Now keep it safe: three things
  1. Keep your photos and files unedited. The receipt only matches the originals. Put them in an album such as “My records”.
  2. Save this receipt to your camera roll.

    Keep the receipt file too. The image is a handy copy; checking needs the file.

  3. Email it to yourself.Email it to myself

    Your mail app opens a draft. Attach your receipt image and receipt file. Don’t attach your photos or documents. Timevolt does not send it or know whether it was sent.

        How to keep notes that hold up

        Write notes as soon as you can. Keep the original account rather than replacing it later; the venue decides what weight it gets.

        1. Write it down straight away, on paper or in the box on a step.
        2. Put the date, time and place at the top, and who you spoke to.
        3. Use their words where you can; separate what you saw from what you were told.
        4. Sign or initial a paper note, photograph it and add the photo.
        5. Never edit an old note. Add a new dated entry when something changes. A device save time is not independent time evidence or proof of event order.

        Keep the agreed notice route and the employer’s response. A file date is separate from delivery and the effective end date.

        Keep the originals too. A changed or compressed copy has a different fingerprint.

        Keep the email that makes resignation final

        A worker sent a letter that made quitting depend on a condition, then an email making it final. A case report says the appeal panel used the later email as the job's end date. That kept the worker's claim in time.

        An email can fix the job's end date

        A worker said an email only signaled a plan to quit. A news report says the panel treated it as ending the job that day. It refused extra time for a claim filed about 30 days late.

        Keep resignation emails and replies together

        A teacher tried to take back a resignation sent by email. The employer had confirmed the end date, and the teacher did not object until later. The work panel let the resignation stand and rejected the claim that the worker had been fired.

        News report only; the tribunal decision was not checked.

        Proves / Doesn’t prove

        Proves

        A completed time receipt shows that the exact selected file existed by the independently witnessed time. You can check whether a later copy has the same bytes. It does not establish creation time, authorship, identity, event order, location or the truth of the contents.

        Doesn’t prove

        It does not prove the letter was delivered or read, who wrote it, that the employer accepted it, or what date the employment legally ended.

        This cannot establish receipt, reading, acceptance or when employment legally ended.

        These are the bounds of a completed proof. The local tester does not establish any time. The chosen court, scheme or regulator decides what to accept.

        Do I have to resign in writing?

        It depends on your contract and local law. In the UK the government page tells you to check your contract and tell your employer your last day. Writing is the safest habit.
