Being Paid

skyblue1919

Hi,

I've been in my current job for 2 months, I didn't get paid on payday for my first pay as they had my bank details wrong, they corrected this and sorted it straight away. However I also haven't been paid today on my second payday either but they have the correct details now. I was just wondering if it will take a few days (I thought it would go in at midnight) and how long should I leave it before I query it with finance?

I'd query it yesterday to be honest, them not paying me for 2 months, I would be downing tools

It depends on what type of payment they have used & also how long your bank takes to process it. Some employees here get their pay at 8am & some payments arrive with others at midday.

Also may be worth checking with payroll that they updated your bank details on their software as they may have made a manual payment with your new details but didn't update your details on the software.

Could arrive at anytime in your bank account today. There's no logic in which the order things are processed.

Two months in a row they have not paid OP as per their contract....
Payment being paid late is not acceptable

Given OP gave the wrong bank details for the 1st payment. Then you can't blame the employer for that 🤦‍♀️

Given that the first instance was the OP's fault you can't say 2 two months in a row....

My money is that Payroll made a manual payment last month following rejected payment & they haven't updated the payroll record.

I don't think we can state that as fact - to me OP's implication was that the employer's payroll team made the error when entering the details, but it's not clear cut either way:

OP said they had it wrong, not that he gave it to them wrong 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Hasn't been confirmed as being paid late though. Banks are still processing BACS runs for today.  Often well in the afternoon.
