Re: Halfords Cycle to Work Scheme
I have just applied for a cycle to work only for my manager to now say that we are no longer allowed to park our bikes in the yard. Health and saftey reasons apparantly !!! there has been no issuses and no accidents in our yard so why stop them. we were told to park them in the local multi story car park where the local junkies hang out !!
Is thiws the case in other offices !!!! you think they would incourage cycling but not in inverness !!!!!!

Re: Halfords Cycle to Work Scheme

Mine is the same, but its deff coming out its just not in the info bit, like it used to be.BettySwollocks wrote:it showed as a deduction on my last bike,
my latest which i got in december hasn't shown yet.
Best thing happened to me the last time they wrote to me about the £30 disposal fee was to come out on such a date. It didnt and that was two years ago!

Cycle2Work Scheme
Just a quick question. Once you apply on line for your C2W info to be sent out how long is the process till you recieve your LOC & how long do Halfords hold your bike for.?? Many thanks.....

Re: Cycle2Work Scheme
Mate at work applied about a week later the paper work came through, he signed it and sent it back, they then wait a week for a cooling off period before emailing a collection voucher for you to print out and take to halfords, Halfords then took a week to get the bike in stock, so it took three weeks altogether.ma69rk0 wrote:Just a quick question.

Re: Cycle2Work Scheme
i wouldn't touch halfords with a barge pole.
worst after sales service i have ever experienced in my life.
be warned!
find out if you can use the c2w LOC at another local shop.

Re: Cycle2Work Scheme
Can't recommend Halfords highly enough. Spent £313 on bike and gear, which is going to cost me £190 over 78 weeks at £2 p/w net(plus £35 disposal charge)

Re: Cycle2Work Scheme
I filled it all in online about 4months ago and haven't recieved any letter yet, so it's about a >4 month wait, with a 6month cooling off period.

Re: Cycle2Work Scheme
Leisure lakes bikes are a dedicated cycle store, so have a greater selection,
so u should get more for your money,
they were accepting the Halfords voucher when i got my first bike approx 2 1/2 years ago.
