Why will she get paid on the 9th of August? Is that the next payroll date that her new employers have told her?

No, its 4 weeks after her starts date.

If she starts on the 9th July, then 4 weeks later would be the 6th August.

Also, I doubt any company would pay staff based on their individual start date, it would be a payroll nightmare! They most likely put payroll through every 4 weeks from payroll to payroll, so everyone will get paid on the same date, not on different dates. I suggest she finds out when their next payroll date is.

Friends I know that get paid 4 weekly - they have two bank accounts - one where their salary or wages are paid and a everyday one.

What they do is when they get paid is to work out what dds are coming out over the next 28 days. Then round up the cost of the dd to the next £10, keep that in the bank account and transfer the rest into another account for them to do whatever they like without the worry of having enough money to pay a large dd 20 days after getting paid. Its also best to scatter the dds across the month. Some you may have no choice like the council tax and tv licence.

As they get paid 13 times a year and direct debits come out every month - they miss out on a dd every payday.

One of my friends and her partner who get paid 4 weekly has got a sympathetic LL. She pays by standing order and instead of £520 pcm, they have it set up at £480 every 4 weeks. Though the LL only has 4 properties on portfolio.

Most employers have a cut off date with payment. Its normally 7-10 days before pay day. So I have been in the situation when I started a new job that I had to wait 1 month and 9 days before I got my first pay as I started the day after the cut off date.

I totally get that. If you read the posts, you will see that the assumption of payday being the 9th of August is due to it being 4 weeks (wrongly) after she starts, not based on the company's actual next payroll date.

Her training is on 9th, she starts work on 12th.

She gets paid 4 weeks after she starts work, first on 9th Aug, we've double checked this.
