Made in error (underpaid the first time), as long as thats the total you were supposed to get, theres no problem.

One could be your wage the other travel expenses? Or something. That's my guess. :\

EDIT: or what sr4470 said

Perhaps they made an error on the first BACS transfer so the smaller payment was to correct it?

Congratulations on your first pay check by the way

If it's more then you were expecting speak to your accounting department.

allllec · 20 Dec 2007 at 12:24

Ah, that makes sense i suppose.. although i think they've overpaid me ! either that or ive worked more than i thought!

Glaucus · 20 Dec 2007 at 12:25

In that case phone up and ask. they can and will claim the money back. So if it's overpaid. better to sort it know. than to suddenly find you've gone over your limit.

if your working hours which you seem to be, i seriously recommend logging the hours you work in excel or similar! My job tried to con me out of 10 hours work! Bloody idiots, thought they could con a maths student out of money :rolleyes:

Do you have a payslip? You should. Just check the total paid into your account vs. the total on your payslip.

Chopper · 20 Dec 2007 at 16:18

being paid early cos of xmas? y work do a 3 week pay for december and a 5 week pay january so your pay gets a little fragmented/split up and you kinda get paid twice once early and once late.

Payslip matches up.

But.. its still too much. Works out as me working 86 hours in december which is just wrong. Meh ive left it in hands of my manager

So you get £3.93 an hour? How many hours did you actually work then?

Nah, £5.55, my refrence pay is £481 but obviously minus tax and shizz.

Have you done any overtime? Where i work, any overtime done after ~17th of each month is paid in the next months pay. It's a royal PITA sometimes!
