When people talk of a pay review, they mean the cost of living increase. It's the same thing.
When someone in the company reaches the top of their pay band they would only get the union negotiated pay increase anyway. The Union would usually negotiate a 3 year pay deal (say 9% increase spread over 3 years for example).
It sounds from what you're saying that they've done away with a pay band, so your pay is a set amount from the day you start and all you get is the pay rise that the union agree that everyone in the company gets. That's a shame if true, I'll look into it.
