Pay My Nanny Limited, trading as PayMyNanny.net, under the Money Laundering Regulations 2017, is required to, and will comply with all legislation and appropriate guidelines designed to combat money laundering activity, the funding of terrorist or criminal activity in the jurisdictions in which it operates. PayMyNanny.net is required under the rules of the HMRC and the provisions of the Money Laundering Regulations 2017 to verify the identification of its clients. For this purpose, you agree to provide the documents and information that is required to comply with the company’s procedures.
  2. All pay periods administered by PayMyNanny.net are based upon calendar weeks or calendar months. Other payroll periods requested by clients (e.g. mid-month to mid-month) can be considered.  Where employment starts, or ends otherwise than on the first or last day of a week or month, the first (or last) payslip issued will be to/from the date specified, as the case may be. An employee’s pay frequency can only be changed at the start of the Tax Year (6th April) without incurring an extra administration charge.
  3. All PayMyNanny.net subscriptions will run for a specified period, normally twelve months, from the first week or month of tax records maintained on behalf of a client.  One subscription covers one employee, or any number of single employees employed consecutively (but not concurrently) over a twelve-month period.  Where a client joins PayMyNanny.net with retrospective employment payroll liability to be calculated and declared, the subscription period will be backdated to the start of the period in question.  Where the backdated period is more than twelve months’ duration, an additional annual subscription (or subscriptions, if more than twenty-four months) will be required.
  4. PayMyNanny.net may cancel the contract at any time by giving to the client not less than three months’ notice in writing.
  5. PayMyNanny.net fees are payable annually in advance, and its fees will be payable 7 days of registration in full and the PayMyNanny.net service will not commence until such payment has been received.  Thereafter, PayMyNanny.net fees will be payable upon the renewal of the contract for a further twelve-month period or for such period as may be agreed with PayMyNanny.net.  Failure to pay by the date of renewal of the contract will result in the suspension of any services being provided by PayMyNanny.net at that time.  Non-payment of an annual service subscription with PayMyNanny.net does not automatically close your employer HMRC PAYE scheme and Workplace Pension Scheme your payroll and pension filing duties as an employer will continue, even if you no longer have an employee, unless the appropriate actions are taken to let the relevant parties know of your change of circumstances e.g. PayMyNanny.net, HMRC, The Pension Regulator and your Pension Provider.  Note that PayMyNanny.net will only contact the HMRC to de-register and cancel your PAYE scheme (and other relevant parties e.g. The Pension Regulator and /or Pension Provider, where applicable, under a premium pension subscription), be it at the end of the subscription period or when you no longer have an employee, upon receipt of your written instruction (letter or email) to take such action.  PayMyNanny.net will not bear any responsibility for any consequences arising from your failure to provide PayMyNanny.net your closing instructions.
  6. Where Statutory Sick Pay or Statutory Maternity Pay calculations are carried out on behalf of a client in parallel with additional payroll calculations for a second or replacement employee during the same payroll period, PayMyNanny.net reserves the right, at its discretion, either to reduce a client’s subscription period commensurately to cover the cost of additional work involved or to charge an additional fee in respect of such additional services.  Reduction of the subscription period in accordance with this paragraph 6 will not, for the avoidance of doubt, reduce the fee payable to PayMyNanny.net by the client.
  7. Where information concerning changes in employment arrangements are not provided in good time by a client, and especially where this results in a significant amount of extra work for PayMyNanny.net (e.g. in amending client records, reissuing payslips or resubmitting statutory forms to HMRC), backdated enrolment into a Workplace Pension Scheme PayMyNanny.net reserves the right, at its discretion, either to reduce the period of a client’s subscription or to charge an additional fee, to cover the additional work involved.

  9. Where a client ceases to require the PayMyNanny.net service before the relevant subscription period has expired, it will be entitled to a subscription refund, upon request, in line with PayMyNanny.net current fee tariff for Ad-hoc Payroll requirements as shown in Appendix 1.  The refund policy takes into account the deduction of a sum to cover work required for the initial setup of the client’s PAYE scheme and file final statutory HMRC RTI submissions on behalf of the client and to correspond with HMRC to close down the client’s PAYE scheme.  As well as the initial set up of a Workplace Pension Scheme, whether the Declaration or Re-declaration of Compliance submission is due and to inform The Pension Regulator that you are no longer an employer.
  10. PayMyNanny.net will not request the closure of any active Workplace Pension Scheme in case at a later date this will be needed again; the Employer alone will be responsible for making that decision and request.  But should a Workplace Pension Scheme be ceased by an Employer it will not be able to be reactivated again in the future and the Employer will need to set up another Workplace Pension Scheme to comply with their duties.
  11. A full refund of a new PayMyNanny.net subscription is available within 14 days of registration if a client decides not to use the service.  PayMyNanny.net will retain an administrative fee of £30 for refunds requested after 14 days.
  12. In the event of a dispute arising between a client and that client’s employee, PayMyNanny.net will act on the client’s instructions.  However, factual payroll information will not be unreasonably withheld from a client’s employee who will generally have a statutory right to access to their PAYE records.  PayMyNanny.net also reserves the right to advise a client where that client’s proposed course of action in a dispute is in breach of his or her statutory obligations as an employer, and to refuse to carry out any such instructions from a client if this is the case.

  14. PayMyNanny.net will not bear any responsibility for additional Tax and National Insurance liabilities which may arise as a consequence of a client agreeing to pay a net wage to his or her employee where variations in that employee’s personal tax code from the standard single person’s tax allowance in any given tax year result in the client incurring additional liability to that which would have been incurred had a gross wage been agreed.
  15. PayMyNanny.net will not accept liability for overpayment or underpayment of wages incurred as result of an error (howsoever arising) in processing a client’s specified wage for any period in excess of one month from the date on which the first payslip for a full period of a week or month at the newly instructed rate is sent to the client.  It is each client’s responsibility to check payslips received from PayMyNanny.net to ensure that the specific net pay or gross pay sum they have stipulated is shown on the first full week or full month payslip provided.
