Last month I had £500 deducted for student loan, despite paying off my loan in 2020. Payroll admitted they ticked a wrong box but won’t correct it without SLC confirming I’m paid up. Cue hours of phone calls to sort out & beg for a refund. This month they’ve deducted £600. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Congrats to BOTP, @BOrthoNet and especially course organiser @humerus_af on running a successful ST3 interview course (for the 5th year in a row!). The best attendance that we have had yet - and really great candidates. Hopefully we’ll see some of them joining BOTP in August🤞🏻
