The low SMP payments suggest the former. The only way you can get this
corrected is to ask that the employer is seen by Employer Complaiance

at this but they would only look at gross wages, whereas EC will lok at
Wages, deductions and statutory payments.
But one you establish that you are getting minimum wage as your gross pay,
then any overpayment in tax can be refunded.
Which should be automatic if the employer has sent in returns. If they
haven't, then each employee should take their P60's to the tax office.
This should get the tax checked and make sure that they have ben
credited with the NI on their account.
There only seems to be a problem in the last four months.
Seems so Peter, a quick word with the wages dept should normally sort
this out, but something of the OP post suggested that this was a bit
more than that. However, the OP did not provide further info, they can
always post again if they dont get anywhere.-

On a similar topic, my wife had two friends who were Polish and worked
in this country before the recent invasion. They wanted to claim tax
back but when they showed me their payslips there were deductions but
they weren't described as tax and NI. I sent the payslips to HMRC but
they lost them and although I had made a note of the details on the
payslips I didn't copy the payslips. I think the employer was
conducting a fiddle but HMRC don't seem too bothered. How's the best
way to get this sorted out? I have used the phone lines where you
report these kinds of crime in the past but they don't tell you what
they find out.


The trouble is you are a thrid party in these circumstances and it is VERY unlikely that HMRC would give any feedback.

Its a shame you didn't keep copies, I might have liked to have taken a look myself, I am always interested in seeing what sort of things are out there.

Not much I can do at present, I had a new hip three weeks ago and still have another 4 weeks before I get a sniff of going back.
