A quick question for you folks.

My company sent me on a training course, about £1500 worth they say. Now that I've quit, they say I must pay the money back and are threatening to withhold my leave pay and expenses money to do so.
I never signed anything that stated I was liable for this money and when I joined it wasn't in the company rules or my letter of appointment.

Other employees who have recently been signed up for training have signed the letters saying that they'll pay the money back if they leave within 3 years.

I'm going in tomorrow to write an email saying that I will not pay them back and that if they do take money off me I'll take them to an industrial tribunal. Although I have no idea what that would entail and I'm basically out on a limb here.

They also said that I wasn't getting paid on my normal payday, the 15th of the month. The letter said that my P45 and final payment would follow in "due course".

WTF do I do, if they don't pay me on the normal day I'll already be in trouble. If I argue and they withhold money I'll be in more trouble, financially.

None of this really helps when everybody around me seems to be wigging out...
