    Can you discretely get proof of the hours you have really worked - not just a notebook with your say so but something with confirmation? You could then report your employer for minimum wage violations and see if you could be kept anonymous.

    Hey, thanks for the responses guys. I have been keeping record of all the days I work and yet again today not only was I not paid for the 3 hours I wasn't paid and asked for last week but I was further underpaid by 8 hours. I'm so sick and tired if having to fight to get what I'm owed. I work too hard :-(

    Who would I report them to? Head office? If they're purposely withholding wages isnt this a matter of law?

    I'm on 6.28. The week before last I worked exceptionally hard over 6 days to covert a colleague on holiday. I worked 48 hrs. I was paid for 40 which drove my wage down to something like 5.20, so yeah. Well below main wage
    Report it to head office

    They will only pay you what your boss is putting you down for therefore have no idea he is short paying you at all

    Tell them the hours worked and what you have been paid.

    5) It's not just me, it's everyone. I think it's even a company wide thing. Everyone is missing hours, my colleague was missing 18 hrs from his last paycheck. At the moment no one other than me really seems to care, most don't even pick up their payslips every week.

    Bet you'll find theyre all massively on the rob which is why they aren't too bothered. Start not ringing about 40 quids worth of stuff through the till each shift, you'll soon find you don't care too much about the missing 30 minutes either.
