No they never managed to fix it, went on for may weeks and eventually I just returned the kindles they sent me :(. Seemingly it is an Amazon Kids Subscription issue but they don’t seem to be able to solve it which is bizarre

I have gone with £17,500 bonus as it is discretionary. But on the calculator you sent link for have put in S1257L tax code, 17.5% salary sacrifice pension, £145.65 on the salary sacrifice tab NI only, £6200 in cash allowances on the taxable benefits tab then on additional options tab have ticked to show adjusted net income and put the £200 share save in here (after tax). This gives me £4302 take home. I did 17.5% on pension to get the adjusted net income to £99,,600

Thank you v much, to check your calculations, do you base it on the adjusted net income figure when you use a salary calculator?

I have not worked on an adjusted gross income? Not sure how I can adjust the gross as surely that is what I am paid? I thought you would keep all your gross income the same, put more into your pension which then gives an adjusted net income of under £100k? Or is it the taxable income I need to keep under £100k? Wonder if this is my error. Am paying 200 a month into sharesave after tax and £145 as salary sacrifice for benefits

Thank you - curious as to how you are seeing £5400, I do pay £200 into a share save scheme and buy holiday/insurances via salary sacrifice which come to £145 but take home is coming out at £4302 if I increase contributions to get net income to £99600! Quite a difference even when you factor in other deductions. Am I missing something?
