Like everyone nowadays. gone are the days you could be paid in cash. But you are still meant to be given a payslip around the time they transfer the money over.

Sleepy - I agree with you it is a legal requirement to provide a payslip in one form or another; electronic payslips are ecoming more popular as they can be printed off as required by the employees and it saves a lot of money on paper, sealing and postage.

Some places pay you after two weeks, so if you do 30 hours of work this week, then 2 weeks later 15 hours, you will get paid for 30 hours not 15, the 15 hours worth of pay will come in two weeks.

Did you work a lot two weeks ago? Did they forgot to pay you and included two week's wages in one week? Go talk to the manager, £100 is not worth the hassle.

You could always give some to this guy I'm sure he'd appreciate it

I was hideously overpaid when i left Yates's about 4 years ago. Oddly it wasn't the number of hours they got wrong but rather the rate of pay per hour on holiday owed. I have to confess I didn't go in and admit, in fact i was so worried about drawing attention to the fact that I got one of my mates who was working there to slyly bring my payslip home.

I kept the money untouched in my account for a month in case they asked for it back but I'm ashamed to say i took the greedy route and didn't actually bring it to their attention.

4 years on my only regret is that I was only on a 12 hour contract, if i'd been on fulltime i'd have been living on my own private island right now.

illegal BTW, you should get a payslip with your pay.

You don't need anything physical iirc, just some form of document be it electronic or paper.

Hey all,

Just to let you know it was the holiday pay for the end of the financial year.

Make them... its not difficult i worked for wetherspoons as a manger. Likely hood is that your manager may have given you your holiday pay because there is a time of year (now i believe) that it will be cancelled if you dont use it up!

that happened to me once

i got an extra £300 once and didn't know why
it turned out to be my holiday pay
