Applied for a job which was a step up, seemed like a good company to work for and so on. Went through all the checks, DBS, references, gave my 5 weeks notice in my old job and got a start date. Had an offer letter, contract was given to me on day 2 of the job (today)
About an hour before I got it HR advised me of an 'error' that my salary was actually X amount lower than what was advertised on TES, but said 'oh but it's only about £15 a month less after tax'
I can live with that so I said ok no problem. Then I checked later and it's more like £140 a month less, which is a lot for me as I'm still living month-to-month and trying to build up savings.
However when they gave me the contract it demonstrated the same amount as what they originally displayed on TES. I signed it, I should've disputed it really. So was the 'new' pay actually correct or did they forget to update the contract? (They'd told me they'd put the revised pay on the contract)
I'm unsure whether to look for another job as I don't think it's good enough to reveal a new salary after I've started. I'm going to speak to ACAS, I know I've also maybe messed up here I just panicked on the spot.
