    Good grief. Call the main switchboard and ask for the accounts dept.

    Pre-empting the next question - try google.
    oops snap

    Yeah who is the council? :P

    I think I'll wait few more days and contact the manager again. If he will ignore then I have to chase it myself and call main switch board asking for Accounts. Looks like from last managers e-mail he thinks "it's been sorted".

    A few more days will be next week. Then the manager will say it's sorted and not get back to you so you will be asking the same thing in a week's time. Then eventually you will call the accounts dept and they will say they haven't had it and you will finally, in 2-3 weeks time, find out it's been sat in the person who is now on maternity's tray.

    Just call in the morning and chase from that end.

    I once had an interview for a well known tv company, b*c. They promised me travel expences (flight costs) and after a lot of chasing still nothing! So furstrating after agreeing but not much you can do besides pestering.

    Like I say (and I have done it) issue an invoice and you will get paid!!!

    I got travel paid in 2 days of sending an invoice once.

    Guys, I think I fed up with this already. Yesterday in the morning I phoned their switch board, asked for account dep, they asked why do I need them. I said that I am chasing an invoice, was asked in relation to what - I replied "the interview". Then they put me through to Recruitment team. That women answered phone, I said that I want to speak to Account dep, please could you put me through. She asked for my name, recognised my name and said "I will contact the manager to find out what is going on". let you know soon."

    Still not cheque....

    Yesterday I have sent another e-mail to the manager saying that my travel expenses are still not sorted but he is ignoring my e-mails. What to do? It has been two month since the interview. Really want to complain about all this.

    I want to issue an invoice to them but never done it before. Do you know where to look for template? HR and the manager are both ignoring any of my e-mails so I have no choice as just to sent an invoice.

    CALL THEM - call ACCOUNTS!!

    Ask if they have the invoice ready for payment if not send one over via email to them and mark its for payment in SEVEN DAYS

    Seriously its that easy
