Nope, you get payed 1 week of being there. I think it used to be £50 but im not sure if its £120 per week for the first few weeks? have to ask your recruiter.

Your pay will go directly into your bank account as you are loaded directly on JPA (the Army Admin Computer thingy)

You are told to take some cash to see you through in case there is a computer problem
