My maternity pay has dropped?

[ella]

It has gone from about 550 to 370 this month - why would this be - thought it was fixed after the first 6 weeks ?

I'm only guessing but could it be the way the weeks fall? SMP is by week, not month. So it looks to me like you got 5 weeks pay last month and 3 and a half weeks pay this month. The half week makes it a bit odd though

It is paid by week, but I would query the amount though as I would expect at least 4 weeks pay each month.
