I had been employed in a real estate company and recently got fired. This had become a thing in the last year of my working there, a lot of people got fired with no probable cause. Because of Covid, we had salary delays, and they owed me two months' salary plus commission. The week I was fired, I had just closed two accounts, which meant money owed. However, I received no letter of warning or notice. I have written to the company about what I’m owed, but I have received threats instead. The new HR has been on my case claiming that I have been stealing clients of the company in contravention of a non-compete clause. But that's not true. How can I get paid?
