For context, I am a trainee in a contractor thru my school. I work full time in holidays and days when no school, plus two days a week. Last year when school ended I was supposed to get a raise as i was no longer just in practice but a full time employee (I'm still in school and work, just different position). The office meant I shouldn't get the raise before after summer was over and school started again.
After quite much arguing I, with help from my school, managed to convince them I was right. That was 5 months ago. Every month some lady in a different office than those who pay the salary, have promised me I was getting the money this salary. Every Single Month from then.
Everytime i get the same response when I ask when I notice I haven't gotten the money. They somehow forgot and promises me the money would come next salary. Just before new years the lady came to my workplace and discussed the happening, about how they haven't been good enough, but this time it would be different.
She promised the money would come on January's salary, and this time it sounded credible, she came, talked in person, excused their behavior. Spoiler alert: it did not come on this salary either. I sendt a email the lady I have been in contact with before, and she would talk with the payers and respond as soon as she's talked with them.
It's been almost a week now, and no response or no sign of any money. I don't understand what's happening, the company is thriving, so what can possibly take them so long?
Tldr; I have been promised over and over again that I would get the rest of the money(1000$) from last summer, when after a lot of reminders and complaints from me, and promises back, there's still no money.
