Usdaw Union Recensioni 225

Don't help at all I don't see the point in it don't waste your money there not in your side at all. Useless I thinking of cancelling.

I am surprised by the bad reviews, surely must be from people who screwed up then blame others. My thank you goes out to Milan, who always returns my calls and looks after me. Without his support I would definitely be unemployed now. Thank you USDAW :)

Useless. I have tried to get support and representation from this union and had none. They don't answer their phones, or reply to emails. I've been left feeling totally alone and unsupported. Don't waste your time, energy or money

AVOID AVOID AVOID...!!! BE WARNED they will take your money and not assist you LEGALY. I was told by the usdaw rep i have a strong case for legal representation (he gave me the form to complete) only to find the Legal team not wanting to assist ME Even with all the evidence that I had. USDAW will not fight your corner when it comes to expenses that my membership pays for. I talked to the legal manager Mr Darren Miller who called me a "A Lier" found him to be very unprofessional judgmental and NOT there to help or support me as a member for 3 years. I found him to be a BULLY and not wanting to talk to me trying to rush me off the phone call... Don't WASTE your Hard Earned Cash on this UNION that just wants your Money.

solded down the river by your local reps over meal breaks get 30 mins break yet we have queue up for 15 mins that gives us 15 mins to eat food

I had an heart attack at work. 6 weeks into my time off work still hadn't received any SSP. 3 times contacted my rep. Only advice offered was ring my employers despite telling him they were being unresponsive. 4 weeks back at work still owed SSP. I cancelled my subscription because lacking funds. Within 24hrs had email from usdaw. I explained situation. Next email told me how to reinstate direct debit. Seen another review that said save your money use C.A.B. instead. I concur. Milan Pavlick shame on you!

I have been represented by them before and they did an okay job. Looking forward, I will find another union to join as I feel that usdaw represent the larger companies whilst pretending to have the workers interests at heart. Reps are lazy and do the bare minimum they can get away with. I will say, if you have a genuine issue, usdaw will pull their finger out and do the minimum to assist you.

Useless. They do not want to get involved in anything. Would be more useful having a gold fish as these guys have not hot a clue

USELESS KEEP YOUR MONEY. Poor communication

Quite surprised with the bad reviews about Usdaw. I’m a member for over 2 years and Usdaw have always helped me everytime I needed. They take their time listening to our issues and giving the proper advise. It’s a well paid money.

Best Union ever. Thank you to the great staff(clerical and officials) in the Bristol office, you were amazing in helping me out and many others. Ignore all the bad reviews from folks who screwed up and instead of accepting the consequences for their mistakes, they blame the Union.

They don’t help at all don’t waste ur money

Called to speak about reclaiming unneeded holidays, was greeted by an unnecessarily rude woman who told me that it was pointless trying to get the holidays back because I won't need them for the rest of the year anyway and that I should just "buy some paint and get on with it". Defending the company because in difficult times they don't need pressure from staff, how about defending the staff who have risen to unrealistic levels of pressure from management and head office?. I would appreciate a polite "no" but this woman was just plain rude about the situation. Save your money and don't fall into this trap.

Save your money and don’t join USDAW, Morrison’s Kirkcaldy rep is worse than useless, he works night shift but more often than not is off sick (still posts on Facebook down the pub though), fed up trying to get hold of him even when he isn’t off, we have a Union Rep who leaves well before his official leaving time at 6 in the morning, not any good for us who normally start at 7, if by some miracle you can get hold of him about a H&S issue then he will do absolute zero which is what I wish I could give USDAW, the worst Union in Britain, biggest mistake I ever made was joining, USDW recommended we accept the 20p an hour pay rise! The Union is totally in the pocket of the Company. 20p an hour! By all accounts from the guys on night shift the rep is just as useless on night shift, useless, lazy and hopeless are the main words used to describe. DO NOT JOIN this union, save your money.

I am a rep but it did not stop me being discriminated against. Usdaw provided me with area support and all the knowledge I needed to make sure that I remained safe and secure in my job.
On another note, they are also (via the free legal service) handling a case for me. No matter what the outcome, I have the chance to tell my side of the story in a legal and concise manner with no costs to myself.

Excellent. Best thing ever did was join as a member now im a union rep. Everybody needs to join a union..

Thank you for recommending Slater and Gordon solicitors Jason Ngan who dealt with my case was extremely helpful and professional. I am extremely grateful I am a Usdaw member and have been for many years I never thought I would never need a solicitor but you never know what is round the corner
Once again thank you

My partner is a manager at a Morrisons supermarket which is in the process of restructuring management roles within its stores, these workers are being treated appallingly by Morrisons who are trying to force managers out of the roles on the cheap leaving many loyal workers worse off with a large reduction in hours and pay, Usdaw appear to be sat on their hands over this one, cannot understand why they have not orchestrated a media campaign to highlight the plight of the workers they represent, my partner has had zero help from this union, neither has anyone else and zero communication about what they are doing to help. Don't waste money with this lot they are ineffective as a Union.

SAVE YOUR MONEY DONT JOIN THIS SHOWER! THEY ONLY ACT IN THE INTERESTS OF TESCO!!!
After 20 years membership am leaving this USELESS ineffective union. They are there totally to protect Tesco, and their interests. Have given away all the benefits we used to have at Tesco, without a murmer. No more bonuses, free shares, double time on Sundays, time and a half overtime, fixed hour contracts, full time contracts, I can go on....
Am leaving before they fine me and throw me out for taking Tesco on. Reps totally pro Tesco, area organisers, pro Tesco...it would be joke, if it was funny.
Have always been pro unions, but this crowd is a special kind of special!

In process of cancelling membership. Union rep absolutely no help, practically threw me under a bus. I should have listened to work colleagues before I joined who advised me not to waste my money as they are in the company's pockets... Found this out the hard way. Horrible experience having to sit there and get ridiculed and shouted at by vile biased woman in HR as rep just sat there and said nothing at all. Workplace is an awful place, breeding den for bullies and liars and they are aware of this but I was made to feel in the wrong when I reported it. My mental health as well as my physical health is suffering because of all the problems. When I went to see union rep she was champing at the bit to be involved but when the meeting took place she was like a sheep and afraid to butt in even when I was being spoken to with contempt, completely useless. Thinking of writing an article on social media and local media to make others aware not to join this useless union. If you're being cajoled into joining USDAW by any rep at your work with promises of help and support... DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! Every review on here is scarily the same as mine so please take heed. USDAW is pointless. 😒
