I got a new job in May - it seemed like a fantastic opportunity with a very small new company based in Northern Ireland, to which I would be developing the business down South. Long story short it did not work out, i really did not enjoy the job and did not see my future there. I gave them a full months notice but only ended up staying 2 weeks as we agreed to part early as I did not have much work on.

One of the reasons I left was because they were very disorganised and did not conduct business in a professional manner. In the 3 months I was there my pay was always late and incorrect, but I was very accommodating in sorting it out. On my last 2 paychecks they did not pay me my expenses, but I assumed they would sort it out. They did not. It is now 2 months since i left the job and I am still owed €900. I have sent them 2 friendly reminders by email to which I got one reply from my Direct manager saying "(The MD) says its in the Post"... 2 weeks later I sent a more frank reminder to the MD and my manager, but a few days on and I have heard nothing.

They are obviously p1ssed at the fact that they sunk quite a lot of money into me in the 3 months, but got very little back. So they must be reluctant to give me any more money. I really liked the guys and I do not want to get sh1tty with them, but I am entitled to it and do not intend to let it slip.

I would appreciate some advice as to how you think I should handle the situation.
Thanks
 
Thanks. They are now ignoring all my communication.
What do you think would be the best thing to do next? How does this differ if they were in the Republic?
Thanks
