Have you asked them they intend to pay you for that week? You could always point out that you left a contract a week early to take the job (if it's true - they might ask for evidence).
If they are going to pay you, fine. If not, sue them if that's how you want to deal with your new employer, otherwise, take a nice week off somewhere. You could always ask to be paid for that week but to take it out of your Annual Leave allowance.

Is there a clause in the contract forbidding you to work for anyone else? If that is the case, they probably owe you the money.

I agree that it may not be a good idea to raise this issue with my employer as this would certainly create a bad impression, it was just that the HR people near think the sun shines out of there a**es and the way they go on at some of my colleges in emails like " it was clearly stated in your contract blah blah.... WHAT CAN HR DO TO MAKE THIS CLEARER". They just have a off way of dealing with people, and they seem to think they can never make a mistake, even though it was proved to HRs problem in my colleges case.
Though it would be nice to get one up on them but i think I'll save this until it comes to the time I'm leave this company to raise this one.
But on a legal note, where do i stand, am i owed this money?
Officially I'm employed by the company for that week, but they told me not to come into work because it would be easier for them to have me start on the same day as the other new starter

But I wouldn't argue.

Just quick question, Singed a contact for a perm job stating my start date as 20th August, but the company delayed my start date by 1 week to 27th August. The contract has not been changed to reflect 27th as the start date.
Am I entitled to be paid from the 20th August?
Appreciate any advise !

Probably not Gurj but why quibble over a couple of hundred quid?
Not exactly getting off on the right note with your new employer is it?
