My manager offered to give me a reference to a new job, which makes this a bit more complicated now. I think I might hold off a bit on it until I am secure in a new position, and then I can come back and pursue this diplomatically. There is a good case to be made that they would want to avoid a pitched battle that could be devastatingly lost.
Most of what I am owed is shift differentials, but even so, that money should be in my bank account.
IS this a big company? Does your manager have anything to do with Payroll/HR?
I know it's a world of difference but I had this issue several times with my previous employer, the Payroll was just horrible and they knew it too. When I left, I did have to ask for some money unpaid; payroll fixed it up no issues and there was virtually nil interaction with my manager who later gave me references.
As long as you are able to show with evidence you are missing remuneration then I don't think you will have an issue, unless you work for a small business.
