Legal advice .. consent to access my Bank Account!
Discussion
I am leaving the Company in the not too distant future and according to HR, i have to fill in form which allows them to take money from my Bank Account in case they need to claim back any overpayments(?).
Naturally, i have refused as i don't want to give irrevocable access to my wonga and no company has ever asked for this facility before .. even my last employer trusted me to give back part of my bonus and would not accept it as a deduction from my salary i.e. i ended up writing them a cheque on the day i left!
What do the PH legal bods think of this? My current plan is delay stuff till my last working date and then if nothing is owed (which it shouldn't be) then it won't matter a jot. Sometimes i just despair at corporate idiocy

^Thanks for that bit of advice!
Ok, a nice person from HR has rang me up. I have stated that i am not going to sign any paperwork which enables debits from my bank account. I completely understand that they can chase me for any overpayments and i will not hesistate to pay back any such payments - future references and credit history for a start! She told me it was part of procedure etc. and it's on my file etc. - and i gave the reciprocal example above as to why i will not sign anything and if they want to record this lack of signature on a file then so be it .. :shrugs:
