Have you thought about contacting your new employer to see what arrangements would be in terms of your December pay? Although you are starting late on in the month, they might not make you wait until end of January and then pay a month and a halfs salary. They may do weekly pay runs and add you to one of the December weekly pay runs to help out at a difficult time of the year. Worthwhile asking anyway!

Don't want to add any further difficulties - but do you know what the position is regarding holidays taken whilst you've been with your current employer? Have you taken more or less holidays than you are entitled to on a pro rata basis? If you've taken more - you might have to pay back money. If you've taken less than you're entitled to - they may be due to pay money to you.

Re the payment of pension contributions - don't know who your current employer is and how the scheme is administered, but wouldn't necessarily bank on it being paid that quickly.

Thanks for the advice

First off, just after writing this thread I realised I hadn't and should have contacted the new employer to see what the situation is about pay. I will do that tomorrow or Monday.

I have checked my holidays and I am owed 2 days and having pay for these. Only problem is my current employer - NHS divides monthly pay by 30 to work out daily amounts so it won't be great.

I have heard that I may not be able to get my hands on my pension that quick and its something I need to find out.
