At a guess, a year. Though someone here should know.

Do not use salary sacrifice for tech unless you absolutely need to, you may save a bit on NI, the tax saving will catch up with you at the end of the year and the items on offer are grossly overpriced. I was looking at a TV and could easily find it at half the price all over the place often with 0% finance

I was able to apply before I'd been there 6 months but as stated above it's all overpriced, and you'd still be paying it off when the item is obsolete.

+1, the tech is way overpriced, but the reloadable gift cards are a good way of saving money, supermarkets usually 5% saving so it adds up to a decent amount quite quickly.loyalsnail wrote: ↑12 Aug 2022, 09:30This.crazyshrew wrote: ↑08 Aug 2022, 08:54Do not use salary sacrifice for tech unless you absolutely need to, you may save a bit on NI, the tax saving will catch up with you at the end of the year and the items on offer are grossly overpriced.
