    31st December isn't a bank holiday, unless your bank pay it early because of the weekend then expect it to be paid as normal. Seems perfectly normal for payments due on 1st January to be paid 1 day early, as that's a bank holiday.
  • Thanks , they arent paying them one day early though which hense my confusion from what i can work out the people due on the
    31st will still be paid the 31st ?
    but the people due the 1st will be paid the 24th

    was just hoping we all got paid the 24th lol
  • Yes that families online seems to say just on the 31st urgh lol really could have done with that worry worry worry x
