Should I be paying this tax?
So I'm 17 years old and just got myself a bank job working in a home. I received my first pay slip today and I got paid £90 but taxed £18 leaving me with £72. I get paid every month so I'm just wondering should I have been taxed this much when I got paid so low or will I get a tax rebate etc I need help please 
My mums asking me to get my pay slip and see if I'm on emergency tax, are you on emergency tax? If so you should be able to get it back I think

Did you complete a P46 when you started?

No; I was never asked to? Does it matter that this is only bank work or is that irrelevant? Should I just ask someone at work or what??

HMRC can only issue the correct tax code when they have sufficient details of your earnings from your employer.
Your employer will keep using it until they receive the relevant information from HMRC. So do ask your employer if they are progressing this
You will almost certainly be overpaying tax and this will get refunded to you by HMRC when your P60 is issued at the end of the financial year (April 2015). That or the HMRC will ask your employer to repay the overpaid tax to you directly.
