Hello all. Looking to consult some wiser heads than mine please. and for all, with thanks.
My problem is short (and probably the solution will be too: I think it's probably "tough luck")! My manager verbally promised me a pay rise from the date I took on a new role when a colleague left, saying we would sort the paperwork later and backdate my pay increase. As the months went on, whenever I asked her about it, she would tell me not to worry because whenever she got around to doing the paperwork, I'd get all the pay.
After six months, she then told me she'd spoken to HR and I'd have to apply formally for the job, which I promptly did and got it. The day I got it, she told me she wasn't going to pay me at the higher rate I'd been promised after all. It would have been about £1000 extra over the 6 months.
Here's the kicker: she did everything verbally. I haven't anything in writing as proof, only the fact that I took over a job two pay grades higher with no change in my pay for six months.
I'm stuffed, aren't I?
