Thanks I agree, also North London, been talking with a lawyer today, they have been through similar and hes going to put something together for us to see by 2moro. quickly though we must stick together, remember we are in a strong position as we "provide" and BUPA need us. We can decide to decline the invite to tender in order to negociate more favourable conditions . We must not be pressured by fear of being left out, rushed by their imposed timescales and being weakened by competing with each other, for what? who can undervalue themselves the most! We'll be a long time stuck with the consequences.....
