Worked as a temp nanny for a family.

Paid at the end of each month.

Left 20th July.

July pay due 30th July.

Got email 24th July saying MB has paid money into account wait for it to clear.

Checked account 8th August and realised hadn't been paid - emailed MB saying money hasn't cleared has it come out of your account.

Still haven't been paid 13th August.

Need the money.

Need to email her what shall I say?

absolutely not .. you just say

"Without Prejudice

Dear MB

I am sorry to have to inform you that as of 13 August 2008 I have not received your final payment of £xxx.

I respectfully request that you ensure that this money is paid into my bank account with immediate effect. I will expect cleared funds by Tuesday 19th August. Failing this I will accept a banker's draft or cash.

Thank you in anticipation

xxxxx"

Can your bank check on this?

They should be able to tell you how long it will take to clear. If you think it's a misunderstanding or bank error I'd say be professional but to the point - if you think otherwise I too would be blunt. Either way I would make it clear you need the money!

She says the money has come out of her account on the 24th July and the funds are gone from her account Would it take 15 working days to clear?

I would say be blunt! Something like 'I have not received the funds due to me. Kindly make the necessary arrangements immediately.'
