I have been made redundant as the company I worked for has gone in to receivership.I am due 12 weeks pilon.I have worked for three weeks and received jobseekers allowance when I was not working.The pilon will be reduced by the amount that I have earned and claimed.Can I,therefore,claim the amount deducted by the government from the administrators of the company as a preferential creditor?

    yes you can claim, however unlikely you will get much.

    I did this years ago, was owed about £12K, eventually got £2-3K over two payments over the next couple of years, better than notting bothering at all!
