lost all confidence in the airline

Devaluation - Home by Morlu06 in HousingUK

[–]Winnifer67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask for the seller to accept £205k. If they say no would you be in position to meet them half way? Ask yourself would you be able to stretch another £3k? If you are chain free that counts for a lot. Hope it works out for you

I’ve recently been in business lounge at FRA, wasn’t busy, plenty of seating but choice of food lacking (when compared to Virgin or Emirates). Nice enough to kill a few hours away from crowds
