Good morning,
Just a quick introduction I have been a member here since last year when I was looking for some assistance in claiming back on PPI. Since then I have visited regularly as am in awe of the amount of knowledge and the willingness to assist and support.
This is a question on behalf of my son. He has worked for this company for 3 months on a salary and commission basis pay date last day of the month. Since he started he has not been paid his commission and always reasons from his employers as to why they couldn't pay it eg people were not paying them. Things came to a head and there was a meeting on 13/5/13 during which it was agreed that commission would be paid on 31/5/13 and Mays salary would be paid on 12/5/13.
On 31/5/13 nothing no commission no salary just a text saying it would be in bank by 5pm. Over the weekend my son tried texting calling but their phones were switched off. Early Monday morning text from employer saying don't go into work and they will sort money out one way or another by the end of the dasy. Nothing.
They have been told there is a meeting today,but doubtful that will happen as several already been cancelled.
Is there anything my son can do to get the money owed to him by his employers? This feels like a scam and so wrong. As he says he wants to provide an honest days work for an honest days pay but it doesn't look like this is going to happen.
Thank you for any comments and/or advice
Christine
