References... your employer can't give you a bad reference...

They could I guess fail to give one though. But if they are this petty then I would question if they would give you one anyway when you resign?

I would speak to the new employer and explain what has happened, explain that there is a possibility that your current employer may refuse to give you a reference as a result. I've employed people a lot and 99% of the time I don't pursue references because it's utterly utterly pointless anyway... previous employers will never tell me someone is late 50% of the time, even if they wanted to they can't. So instead I have 3 month probation on new employees, found that far more productive in helping me find good people.

I know many people have already told you but this is quite worrying...
