Resolved Question

Have you been paid by your employer this month?

At 9am this morning, I found out that my employer, Meter-U (part of Spice Group plc) has not paid my monthly salary into my bank account, nor has it paid any of my colleagues. The payroll staff seem to be oblivious to this and can provide no explanation.

This would seem to indicate financial trouble with both Meter-U and its parent company Spice Group plc, which in these troubled financial times is more than a little worrying.

Bankruptcy here I come!

Additional Details

Just checked the TUC website, and they state that non-payment of wages is counted as an unfair deduction, and that if not resolved the matter can be taken to an industrial tribunal.

Additionally, if an employer does not pay you as per your contract , you can actually go to the small claims court to reclaim the money. There is also the option to sell the debt to a debt collection agency, as employees are counted as creditors.

This is the indication that your company is going through a bad financial situation. Anyways, you will be informed soon about the reason of this late payment. but, you should be aware that of the situation goes on, your Co. will sink soon and you should be prepared to jump from it before it gets sunk.

• You say the payroll staff seem oblivious - which means they don't know, but you don't say if they seem surprised - it could just be a payroll cockup.
• There are delays sometimes. just send a rep from the employee to make sure it was just a mistake and not going to be a huge problem.
  
  The way you are saying it seems to be like you have been expecting bankruptcy.
• It all starts from here, tomorow he will tell you about the reason for late payments, then next week same thing, untill the company will go bankrupt
