My Company have told me the money I received on Furlough is my Statutory Redundancy Pay !

What reason did they give for not paying SRP? Also for the notice period were you paid your normal rate or the furlough rate?

The Redundancy Letter I received by email on 02/06/2020 said this:
We will continue to pay you until the 31st of July 2020:- 80% of your normal Salary based upon the previous two months furlough pay (less any required deductions for tax and National Insurance contributions) for both the months of June and July 2020. This amount will more than exceed any statutory redundancy package which would consist of statutory redundancy pay £1222.20, 2 weeks notice pay less deductions and no accrued holiday pay.

I was paid at the 80% Furlough rate at all times up until 31/07/2020 except when my Employer forced me to take 1 weeks Holiday in May and that week was paid at 100%.

I look forward to any advice you can give me.
Thank you so much

What they have done is make you redundant in June with 2 weeks notice but just pretended that it is end July

The key will be have they uses furlough funding to cover the costs 

This was 8 weeks net pay at 80% rather than 2 weeks net pay 100% + 2 weeks 100% gross  + holiday

How much more does it come too?

I think they are hoping as this is more than you would have got you won't kick up a fuss.

The Furlough Money is more than I would have got for SRP.

I am waiting to hear from my Union- I will put an update on here soon.

Redundancy isnt taxable is it, so you'd have got gross?  Is furlough pay taxed?

Sorry I am not sure if Redundancy is taxable or
not and I am not sure if furlough pay is taxed or not.
All I want is my Statutory Redundancy pay - it is not much really but with me it is more the principle of being paid this money rather than the amount.
Furlough Pay is Furlough Pay and it is NOT Statutory Redundancy Pay in my Book.
I am waiting for my Union to call me back before I contact my now ex-employer for my SRP.
