    If you started in August, then presumably you invoiced at the end of the month and would have expected to be paid by the end of September. So it's not all that late yet.

    I think I'd take the approach of having a quiet chat with a manager and just say that you're obviously not going to keep turning up without being paid and see if he can exert any pressure on the finance department. This sort of thing is most likely down to the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing.

    I'm still trying to get paid for direct work I did in June. Should be going to court next week...
    Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

        Aslong as the Co is not going bust you'll get your money, start adding on penalty interest to your next invoice and see if that stirs anything up.

          whs. direct work will take longer and sometimes much longer than agencies. if your work is approved you should be fine. make sure your manager is aware - he/she should be able to pull strings if you politely point out your exposure and make it plain that you will need to stop working unless something happens.
