I understand from my colleague Rhys that he has now spoken to you and you thought you spoke to someone called Neil - unfortunately we don't have anyone on our sales team of that name. I understand that a template payslip has now been sent to you - if you need anything else or have any questions Rhys will be more than happy to help you

I don't remember the chaps name I'm afraid.
Looking at my records the number I called was 01206 713 680. I called at 8.55 but the reception was bad - theso called again from a land line shortly after.
The guy I spoke to said he had taken both of my calls.
I have called back this morning and repeated the request.
It's being sent "straight away"
So will wait and see.

ContractorUmbrella?
I called them this morning. Said I was considering joining but that I'd like to see a template payslip first. This was going to be emailed to me - 6 hours later and I'm still waiting....

It's fine though. This is the final nail in the coffin of my relationship with them. New contract next month - new umbrella.

Where does 6th June come from?

What I want to know is:
1) Has this date of 06/06/13 been decided by my umbrella company - or would they have had no choice at all and have been compelled by gov legislation to give me this 06/06/2013 date.
I have aksed the umbrella in question have been told that they had no choice in the matter. I find this hard to believe beause in terms of the dates I mention above the is no logical reason why I have been given the date 06/06/2013.
They say:
"We have, as allowed by law, postponed your automatic enrolment in to our Auto Enrolment pension scheme until 06/06/2013, also known as the 'deferral date'. However, if between now and then, you move from being paid monthly to being paid weekly, the deferral date will be 29/06/2013. From the 1st April 2013, you have the right to become a member of the Auto Enrolment pension scheme if you want to. "
I simply want to know who made the decision that my enrolment date had to be 06/06/2013 - because out of any day of the month this is the least convenient to me - and gives me the least chance of being able to avoid contributions.
Thanks
