    so based on the fact that it only mentions one week at the top of the payslip and the fact that the combined hours are lower than a full time job it is very likely that this looks like, and is being treated like a weekly pay. Does it not break down the hours by week - I guess it appears like you are only submitting a payslip every 2 weeks but there is a missing one in between. Once you have more payslips they will be able to see from the pay to date figures that there is not a payslip in between

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking, but if they're aware of it being a fortnightly pay, which they are, why are they treating it as a weekly pay? and no, it just says basic hours: 24, overtime: 10 or whatever less or extra I worked in that period. they're only asking for three though so would that be enough to prove that there isn't a payslip inbetween?
