Dismissed from employment

faringdon

In approx June this year i  took a job on PAYE at lets call it Acme Ltd , and told the owner i would be able to get up to speed with his mechanical drawing software in no time. However, after 2 weeks i still hadnt nailed it down and he started screaming at me. I simply told him i would leave there and then  and he didnt have to pay me.

 Indeed, i received no pay, but recently whilst applying for a new job, i was directed to the HMRC site and a printout told me  that i had been at this company, "acme ltd"  for 2 weeks...so i guess they must have payed my TAX and NI?...i didnt even think the HMRC would know i had been there?
