Jimmy - your wife should stop messing about and get a small claim started now https://www.moneyclaim.gov.uk/web/mcol/welcome
Ernie - not sure if this can be used for business debts, but you are in a much stronger position to collect a debt if there is a court judgement in your favour. Without one debt collectors are reliant on the goodwill of the debtor, and it doesn't sound like there is much in this instance.0 -

Thanks, that's very useful! I was hoping that we could have just left them to get on with it, and not had to go through all the hassle of a small claim, it just seems so daunting...I don't think I can hang on til Friday...0 -
One wonders that there is enough enforceable law for you to make a living. It seems so bad that you might have to spend your day posting on forums. Oh, wait, I get it ....Excellent guess!
You can't take it to an employment tribunal. A compromise agreement has been signed - it it therefore a matter of civil debt, and must be dealt with through the appropriate court for debt. This is unfortunate because if, as it sounds, the employer won't have the money to pay, dpeending on the legal status of the employer, you may never see the money at all.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature.

You know as well as I do that you can take anyone to court for anything. Personally, I would consider getting the complaint filed within the 3 months.Excellent guess!

At some stage, if the agreement is not fulfilled, the existence of an unfulfilled agreement is not a very strong defence.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0
