Hello all
I was looking for a bit of advise - I got a call today from our HR head of department - local authority - who informed me that due to an 'error' my payment contributions toward my notional service buy back of almost 9 years - I have been contributing since Aug 2001 - has not increased with my payrise/increments and therefore I have arrears - the value was not given but will be fowarded in a letter to me later this week -
I first got a letter of offer from my HR section in 2001 stating the repayment figure spread over the next 31 years - the buy back was to bring me up to 40 years service - I was also given an one-off payment option at the time but opted for the fortnightly repayment figure - I still have this letter and this is what my payments has been based on for the last 8 years -
where do I stand ? is the error not a HR problem? do I have to pay back?
