Payday date?

Just curious when do you get paid?
I currently have two jobs with different paydays, neither of which are today. My previous job wouldn't have fallen today either.
I currently get paid 28th and then the last working day.

Yet justeat have email today about payday treats. This isn't the first time I've had this from a range of companies.
One company I worked for used to even do discount staff offers on "payday weekend" yet didn't pay its own employees until the Monday Confused

Am I exception? Or am I missing something?

I get paid on the last working day of the month but lots of companies pay on the last Friday of the month, hence the payday weekend things.

DH paid on 23rd or the Friday before if it falls on a weekend. I used to get paid on 18th.

skippy67 · 25/01/2019 17:44

Last working day for me. DH gets paid today!

BuffyFlanket · 25/01/2019 17:46

Last working day.

The ‘happy payday’ announcements and emails etc are stupid because surely these people know everyone gets paid in different cycles!

SoyDora · 25/01/2019 17:47

20th of the month.

Turquoisetamborine · 25/01/2019 17:48

My H gets paid today, I get paid last working day of the month.

Schmoobarb · 25/01/2019 17:48

The middle of the month! I love it. Especially in December and January!

PaintBySticker · 25/01/2019 17:48

Every 4 weeks (13 times a year) which means I never know when it’s going to be (I have a note in my work calendar, but it’s not easy to remember off the top of my head).

icantthinkofanotherone · 25/01/2019 17:51

I get paid after the end of the month. So usually the 1st, or the first working day after that.

Starlight90 · 25/01/2019 17:51

25th for me. Last working day for DH

whiteroseredrose · 25/01/2019 17:55

20th for me. End of month for DH.

NoPhelange · 25/01/2019 17:55

25th unless it's a holiday or weekend then it's the Friday before. DP last day of the month usually, but both last paid 21st Dec. It's been a long January! Never been so thrilled to check my bank this morning 😁

OurChristmasMiracle · 25/01/2019 17:56

20th

Although I used to be weekly pay so every Friday was payday.

SyrilSneer · 25/01/2019 17:58

Last Wednesday of the month. So the last few Januaries have been extremely looooong! Falls on the 30th this year 😫

Angie169 · 25/01/2019 18:19

I changed jobs recently and went from once a fortnight usually falling on the 1st and 15th depending on weekends . But now I am monthly getting paid on the 7th. That change over month was a hard one as my last pay was on the 15th .

ilovepixie · 25/01/2019 18:20

Every 4 weeks so today is payday!!

Kezzie200 · 25/01/2019 18:26

Husband last working day of month. Me 15th but mine is own business drawings so i choose mid month so we get a deposit every 15 days

Grandadwasthatyou · 25/01/2019 18:27

Ilovepixie...I have just started to get paid every 4 weeks. Taking into account that most bills and the mortgage are paid once a calendar month, and that we will be getting paid every 4 weeks, does this mean at some point we will have a month where we do not have any bills to pay?
If that makes sense!

Glitteryfrog · 25/01/2019 18:34

@Grandadwasthatyou yep! Magic No Bills month!

MissCalamity · 25/01/2019 18:35

The 21st of the month, which I quite like. They normally pay on the 18th for the December pay, so that's always good for a bit of last minute Xmas shopping.

Kaykay06 · 25/01/2019 18:36

Last wed of the month
But paid today as paid early in December thank goodness as was skint

Grandadwasthatyou · 25/01/2019 18:36

Glittery...how do I work out when that magic month will be?

DisposableNN · 25/01/2019 18:45

15th of the month for me.

C0untDucku1a · 25/01/2019 18:46

wendz86 · 25/01/2019 18:46
