Posted - 14 August 2009 : 19:15:24 Hi there from a wet and windy Devon,
I am expecting a small cheque for about £220 to come from a refund of membership of a club (long boring story).
I want to do the honourable thing - what do I give to the OR - should I simply say I have a windfall and her is 50%?
I am not on any IPA or have anything to contribute as sadly, I am still not in work - advice and experiences welcome
A good weekend to one and all, Richard

If you have been discharged you don't have to advise the OR of any windfalls so you can spend it on whatever you want.

Posted - 14 August 2009 : 23:26:05 during our BR my wife recieved a bonus from work and my Grandmother died leaving me £1,000 in her will - as we do not have an IPA and do not want to jeapordise that fact we have handed both amounts over to the OR - just not worth not doing.
