what time do you get paid on payday?

Hi,

I started a new job a few months ago, and I seem to be getting paid later each month. Twice its been past 10PM on the date I was due to be paid.

In my previous employment my wages were always in my account no later than 7am on payday.

I was just wondering what time everyone gets paid on payday?

Mine is usually paid first thing in the morning. Not sure of the actual time but I usually check first thing in the morning, maybe 9am(ish) and it is there in my bank.

I haven't checked the earliest possible time, but it's in my account by lunchtime.

I always check when I wake up and it's there.

When I was with Barclays I'd get paid the Saturday before (I get paid every 4 Mondays)

Thanks Everyone.

Previous employment it was always in my account first thing. Now with this employment it seems like I have to tell them ive not been paid every month.

Do you know who the company you work for banks with? If it's different from your own, then that can sometimes make a difference. Not sure why, but it can sometimes. I use to work for a company who banked with the same bank as I did. My wages would always hit my account the day before they were suppose to..I never complained One of my colleagues banked with a different bank and her wages would always hit her account the day after they were suppose to, we never found out why. Our boss found out and he soon had it fixed after having a "quiet" word with the bank in question that could be heard down the other end of the building which was impressive, even by his standards!

I remember when some of our employees had bank accounts with building societies, they always took a day longer to get their pay. The staff who had bank accounts with the same bank and branch as the company did get their pay as soon as the bacs hit the bank.

I don't think its a bank issue tbh.

When I tell them ive not been paid, they either sort it and its in my account straight away, or say they'll do it when they have time, but its pretty much in my account as soon as they do it. Its like they just forget.

Are you the only employee there or the only one with this problem? It could be the company are running short of cash.

Were only a small team.

Its just annoying I cant make plans on payday because I don't know when I get paid. Used to it being in my account when I wake up in my previous employment. They make me feel bad when I tell them I haven't been paid.
