Redundant and problems claiming holiday pay

Options
Hi all, this is a rather long post but hoping someone can help with this as I feel a bit of an underdog.

I was made redundant in September of 2014. I claimed redundancy pay successfully however only got paid outstanding holiday up to the date of the company becoming insolvent. I carried on working for a further 6 weeks after that so effectively am owed 6 weeks holiday pay.

I contacted the redundancy claim department and they said I would have to go through the solicitor dealing with the companies finances. Cue various emails and phone calls over the last year with them basically telling me they are aware of the situation and will deal with it soon ( I made a note each time I contacted them).

I strongly suspect they are just fobbing me off but they are obviously very knowledgeable about the law and I feel pretty helpless. At the end of the day it is not a huge amount of money, probably around £100 but I feel I worked for it and am also annoyed at the way the solicitors have continually lied to me in the hope I will give up- which I almost have done. Any advise on what to do or should I just let it go as more hassle than it's worth?

Thank you so much for any advise...

    6 weeks so your owed 3 days
    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.
