This email is sent by an employee to the HR department or directly to the employer after receiving a salary lower than the negotiated one at the time of signing the contract. Receiving a lower salary sometimes creates many problems for employees because they have limited and fixed monthly expenses. Therefore, a low wage can disturb the whole financial circle of the employee. This particular email format has been designed for the same purpose to fix the problem by concerned authorities.
How is it beneficial?
Instead of forwarding an oral request, writing an email to the concerned department is always beneficial. When an employee sends an email, he will have an electronic receipt as a record, which can be shown when needed. The following employees can benefit from it:
Existing employees: They get the correct salary regularly but receive a lower wage for a particular month.
Newly appointed employees: Those employees who are appointed recently negotiated about their salary, but on the very first month, they receive less salary.

Subject: Less salary credited email to HR
Dear Alex,
I am Anderson, and I work as assistant manager of finance for this company. I am writing to inform you that I have received less salary in my account for the current month. My current monthly salary is USD 3500, but I received USD 3000 only, which is considerably less than my existing salary. I have never faced such an issue since 20XX, when I joined this company.
It seems there is something wrong with the accounts department. My salary slip for this month showed that USD 3500 has been credited to my account, which was USD 500 less than the actual amount. I was worried because I never faced such a situation before. I am in a habit of completing all the allocated tasks on time.
I also informed the accounts department about my problem before I wrote this letter. It seems that they did not take any notice of it and that they have not taken my problem seriously. Therefore, I request that you do something to resolve my issue. I shall be very grateful to you.
Regards,
Anderson.

Dear Michelle,
My name is Anderson, and I was appointed marketing assistant manager last month. The moment when I signed the contract, it was negotiated that I would be paid USD 2500 as a salary. I was very happy at that time because the negotiated amount was handsome.
Five days ago, when I received my salary slip, I became worried because instead of 2500, only 1500 USD was credited to my account. This was unfair because everything was mentioned in the salary contract, and I was still paid less. I thought that it might have been posted by the accounts department mistakenly. Therefore, I called and requested that they rectify the issue. Instead of doing something, they directed me to contact the HR department because they told me they posted the salary after taking your directions.
Only you, as an HR director, can solve my problem. Please accept my request and direct the accounts department to post the actual amount in my salary accounts.
I thank you in anticipation.
Regards,
Anderson.
