Iv'e read the post from 2010 regarding this site siu.org.co.uk are the thoughts still the same with this site. just something that has come up in chat with some of the lads, one mentioned them.

Are they genuine or is it still dodgy business?

Thought please peeps

Many thanks

I signed upto them around christmas 2011, payed the fees, never received anything I was promised so I called them up a week later, they told me that a members pack was in the post but they would send another one anyway. Three months later and still paying a monthly membership no membership pack, again I called them up and was told it had been sent out and if I wanted to cancel I could but I would not get a refund.

so from this, yes they are still a dodgy business.
 
It's a commercial enterprise.
Not a Union.
They misrepresented themselves as a union initially.
They tried to threaten CPW and The NSWU - (a real union) with prosecution, lost or dropped both sets of nonsense.
Look at who runs them, their background and their track record.
Off the record comments from people I trust, gives me the impression that bullying and threatening attitudes that SIU has took so far is true to form of the people at the helm.
As regards false promises and talking themselves up towards saint hood, well if it were a job application, it wouldn't get past a CV Scrutiny.

Join a real union, one that is trying to make a difference, and not a profit.
