    Looks like a bit over a month's pay, 2 months of tax allowances and a few deductions such as NI. At a guess. Is this your first job this tax year?

    I started on the 26th April, pay day is on the 21st, although still seems like too much!

    There is your answer then! You have been paid for the last week in April and the whole of May.

    Your take-home monthly will normally be £1367.85 (presuming a standard tax code)
