    How much are you earning per pay packet? And how often do you get paid?

    e.g. do you get paid £1000 a month or what?

    The idea is you pay 9% anything over £15k a year.

    So if you get paid monthly you pay 9% of what you earn over £1,250 a month.
    If you get paid weekly you pay 9% of everything over £288 a week.

    You can make extra repayments online if you wish.

    You do not have to make back repayments.

    Hi I was earning per week after tax I cleared about £400 each week. So I think I must be over the threshold and thats has been for 4 years. If I call them up now and say I want to start making repayments are they gonig to go mad at me for not paying them all this time and make me repay 4 yrs worth of payments? THanks for your help!
