41hrs - I reckon you will take home about £290, all depends on if you are in London or not and if you have deductions for coming out for extra leave/bike etc.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet

Just keep on walking down never ending streets

tax code would be helpful as well as married couples have a higher tax code and therefore greater allowance and therefore pay less tax.

I get 283.35 for 40 hours. So you should get about 290-292 pounds.

Outer London is £420-51 plus £20-60 del supp = £441-11
Inner London is roughly i think £20-ish more on the basic.

Let's not have 'another' kick of about London weighting. :nervous

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Oh no? Where I live ( in Sevenoaks District Council area & inside the M25 ) posties get Outer LW, where I work ( in SDC area & outside M25 ) posties get F.A. LW....or put another way 2 brothers, still both living with mum & dad, one working in Sevenoaks gets nowt & one working in Swanley gets LW....but that's ok, after all we all got the "winners & losers: lesson 101" earlier this year :crazy:

PS Neither brother feels guilty or bitter about getting / not getting LW
