If I left previous employment on excellent terms to accept a promotion and higher pay with another co, and now am unhappy with new job, is it ok to ask to be rehired. Previous co was very nice when I left, offered higher pay and also a promotion. But, I decided to go with the new offer. How should I approach my previous employer about applying for rehire?

Be upfront and honest with them. Explain why you took the previous job and why you are wanting to go back to work for them.
I have had employees leave me for more money....and some I have hired back.

Do you still have contact with anyone from your former companies HR department or your former boss? If you do I would suggest writing them an email or calling and just look into if your old position is open or if there are any other positions you could fill.
You could also just send over your resume. If it wasn't too long since you left and the same staff is still in place more then likely you will get noticed and get first consideration for a position. If you have had previous experience with the company and left on good terms its usually pretty easy to get back in and much easier for the company in most cases.

Just go back and tell them that you made a mistake. I would do it now before they hire someone to replace you. Good luck.
