Dear All,
As discussed in one of threads a week ago, now I have been handed over a notice period of 2 weeks instead of 30 days(4 weeks) that I have signed for initially. When I have spoken to the agency, they are saying they have posted the letter a mentioning the amendment to the notice period, a month ago which I have not received it till date. They are holding my last months money as ransom for acceptance of this 2 weeks notice. I know there is no way they can hold this money legally, but meanwhile when I had discussed with the agency they are saying if I wanted to go legally I will not stand a case as they have already posted the letter and they will show that in their logs.
I spoke to one of the legal chaps who said since I have not received the letter there is no way they can enforce the 2 weeks new notice period so I have every right to ask for 30 days notice and I will stand to win a case if they are taken to court. Also he has advised me to inform the agency that they cannot be holding my money.
One thing is definitely very immoral or unethical that they are holding my money for the month of February as ransom for me to accept the new notice period.
I am really very confused and not very sure if I have to take this route or not.
Please can someone help.
Cheers
