Is this allowed?

Hi hopefully you can answer this for me. We were recently brought out by a larger company and they have decided to close our office down so redundancies have been given to 16 of us. No all of my colleagues have been given a finishing date of the 30th of April however I am the only one to have been told my last day is 5th of March. Is the acceptable or allowed?as I am feeling really low and victimised at the momen.and isolated with my colleagues.

I feel the reason they have done this is because if I was given a finishing date of 30th April then I would have racked up 5 years service instead of the 4 I am currently at. I really appreciate any advise you can give

It's not very fair I agree. Have they given you any reason, I know you feel it's because of your length of service, and you may be right, but what have they said?

By bringing your termination date so far forward have they actually given you your contractual notice?
