    Anyone know if the NI allowance is still going to be paid out if the wage gets cut to 19k? If so after 22 weeks you would be getting roughly 25k a year, something that I don't think many would turn their noses up at. Definitely agree with Mop here though that Northern Ireland should not be subject to the same cuts or regulations placed on mainland forces, it is just not the same situation.

    Dutch you've lost me now my lovely!! How's it 25k if we start on 19k and NI Allowance is 3k. I'm no mathematical genius but that doesn't add up :P

    Nor am I :P lol but after the 22 weeks there's the raise to 22.5 or thereabouts so bung on the 3k and you've got 25! :) it said in that link that Desert posted, there's a raise straight after completing GV and then again after probation, same as it is now with the 23k situation.

    Cheers but no harm to you jammy sh*ts I'd rather be on the 25k after GV with the added 3k on top :P I guess it's a case of beggars can't be choosers. I think I'm going to shut up now cos me talking about getting a call and wondering what wage I'll be on is very much like I'm counting chickens and we all know how that can end :(

    I would imagine that those of us who applied on 130 campaign will be on the old payscales, if we're not, there will be hell to pay!

    So getting away from the sore topic of wages......any guesses on the next dates for calls. Am I right thinking it was about 4 weeks between the last set of calls instead of the 5 they had been doing.

    It could be longer between calls than it has been so far as there's a larger gap between the call and the start date this time around, probably due to the July holidays as someone suggested previously. If they're looking to give 5-6 weeks notice the second week of August could be a good bet. Fingers crossed for those still waiting :)

    If you're able to (and I know I found it difficult at times), try to put everything around the process out of your head. Too much unnecessary worry and stress otherwise.

    Lol I don't do drunk. I can't! Too square according to my sister. I just can't afford a 3 day hangover cos that's what I get now lol. Not a young thing anymore lol.

    On a more serious note I'm still debating if I should email vetting to see what the craic is.
