Coronation , as a fully paid up CWU rep. I can guarantee you , your silly naive plan , aint going to happen.
Your (and mine as well) beloved Divi will go first , trust me.
Coronation if you are on the BT pay negotiation team , you will be toast, with that attitude
You take the pain , not us people that create the wealth, you lazy sloth
The old duffer got exactly what he deserved , brought it on himself. I stopped commenting on here about a year ago , because of that oaf. Im sure he called himself HandyMandy back then. He dragged everything down to the gutter , his dubious claims and boasts were pitiful. Im sure he once told everyone he owned about £300 of BT shares. He was away with the fairies.

Dear colleagues,
Today, I’m pleased to confirm that we will be increasing the salary of every UK colleague who currently earns £50,000 or less by £1500 from 1 January 2023.
We announced our intention to do this at the end of last month, but it was important to agree this with both of our unions who represent many of the people who will benefit from this pay rise. We now have that confirmation from the CWU and Prospect.
The Cost of Living pay rise:
• Helps as many people as we can. This payment reaches 100% of our UK Team Members, and over half of our UK managers. In total, 85% of our UK colleagues.
• Focuses on colleagues earning £50k or less. The £1500 payment means a 7% increase for those on lower salaries, through to 3% for those on the higher end.
• Is a salary increase rather than a one-off payment. That means our people will benefit from a fully pensionable increase every month.
• Is competitive. Just as our April pay rise was industry-leading, our Cost of Living Pay Rise coupled with our 2022 pay rise earlier this year means we are still industry-leading.
• Is supported by our unions. Both of our union partners support this payment, and the concluded ballots with their members support this too.
The payment will be pro-rated for our part-time colleagues. For more details and eligibility, please see the FAQs.
2023 pay review
The 2023 pay review will be effective from 1 September 2023. In the lead up to this, and as we do every year, we will review the financial performance of the Group, the economic environment and market pay increase norms. The £1500 increase will be taken into account in these calculations and will form part of the 2023 pay review.
Eligible managers will still get a bonus in June, subject to the usual performance criteria.
Union partnerships
As part of our conversations with the CWU over the past few months, we have both agreed to strengthen our ways of working to help BT Group move forward. Together with the existing partnership agreement with Prospect, we have agreed with both our union partners that we will all lean into the opportunities and challenges the future will bring, specifically our transformation plans and the delivery of the £3bn cost savings by the end of FY25. Ultimately, we all want BT Group to be successful so that we can do the best by our people for years to come.
For those of you working over the festive period – thank you. I hope you all get some time with your loved ones.
Philip
