Army deducted £500 from tour bonus

OP,
Its good to see that the "COMP A" system works as advertised, and its nice that you report back that the system worked this time.
I do however feel that this thread has run its course though.

As far as I am aware, any medical, compassionate leave etc is not taken from your op bonus. Think he should check that out.
I have seen many lads in and out of afghan due to whatever and not completing full tours and have always got full op bonus for the whole tour. It wasn't his fault he was taken away.
As for op bonus stopping when inbound to bloodhound. That's also wrong. The RAF get op bonus whilst on decomp. Navy and Army do not.
I'd definitely get him to check that out. Seems different services get different pay patterns.
I can guarantee to you that the RAF do not get op allowance whilst at decomp.
Whilst I was away this tour we had a couple of lads go home for compassionate reason and their op allowance was also stopped but started again when they got back to theatre.
Thanks
