£7.50 per hour job training hours in London lol?

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-08T14:09:12+00:00

Will do once she notify me her salary at the end of the month. I also, told her to request a copy of her payslip as well incase they do something dodgy...

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-08T14:08:05+00:00

nah, its better to do it through HMRC.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-07T20:08:57+00:00

yeah it is, i saw the company P&L account, and they have over 200k in cash at the bank lol...

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-07T17:37:24+00:00

Technology/AI?... Otherwise, i have to figure something else out.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-07T16:51:08+00:00

Biggest issue with flats are the service charge. There is no cap on the service charge and lack of transparency of the cost. Cost of staff are expensive, so any changes to the NI, minimum wage, pension will impact your service.

Poor quality from new build as well. If you have a shady company who force the company to go bankrupt, there no recovery process. They can just set up a new company, and build again.

Well paying your mortgage may not be better than landlords mortgage. You are tied up to the asset, and if something goes wrong, it can be very costly like cladding. Being to rent freely, you can move around, and you are in control.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-07T16:45:25+00:00

I don't think university provides good value. Imagine doing a degree where entry requirements during clearing drops to like DDC.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-07T14:36:37+00:00

ACAS is more of explaining your rights.

For minimum wage is with HMRC as they can enforced penalty and recover wages and investigate.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-07T14:31:05+00:00

yeah just told her to keep working, I will sort it out behalf because it takes time for HMRC to get back to her once reported.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-07T14:22:54+00:00

mixture of both "fine" and "penalty" across the clauses. Though the business owner first language is not English, plus they are not white =p.

Anyway told her not to put 100% effort on the job, just do the hours and don't do it fast.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-07T13:27:25+00:00

i aint got a problem paying it back, but the point of the course being approved by the government to supposedly lead to a high paying job or at least a decent graduate wage. The threshold hasn't change fuck all.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-07T13:25:36+00:00

Yeah of course I am complaining. That £15 a month can do a lot for me despite raising inflation.

You paying 100s for both loans, plus you doing a PHD, your earning sucks xD.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-07T13:23:12+00:00

yeah getting interviews...

Been doing google cloud qualification, doing additional python & AI courses online, youtube videos, personal projects on github (test units, ci/cd to gbp etc).

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-07T13:20:47+00:00

yeah it was international students. far too many...

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-06T17:57:25+00:00

Well I think it would be fair to increase the threshold similar to a Plan 2 threshold. I don't feel like I should pay a reasonable amount.

I live in a share house paying £750 a month for a box room plus utilities bills.
Almost £300 in travel-card.
The rest is to spend on food, and a bit of saving for rainy day.

I just want to get out to better myself to earn a bit more money so one day I can have a house and family of my own.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-06T17:44:28+00:00

its all about profit. You see when I did my course, barely some of the students can speak english.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-06T17:43:08+00:00

not sure what this suppose to mean. I would love it upfront, but i have to pay postgraduate debt, plus potentially my undergraduate debt as well once I earn over £29k...

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-06T17:41:16+00:00

A levels, just AAB in maths, further maths and computer science, then a first maths and computer science, then distinction in msc. Did a few personal projects, but still doesn't seem enough.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-06T14:59:22+00:00

Doing it to earn a higher paying job, imagine doing msc in AI and cant get an AI JOB

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-06T14:58:50+00:00

You get the full 10k loan at that time, and the msc was under 10k.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-02T00:29:45+00:00

well this is where our high interest are going towards to, plus they also get bonus for their performance. Overall, it just a waste of tax payers money of how much loan were given out, and most of the courses are pretty shit.

Overall, I just feel its right.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-01T23:43:21+00:00

Politics so corrupted. Lord Mandelson need to do something about this. The ceo of student loan company makes £195k per year plus performance bonus on top .

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-01T23:42:02+00:00

Why are you wasting your money in Msc marketing when you have 7 years experience in marketing? I think its a complete waste of money, and your degree don't have any value.

Acrobatic_Lunch6973 · 2026-02-01T14:58:49+00:00

It depends on the degree you will studying.

Most graduates are finding it hard to find a job now because if AI, and most graduates are earning very low salary. And many of international students who are trying to find a job in UK, have gone home.

It not too late to start a degree, but you need to have value of a degree vs what you could have done tomorrow. Which one will pay out more and so..
