Hi,

I had already discussed the problem with my PM.

Since i am not having any money with me and running my family with the help of my parents.
If i do not pay my settlement amount will company going to take any legal action against me like filing suite in court ?

Hi...,

The issue must had been discussed with the technical person as well as in HR too and a suitable written request in form of resignation given.

Your previous company has genuinely asked for a full and final settlement.

Now you can request them and discuss the reasons for what you had been left without the information.

To comment, please provide the following information:

1. Did you served resignation and accordingly the notice period

2. Duration of employment

3. Nature of employment: full time/part time/ permanent/ contract

4. Did you had signed any agreement with company

5. Required notice period as per your letter of appointment

6. Company size and status
