Take out a CCJ on the scumbags
 
I see a lot of members have advised you to get yourself down there, I'm not sure exactly what they think that will achieve other than more debt. Download a court order form (N1), fill it in and send it to them telling them this is the form you are going to escalate the debt to the courts to if they don't pay you, it will work in 99% of cases. If they are genuinely down on the bones of their arses you won't get anything anyway. Maybe the location should have given you a clue lol are eh, are one, are two (that's a scouser doing an EICR)

Depends how important it is to you, I guess...

typical notts. can't count past a pair of ----.
 
I had trouble getting paid through an agency once. Turned out it was actually the umbrella company being incompetent.
In that instance the agency were based in Southampton so I was able to go in there and sort it out, but I still haven't worked for them again, and probably wouldn't.

Which agency was it?
