ok, well in 6 - 8 weeks you will get your first pay packet ( yes it does take that long for RM to do their checks etc, stupid I know )

your basic take home at first will be around £240 a week, you will then get a slight pay rise at 6 months and 12 months ( where your take home will be around £275 )

the above are just educated guesses based on my take home but should be around those figures

depends on how long the background checks take - 4 weeks is not unheard of.
