What band are you? When is your appraisal/KSF date as this usually coincides with the increment?

Ok, it goes up by one point so £14,008 according to this and assuming that you've passed all your KSF/appraisal stuff. As far as I know, most Trusts increments go through automatically unless there is an issue with your performance in which case they can stop you passing the KSF gateway to the next increment.

I'm not sure whether some trusts are freezing increment rises or not due to current financial climate, just had the discussion and we think they're not but are unsure.

The civil service department that I work for has frozen everything, including the annual increments
