Blue Arrow

I worked for blue arrow during lockdown working in a supermarket i done 64 hrs night shift in a week and I wasn’t paid in full am still waiting for this paycheck and its been a month? Everytime i call i get the same excuse “ your hrs haven’t been confirmed “ how can it take a month for a store to confirm their hours

Complete waste of time.

the best recruitment agency in UK with sociable people, professional, and trustworthy people.. ..BLUE ARROW.. I strongly recommend to use their services! and a big thank to the person I dealt with best recruitment consultant of Burton Upon Trent!

I feel compelled to write this review after reading a review posted on 21st February 2018. The experience described in that review is exactly the same as mine. I attended the office on a Thursday with a general query about signing up for hospitality work. I met a consultant who I had a conversation with, who persuaded me he had plenty of work available and I should attend the next day with my documents and register. A time was fixed for this. Despite the lengthy conversations the previous day when I attended the following day the consultant could not recall who I was or what was said the previous day. Nevertheless I filled out the forms we had a reasonable chat and I was told I would be put on the system and start receiving offers of work forthwith. That’s the last I have heard.

I was told on the Friday I would receive a handbook. I didn’t. I emailed on the Friday a certificate asked for. No response. I emailed the following Monday asking if I needed to do anything else. No response. I emailed on Tuesday, no response. I went into the office on Wednesday, I was told the consultant was off ill that day. Fair enough. The person on the front desk acknowledged I was registered on their system though I had not been told and forwarded me the handbook. I emailed again today, asking where we go from here, you’ve guessed it, no response!!

Frankly this is an utter shambles. I’ve been registered, though not proactively informed, but for what? Nothing.

I’ve seen several responses on here from Blue arrow asking for full details to be sent to them through their central system. I’m happy to do that, but I suspect I won’t ever receive any offers of work if I do. Not that this bothers me greatly as I’ve heard nothing anyway.

Blue Arrow over to you.

I hope you are better at responding than your consultant in Birmingham who appears to have lost their keyboard.

Blue Arrow Newbury Office I found Staff there to be helpful, friendly and supporting. They listened to my preferred working routine and arranged employment assignments to match it and have never been cross if I refuse assignments. They have intervened to ensure a mix up would not result with my not getting paid and leave me messages when new opportunities are available. Its nice to hear what previous employers think of my time whilst me working with them and my Blue Arrow fed back to me comments that she was told about me and my work. I have always had a great working experience with Blue Arrow and look forward for this to continue.

greet people who get me top jobs - working all over london as a waiter in many greet places - will get my friends to sign also

What is the point of writing to the Customer Services Department at Blue Arrow. There are so many bad reviews that this suggests as a company Blue Arrow have no customer satisfaction interest. Candidates are seen as an inconvenience and can be treated so badly. Consultants lie constantly. When you ask to speak to the Consultants you are always told they are not in the office. Often this is not true as I’ve called from reception and could see the Consultant. Waited weeks and weeks for replies to email and telephone calls. Why do Consultants lie? Why do Branch Management allow this to continue?

I have experienced Blue Arrow for over 18 months and where at one time there were consultants who cared for an acted professionally can called you when they said they would and always rang you every week to check on availability when you informed them you have no credit on your mobile. Now there is a lack of communication and worse still is that they lose copies of ID documents and make you re attend and complete all the registration forms again.

The directors need to be looking into this as this is a series breach of legislation and date protection.

I work in a Hospice and most of the STAFF THEY SENT ARE RUBBISH !

THEY CAN NOT SPEAK ENGLISH ! ARE LAZY AND SPEND MOST OF THERE TIME HOOKED TO THERE MOBILES !

IF YOU ASK THE STAFF TO DO ANYTHING THEY SAY THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND AND CARRY ON TALKING ON THIER MOBILES !

RUBBISH SERVICE TO PATIENTS WHO ARE ILL AND THERE FAMILY..............

First of all I was given an assignment to start at 11pm until 8am but when I arrived as rotored nobody was there? I got my travel refunded from Blue arrow but obviously I was expecting a full days wage which I didn't get. To make this issue worse a member of staff at Blue arrow giving me a new assignment threatened me saying that "You better not mess about the person who gave you the previous assignment or else!" Wow hang on blue arrow just sent me to a cold dark place in the middle of nowhere and I didn't get home until 1:30am. This was absolutely disgusting behaviour for anyone to display and made me feel very uncomfortable and I still feel I do not want to communicate with that individual horrible person. It's worth noting that the site where nobody was working was robbed only two weeks before so not giving me the sense of felling safe. The job blue arrow gave m e this week is a joke because first of all they have the wrong postcode which meant I was late and secondly they got the shifts wrong again which meant the delivery vans had left and once again I got paid for four hours instead of 11 because that warehouse closes early on a Saturday. I am not on benefits and have had no work for 3 weeks from Blue arrow and the two days I desperately need to pay the rest of last months rent they can't even get that right!??? I also asked in person and over phone on Friday for them to email me next week's rota, it's Sunday now and I still don't have it.

in on 4 off 4 I get a call around dinner time I'm no longer needed so that was that but no its not as I still am owed my days pay that was still outstanding plus the day I got finished plus 20 hours holiday pay but ho no I got nothing no pay at all so be careful when working for blue arrow not to be trusted with you pay.

They just in it for numbers to please client.

No respect for employees , and communication is a joke.

They want everything from you , but get nothing in return.

Just someone to answer phone or acknowledge emails / voicemails etc would be a start, as can rarely talk to anyone.

The so-called site management team, won't commit to anything when asked , think to scared , but also lack.of understanding of languages Inc English in multi-lingual environment.

Don't pay full hours at induction , expect you to work shifts as dictated Inc finish at 1030pm then start at 630am next day
