I’m having that trouble as well right now. My ETB aren’t paying me until the 28th or something, it’s shocking. When I rang payroll the guy I was speaking to used to work in social welfare. He said there’s a payment you can get from the government that’s meant to tide you over until you get paid in situations like this. I rang the social welfare and the woman is sending me out the form. Could work for you too

I don’t, he told me the wrong name than what it actually was. I just explained my situation saying I don’t get paid until the end of the month and needed a few bob until then, she knew straight away then what I was on about
