    The main point of this post and something I still feel, is that there should be something in place which requires employees to get prior notice to being reenrolled into a pension. Especially given a lot of people would rely on their full wage and having money taken out of it without warning could leave people short.
    So payroll says "your next pay you'll be enrolled in the pension scheme".  You say "I don't want to be cuz it's like a pay cut!" Payroll says "tough. it's the law" and enrolls you anyway.  

    Ok so you're forewarned so can maybe wiggle your money around so as to not bounce any DDs or whatever but I suspect that the overall difference is much less than people expect because they won't do all the calcs about how it changes tax, NI, etc.
