Had the very unfortunate pleasure to work for this company, on joining told them i was a heart patient.

I got to crew and walked 1 mile to the repair shop were i was given the keys the car was in a bad state so inspection took longer I fuel the vehicle by 2.41pm and had to travel down to Milton Keynes at this time i had had no food or break still. I called in to my planner and said the sat nav is saying i will be at drop point at 5pm however their is traffic on motorway and warned him I will not be able to make it for the pickup from other site by 5pm. He said carry on and he will try pull car out of site for me. I called in at my drop and pickup sites and they said we will only be here till 5.30pm. I some how managed to drop my car i was driving to the drop site and tried to get a taxi to the other location their was no availability. So i decided to walk through the country roads hoping my planer had managed to get the vehicle.
As i was struggling to walk after 2 miles i was still calling the office to where the car was i was told the team leader was going to come pick me up and take me to the car. I got picked up at 5.34pm by the kind team leader of the collection company i got a call off my planer at 5.37pm who told me they arranged to get someone to pick me up and take me home as they could not get car out, i then informed him i managed to sort things out and was on my way to get car as i was with team leader who was going to unlock the gates and get vehicle out for me.

On arrival i got the car and thanked the team leader as i went to appraise the car the job was taken out my app i then had to phone out of hours and get job put back on my app this took some time. I got home safely after 9.30pm and had to take this car from Birmingham to Bradford the following day for 8.30am.



I told him if i was not given a lift by my wife iN the morning to my second job i would not been able to drop my car in Milton Keynes never mind picking up carry over car.

I told him that if this is what Dmn is about i would not continue.

Result planer was sent for retraining but company stands on not giving expenses for jobs you are forced to take expensive travel on so i will be handing my plates in on Monday this decision was made by a director.

Being a heart patient i later found i would have been stuck in the fields for hours as their was not any close company drivers to pick me up no food no water cell phones with low battery no road lighting and no pavement on roads as it was a country road absolutely shocking how drivers are treated by logistics companies.
