I started my new job in August. I've been asking for my payslips every month. Got it this week. My first payslip is since September. On payslip is PAYE Tax -93.40 ... What does the negative means? And my NET PAY is £1542.04. And I have received £1271,80 on my account. So it's not right! Just don't understand what does it mean?! Did I overpaid my tax in previous job? Please help me. Thank you

Need to see how its written exactly, but negative normally means its a deduction from your pay where as a positive means adding to your takehome pay - tax is evidently normally a deduction.
Best bet is to speak to your manager or HR to have the payslip explained if you dont understand it0 -
Can't really tell with so little info. You would imagine you got a rebate with the -93.40 but mine always had the (R) not the minus sign and the net figure not matching what you received is a couple of hundred pounds difference. First call should be to your payroll office if you think a mistake has been made.0

It would appear it is a rebate in this case but you evidently need to speak to them given neither received monies matches the payslips0
