Hi I really really need some advice
I have been working self-employed for a local company (as a data engineer).
I work for a company for our sake called (NETWORK1) and we are then subbed to a company - and they hold the contract with Tesco to do various works involving data.
I have only worked for the company for a total of 3 months and I was paid 2 days late the first month. On time the second and the 3rd month he told me he would be paying the on Sunday 2nd September 2018... as we approached sunday night I had heard from another member of staff that no wages are being paid until 5th Sept 2018. Which would have another negative repercussion on my credit score.
I fell into a desperate situation and found myself stealing from a client (tesco) to try and raise some funds to put into my bank monday. I was caught and the issue has been raised with the police and I believe I am being prosecuted. I am deeply ashamed of doing so and I have lost my job (obviously).
The owner of the company I work for is ignoring my calls and texts and he owes me a total of £1176.
Can he refuse to pay me?? - also where would be best for me to find some support/what should I do?
Thanks
