Yamamomo - Tips & Service charge


murt

Recommended Posts

Hi


No doubt people are aware of the issue of restaurants withholding service charges and tips from waiting and kitchen staff which has recently been in the press. This is something I consider completely unacceptable and dishonest. If I am happy to pay a tip, whether it is included as a service charge or as cash, I expect it to be paid in full to the staff, and not go to the management or increase the company's profits


Having said the above, and following a recent visit when the food and service was excellent, it is my understanding that Yamamomo do not pass on all, or possibly any, of the service charge or cash tips to their staff. If people feel the same way as I do, I suggest that if they go to Yamamomo - which I recommend - they should ask the manager what their policy is in this regard. With any luck, a bit of pressure from customers may get them to change their policy and treat their staff and customers with the respect they deserve.


I have emailed the company a couple of times on what their policy is on this, but they chose not to reply

    • Atanas did a brilliant job on my bathroom renovation. Nothing was too much trouble and they were clean and tidy. Highly recommend.
    • If we accept what the OP has written, and it does seem credible, the father did not respond to the incident appropriately. His child was out of his line of sight when the OP was hit from behind by the child on a bike. Many of us, having been startled like this, might express some displeasure. Rather than a sincere and concerned apology, it sounds as though the father instead attempted to paint the OP as the problem, even laughing at them. I don't know what kind of message that would send to his child but doubt it is a good one. 
    • I’m in exactly the same position.  They badgered me for ages to have a water meter fitted.  I’d prevaricated simply because it’s so tedious dealing with these people but eventually gave in when the communications became increasingly frequent and aggressive and it was done in March 2023. I just assumed I’d then be charged on actual consumption but I received an email this morning with details of the latest price increase and it said, “Since your property doesn’t have a water meter, your bill is calculated in advance based on fixed rates rather than water usage”.  I’m sure they’ve realised I’d be paying much less if they billed me on actual consumption but have not gone out of their way to inform me.  Trawling through their website, for me anyway, is an unutterably tedious chore, but I think I’ll now have to work up the energy over the weekend to pick up the phone on Monday morning and have a word with them.
