Got fired under stupid excuse, ex-employer avoids paying my notice, what do I do?

As per the title. UK In January I got fired for “poor attendance” after coming back from 3 weeks holiday at my home country and catching covid on the flight back despite having almost if not pefrect attendance before that. 3 days after positive results I got laid off. After that I received what was a break down of payments I should receive for sick pay during these 10 days of isolation (employer can't fire us here while being on sick leave) and consecutive 2 weeks notice. Those payments were divided into 2 monthly payments. Some of it at the normal pay day in January and the rest in February. Here is where the problems started. I received the January payment on time as should be by the end of Jan but at the end of Feb when I should get my other part of the payment I didn't get…


As per the title. UK

In January I got fired for “poor attendance” after coming back from 3 weeks holiday at my home country and catching covid on the flight back despite having almost if not pefrect attendance before that. 3 days after positive results I got laid off. After that I received what was a break down of payments I should receive for sick pay during these 10 days of isolation (employer can't fire us here while being on sick leave) and consecutive 2 weeks notice.

Those payments were divided into 2 monthly payments. Some of it at the normal pay day in January and the rest in February. Here is where the problems started.

I received the January payment on time as should be by the end of Jan but at the end of Feb when I should get my other part of the payment I didn't get a payslip or any information about it. I tried reaching out to my manager and finance dept woman. For the past over 3 weeks all I am getting from my manager is “I'll ask” and from that woman “I'll find out and get back to you” which she never does. All of those great responses come if I even manage to get a hold of them because they repeatedly ignore my texts and rarely answer my calls.

I have their email addressed as well as the company owner's, what can I do to enforce them paying the rest of that money? That's over £600 and I could really use it.

Thanks for any help!
