O/T - Money advice
Hi ladies,
I hope you and lo's (and bumps) are all well.
I'm hoping someone can give me a little bit of advice as I'm so confused about what to do.
Basically, my oh worked for a company for 6 weeks in Nov/Dec and was only paid for 4 weeks work. At first his old boss refused to give him any payslips or a P45. However after sending a couple of letters asking for them together with his outstanding wages we finally got a reply with the pay slips and P45, but no money. The letter stated that he would be paid the money but no definate date could be given as money was tight and my oh was not a priority. This was at the end of January.
Today, I found out that as of Monday next week his old boss/company will be going bust. Where do we stand? I did have a letter ready to post to him tomorrow giving 7 days for payment or we would pursue the matter through the small claims court. I have also written a letter to the Inland Revenue reporting his old boss, as by producing a P45 with the full 6 weeks pay/tax etc on it he is esentially commiting fraud.
Any idea where we stand with this now? Do we contact the liquidators and join the queue of people that he owes money to? Or do we admit defeat and just accept the fact that we will never get the money?
Thanks for reading my ramble.

Good luck, I hope you manage to get it.
hope you get it sorted xx
I would think that if he has gone bust he will have the name of the Liquidation company - hopefully he will give you that (or maybe inland revenue will have a record??) and you can contact them. Hopefully they will be able to help
Good luck and keep us posted how you get on
