WAGE PAYMENT CHECKS
APPLICATION FORM?
Have you filled in and sent over our application form? This needs to be fully filled in, including the info regarding your bank account details (so we can make the electronic bank transfer). If you haven’t already, please ensure you also submit a recent photo so we can approve the form and offer you more opportunities too. You can do it all on line or post it over.P46 TAX FORM?
Have you completed your P46 tax form yet? This is a legal requirement from Her Majesty; and we are legally not allowed to pay you until we have this form returned. You need to download and print it off (or get one form your post office), sign and post back to us at our head office: Boring Tax Forms, Link Communication, Governor House, 47 Kent Road, Leeds. LS28 9BB.FEEDBACK AND PHOTOS?
After completing the work it is essential you send in your feedback and photos. Our clients are climbing the walls in anticipation to see the evidence of all your hard work. Without it, they won’t pay us, so we really need you to take photos, and upload them to us using our feedback form as soon as you get home. If we don’t receive them within 48 hours, we have to assume that the shift hasn’t been completed and we have to re-organise it at additional expense, so you won’t get paid or re-used.UPDATED DETAILS?
We need to know if you have changed your bank accounts, moved house, changed either your email or postal addresses. If we only have your old payment details on file, that’s what we’ll end up using. We’re not mind readers; so please keep us up to date.
CLAIMING YOUR EXPENSES
We are happy to pay you for the pre-approved expenses which have been allocated for the activity; which you can show us that you have actually incurred.

There is a simple form which you need to fill in detailing and justifying the costs which you have incurred. This form is sent to you at the time of confirming your shift.RECEIPT SUBMISSION
We need to see proof that you have actually incurred the additional costs you have claimed for. Simply ensure you obtain and keep the receipts from your purchases (eg: travel cards, petrol receipts, parking, etc) and either post them back to us, or scan them in and email them over.CHECK THE AMOUNT
Providing your claim does not exceed the amount allocated on your confirmed work, your expenses will be processed and paid along with your wage. The limit is set to an agreed amount, which is ample to either cover or substantially contribute to your costs of getting to work. You can’t book a VIP limo to get to work, but we are often able to pay towards the bus fare!30 DAY MAX CUT OFF

Please note that after running promotional campaigns for 15 years now, we’ve heard it all and don’t believe any of it.EXPENSES SUBMISSION DATE
If the date of your activity falls after the monthly cut off date (the Friday before the final Friday of the month), they will be processed in the next monthly pay run. This allows us the opportunity to do all of the calculations and processing of the thousands of wage runs.WAGE PAYMENT QUERY?
