Taken on again different dept and tesco  started  3 weeks before the cut off date for payroll.  I work nights the work is hard as they are so short staffed .. 3 weeks after pay day I still haven't been paid .?? No number to call only a firm to fill .. I have chased this up constantly with my line managers who have been doing there best .. Payroll is a joke.. the work is hard . I have bills that won't get paid tomorrow.  3 weeks .. pay day is again next Friday.  They tell the country they are doing what they can during this time .. But there staff ?,? aren't being paid ..

    Should have started your own thread really.
    What is the issue getting put onto the payroll ?
    Any costs you incur with going into your overdraft, going overdrawn or missing DD's should be covered by the employer.
    Have you spoken to your store manager about it ? If you have whats his response ?
    Maybe inform whoever the bills are for they wont be paid.
