Under a year rights?
Discussion
I suspect the answer will be none here.
However my gf has been in a new job for 6 months, probabtion period was 3 months, they extended it by a month to brush up on a few things, and then they extended it again as the relevant people were not in the office to make sure she was doing the right things.
Anyway, fast forward to today they've said its not working out and she's been let go sadly, there doesn't seem to have been anything written or anything, all just word of mouth, anything that can be said or done?
Or as I suspect, take it on the chin, forget about it and get your CV out there again?

Technically, a compnay can only pay in lieu of notice if the contract permits it. If she is not sure what her notice is then obviously she won't know what her final payment should be. If she does know what her notice is then she should ask for confirmation that this will be paid if she is not to work it.
It really makes me think about the whole
'there's no jobs' line.
I swear she was on the phone for 4 hours on Monday and has about 7 interviews ready to be set up in total, two tomorrow, two Thursday, and all the while more people are calling.
It's because we are in London, she's got decent experience, despite the probation, and there's a lot of crossover in sales jobs.

It's the Sales aspect. If she had a career in something more specific. IT programmer or Car Technician or Policewoman. She'd find it more difficult at the moment.'there's no jobs' line.

I've never done sales as such, but I did understand that sales was well paid IF you sold plenty of whatever you are selling, and not otherwise.
Not all sales jobs are flogging windows door to door, I'm not very old (neither is she) and both our basic salaries are above national average wage, that's before we've sold anything 
Also sales blurs into account management too which is more about relationships than hard selling, that's what I do.
