A question about : Freebies on Deployment

Good morning all,

This is my first post on MSE so please go easy on me. I was wondering if anyone on here had previously wrote to or emailed any companies/brands that are renowned for being generous towards British forces units on deployments overseas?

For example, last year one of the lads onboard emailed Nando's asking for some food enhancers by the way of sauces etc. They duly obliged and were regularly sending us out boxes of it.

A question about : Redundancy

My husband is in this tranche. He is desperate for redundancy. He has applied for it. Am terrified he is not going to get it because he is going to be a grumpy Gonz if he doesn't.

Anyone else up for it?

A question about : Army won't pay?

My son in law joined the army in September 2000, and served until July 2014 when he left voluntarily. He tells me is entitled to a payment what is known in the army as twelve years money. I'm not sure what this money is, but I think it is half pension. Anyway, since leaving the army, they have been avoiding paying out this money. And today that told him he is not entitled to the payment as he falls short by a couple of months. He has been talking with them over the phone and they would not give any reason for not paying this money
