just say yes and ask them to provide the paperwork!

Vouchers are given to parents instead of wages and so they don't pay tax or NI on them. The max value they can take is £243 per month and they cannot be refunded back to the parent once they are paid to you.

Once a parent completes their part of the paperwork you will need to do yours and then it is registered with the company. The employer will pay the company and then the parent releases the funds from her company account and the company pays you. Mostly comes within 3 days and it goes straight into your account as good as cash. In some cases you would need to type voucher numbers in online or submit by post

Really easy and highly recommeneded. It can save parents up to £80 per month each.

I have one parent pays with Sodexho paper vouchers and I have to make a phone call to redeem them, account was easy to set up.

Another parent pays with Computershare e-vouchers, money goes into my account 4 days after parents request it. Had small teething problem with my details but was sorted within a week.

I have 4 different parents paying via 4 different voucher schemes. Once they are set up its easy - i get paid directly into my bank.

With 4 different schemes all paying me on different days its a bit of a juggle to keep track but much better than having to remind parents to pay me each week!

Yep just need to register with the company the parent is using.

I get paid by three different companies from two lots of parents and it's so much better for me. Means the money goes straight into the bank and not in my purse :thumbsup:

Hi I have payment paid straight into my account from a parent using The Teds scheme. The parent set it up and i had to fill out my minding and bank details, its so easy, the bonus is you get paid on time :)
