I issued a MCOL to my previous employer for a bonus that was not paid to me back in September 2016.
I chased and chased this payment during my employment through my manager and payroll (the only way to contact payroll was via email) all emails were ignored.
I have copies of all emails I sent requesting the payment at the time.
In November 2016 I sent a final letter chasing the payment, giving 7 days before commencing action through MCOL.
I received a default judgement as they did not respond and have now paid £77 to issue a Warrant of Control which was issued on 16th December.
This morning I have received an email from my previous employer stating they are in receipt of my claim.
They believe the reason for my claim is a deduction from my pay on October for 'overtaken holiday' (this is not the what I'm claiming it's for unpaid bonus)
they have said they will contact the court to let them know I'm not entitled to the amount claimed.
It looks as though they have not read my Particulars of Claim sent at the time of the original claim as this outlines the proof of being entitled to my bonus and numerous requests for it to be paid.
I've checked and they have another unsatisfied CCJ for £35k from November 2016.
Mine is only £400 plus costs of £112.
They are actively trading and have 40+ branches accross the UK
What are their options now?
Can they apply to get this set aside now I have obtained a Warrant of Control?
Should I reply to their email stating their reason to apply to set aside are incorrect, or just let them pay the £255 and send the incorrect information?
