I think, although not 100% sure, that as you just left without giving notice, they could sue you for breach of contract but they haven't so, if I were you, I would be grateful for the 4 weeks pay and holiday and move on.PM22 said:I'm glad I left them in the lurch. They let me down when I was being bullied.0 -
So, when working you made no useful contribution at all?PM22 said:They won't have incurred any losses because of my departure, don't worry.6 -
Careful how you go. Where I worked, we had somebody come to interview who said they were taking their previous employer to a tribunal. They didn't get the job. There was no way the interviewer was going to expose the business to a potentially litigious employee when there was a good selection of other candidates available.Make £2026 in 2026

If you do take old employer to a tribunal and new employer finds out, they can still dismiss you if they think you will be a liability.PM22 said:I've got a new job starting 5/3 and off course I haven't told them I'm thinking of taking previous employer to a tribunal....that would be pretty dumb..If you are querying your Council Tax band would you please state whether you are in England, Scotland or Wales0 -
OK, I'm going to ask the above for a third time.....Wyndham said:
I don't think they are running scared, I think they just want to be rid of you.PM22 said:Yes, that's true but why are they running scared of a tribunal?
Once again I will ask:
Do you feel you were discriminated against (by which I mean on one of the protected characteristics)?
How long did you work there?
And, why do you think you will suceed at a tribunal? Most people don't, so why are you thinking you've got a strong case?
Given that the OP seems reluctant to reply, then I think that tells me everything I need to know... and I don't have time to waste on people who ask 'advice' but actually want others to agree with their preconceived view.7 -

OP - just sign it and walk away, it will be better for you in the long run0 -
I'm getting legal advice at lunchtime. I will probably just sign it, I need the money as my new job doesn't start until 5/3....but I'd love to take them to a tribunal and see how they like that0
