Am I still able to fight for the money promised me after my promotion, but have never received?
Find answers to your legal question.

LONG story short:
I was promoted at a major company form an hourly assistant manager to a salaried position as a store manager. I was put into 'my own store' with virtually no training. I did the work of a store manager for about 2 1/2 months. They (upper management) said my salary would begin the day I got to my new store. It never did.
It remained at my (very low) hourly rate until I had to leave the company. No one was willing to give me the money due and owed to me.

SO, what can I do about this?

If it wasn't in writing probably nothing.

Not likely anything you can do about it, especially if you don't have something in writing saying your pay would increase as of the day you started in the new position.

just u remind ur boss to do the needful. If they didn't paid the money u can issue a legal notice to your owner, some times it is very difficult to issue notice to the owner because there is threat of removing from the job. so it is better to setttle the dispute amicably.
