Yvette Sports company info. Jo Good doesn't mention if you want to return unwanted items you must post it to the US at your own cost.

Unless she is ‘staff’ she won’t have a BBC pension. It would be up to her to take out her own private pension. She’s been there over 20 years.Can someone explain to me why Jo keeps going on about not having a pension? What kind of contract is she on at the BBC, hasn't she been there a long time?
You can see how gullible her followers are when they say they are happy to look at whatever ads she puts on as they trust her! I do hope someone alerts her YT followers to this thread. And I hope Yvette Sports buyers get in touch with her directly when they realise they have to pay £25 to post back items that don't fit to the US.Agree with everything you have said @VeeJayBee - she’s brazening it out. A few people saying they trust her to recommend things as she or because she uses them! I doubt she uses any of the crap at the Cherryz website that she was sent. Of course she’s going to say she uses their stuff.
That cellulite treatment (Ad) was bizarre and inappropriate. Thankful, there were lots of dissenters commenting.
The soup making was somewhat funny. Why would she cram all those ingredients in to such a small saucepan? The huge hunks of onion chopped with what looked like a bread knife were bizarre. No recipe was given or credited to anyone.
So is that because she wants to be 'freelance' and is contracted that way or is this really common at the BBC? Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question it just seems crazy to me that she has been working for the same organisation for so long but isn't on their pension plan. Obviously Jo isn't responsible enough to have her own pension - she's too busy buying Stella McCartney every time she gets her royalty cheque.Unless she is ‘staff’ she won’t have a BBC pension.

I can't be bothered with her ditsy act, you're 65 for goodness sake stop acting like a teenager! She thinks it's funny and endearing, personally I think it's quite sad.She does all those bumbling ditsy things like cooking in a too-small pan on purpose to prompt engagement, she knows the followers will send little messages like " Oh Jo! You're so crazy - why don't you get new pan LOL!! Just like when she made a vlog about her flat flooding when it was obvious her washing machine door was jammed with a stuck pink garment.
I found it so patronising during the blue coat begging scene when she was saying that she has to pay Felipe, while he is standing there, how could she?
Even if she is self employed she should've been making her own NI contributions meaning she will receive the state pension if she's paid in long enough. If she hasn't it's her bad luck. She will find it hard to live in Marylebone and buy designer gear on £150 pw though so better get shilling on YouTube.Unless she is ‘staff’ she won’t have a BBC pension.

Of course. She brought this up as a topic for discussion ages ago and people told her to call the DWP to find out her pension forecast. She will be entitled to one when she turns 66.Even if she is self employed she should've been making her own NI contributions meaning she will receive the state pension if she's paid in long enough.

I agree with you about older women not being left behind, I liked this fact when she started out vloggin 2 years ago and I would enjoy seeing what she was doing. But she should get on board with they way things are done to maintain one's credibility, if she's really in this for the long game for her future security she's shooting herself in the foot, she's devaluing her brand by hooking up with such flaky companies and being so laissez faire with the responsibility of being an advertiser. I do wonder who is advising her or steering her SM career, it seems she would do well to pay attention to what is being said here.It's a shame- it would be good to have more women her age on youtube vlogging/ going about their lives etc. Especially those from her era who were mainly dropped from tv etc after a certain age.
I'd imagine £60 - 80k pa. It's just a guess, she's never appeared on the list of BBC earnings, it's only £150K + that make that list.Out of curiosity, how much do we think she makes from the BBC? Any idea?
I'm sure she's not as ditzy as she makes out. Research is part of her job and she'll be well aware of what pension she's entitled to. As a free lancer she probably gets a higher rate than staff, and she owns at least 2 other residences that are rented out so....she's never going to be skint!It’s very common for presenters to be freelance, but it’s not impossible for one to be made staff. If that was the case then she would have been given a staff job years ago, not now.

I am not really sure she undertakes much research, she would consider herself the talent and as a creative I suspect she'd leave dreary tasks like factchecking to the researchers. She doesn't even seem to have much general knowledge to draw upon.I'm sure she's not as ditzy as she makes out. Research is part of her job and she'll be well aware of what pension she's entitled to.
