He already did, you get a hearing with the Rights Commissioner after you submit a "Payment of Wages Act 1991 Form" to the Labour Relations Court.

OP, I've been there as have other posters. All you can do is wait a hope that you are lucky. Unfortunately employers can pretty much do what they like in this country.

Wriet a 21 day letter threatening to petition the High Court for an order winding them up under the Companies Act.

Go and stand outside the business telling everyone who walks in that the company's shafted you. You should get the money quick enough.
