    as soon as you left, your p45 should have been sent out to you within a week.
    Have you no contact within the wages dept that you can call?
    HR Managers are a waste of space

    She doesn't have to give you a reference letter but she does have to send you your P45 promptly. Tell her that you need your P45 immediately and if seems that they are stalling again ring the local tax office and tell them that they are not giving you a P45. Typically doing that will result in you getting a P45 very quickly.

    the same thing happened to me. they kept giving me the same excuses (in the post etc) the only thing i can recommend is that you ring them every day till you get it(it worked for me)they will soon get fed up of it and will send it to you. best of luck

    Ring the tax office! Report them for withholding your P45 and believe me you won't be long waiting for it them, happened to me a few years ago.

    employers must return ur p45 as soon as possible but if u were paid monthly they may be keepig until ur last pay check. by law all companies are required to give u a minimal reference which states so-and-so started on this date as a operator/manager/loo roll replacer and finished on this date. they cannot give u a bad reference.

    No they're not.
