Is 36k GBP yearly before tax a good salary in London for a bachelor working professional? Considering I need to save money and send it back home and not burn all of it.

That's hard for even you to live with in London, forget sending anything back.

Which company was offering you the offer?

British Telecom

BT usually lowballs. But this is too low if the location is London.

To survive in London you should be looking for GBP 60k at the very least. If you want to save and send back to India, do your own math. Even if you stay a little outside of London, like Maidenhead, Slough, etc. this salary will not suffice.

If the location is far in the north - such as Leeds, Manchester, Liverpool or is in Northern Ireland, then you can think of it as an average salary.

For London, it’s way less than the average.

very misleading saying ‘you need atleast 60k to survive in London’
Have you lost your mind?

BT...Bhikari Telecom - would avoid or switch once in UK
