Both questions have been asked and answered and can be found using the search facility.

However the answers are.

1. Pay date 20 Dec for the Christmas Bonus - £200

2. Pay Deal has not been announced so as yet there is no back pay, and there is no guarantee of getting it either.

Surely getting the back pay should be a 'given'.

The pay deal is dated from 1 April this year whatever the rise turns out to be.

nope, the pay deal is dated from what ever agreement is reached on its implementation date, there is not necessarily an agreement to back date it to April
