My company hasn't fully reimbursed my expenses

We submit our expenses every 3 months. I just checked mt online account and i am about £50 short of what i claimed for. Everything was legitimate and none of it was questioned therefore i was expecting the full claim.

However, this isn’t the case and i’ve pointed this out and asked for the difference to be explained.

Is this illegal? Does it amount to wage theft?

Whats your advice?

Thanks

Hanlon’s Razor applies here I think.

However, this isn’t the case and i’ve pointed this out and asked for the difference can be explained.

Wait for an answer

Is this illegal? Does it amount to wage theft?

Whats your advice?
yep wait until work tells you what they did. perhaps everything wasn’t in order or something was missing.

Is this illegal? Does it amount to wage theft?

I reckon a simple error so don’t got getting the police involved…just yet. 🙂

Whats your advice?

Wait. Anyone can make a mistake.

and asked for the difference can be explained

Maybe wait for a reply? If you’re not happy, maybe discuss it with your line manager / HR?

Whats your advice?

Burn their offices down – evil capitalist thugs!

…or wait until they reply.

Does it amount to wage theft

🙄

Seriously? If the claim was in order then of course it is a simple error.

being the guy in this company that signs off the expenses and passes them to be paid, just ask then.

You really could not believe what some people think can get submitted, the bad maths and lack of receipts.

Why does money bring the worst out in people who are so right!!

Whats your advice?

Go ****ing postal!!!

Burn their offices down

Definitely this.

Seems a bit premature to create this thread before knowing why it’s £50 short, as has been said already, it could be your mistake it could the their mistake – I highly doubt everything’s in order and they just decided not to pay £50 of it, which would be the only reason to create a rant thread…

Is this illegal? Does it amount to wage theft?

Is what legal? You don’t know the reason yet, maybe you made a mistake, maybe the person processing the claim made a mistake.

Think you need to back off a wee bit.

And as you own the company I would sack the moron who committed this act of thievery.

They’re definitely all plotting against you. First its this, then….

Obviously you should immediately ream them a new orifice with a rusty pair of bombers.

…or ask them.

Obviously we all know you are going to ask them, just let us know the outcome. There’s too many unclosed ranty threads here as it is!

I was hardly ranting. Some of the answers are more ranty than my OP.

Is this illegal? Does it amount to wage theft?

does read as quite ranty.

I’d phone 999 about it or nuke the office from orbit.

me think he doth protest too much

I was hardly ranting.

posting on here before you have heard back from your work about legality and wage theft might be considered an over reaction

I was hardly ranting. Some of the answers are more ranty than my OP.

Pretty silly and unreasonable accusation without a response from whoever does your expenses.

The obvious answer is take a trip to the stationary cupboard an relieve the company of 50 quid’s worth of Bic’s, pencils rubbers & notepads.

or alternatively wait until they reply.

Burning down the office would be over the top. You should just burn company assets up to the value of £50.

I’d probably post a ranty message on an mtb forum about it.

*walks towards office with molotov cocktail

maybe they are claiming back time wasted on the internet?

Steal two rolls of toilet paper every week for a year.

Have you been reading “Christie Malry’s Own Double Entry”?

the OP off to chat about his expenses…

Ah you work for Singletrack Magazine, and are afraid to ask directly to asked anonymously on their forum.To shame them into paying.

im almost as outraged* by this as i was about how unserious folks were taking the urgent mazda speaker thread yesterday….

* not outraged at all….

make sure to stamp on someone’s cereal for this!

no pudding or curtains for them either !

OP going into work, tomorrow.

Have you been reading “Christie Malry’s Own Double Entry”?

Err nope, and I’m not too sure I should even Google that in the office….

Worst “I get expenses” thread evaaaaarrrrr!

I’m pretty sure there’s a mob for hire in London at the moment as they’re probably at a loose end after their last “job” at that cereal shop.

Joking aside, I’d say it’s more of a 101 matter than a 999 matter.

I bet if you were £50 up you wouldn’t be posting about how to give it back.

Maybe that’s the issue ,the Op’s been claiming for breakfasts at the above establishment and are objecting to the absurd costs by withholding £50.
