Me thinks David is having a laugh with you.
In the event that you don't get paid - and you can give it a few more days, there is the Tribunal where a lawyer will be appointed, unless you have one, to represent you and you will get a due process with which to claim your money. This can (and certainly will now as they are a tad busy) take more than a year for you to get what's yours - minus the lawyers fees. I don't think costs are allocated in this court. Perhaps Sue can clarify the finer points of the Tribunal de trabajo (or tribunal de lo social in some places I think).
This should be your last port of call. You need to be absolutely sure that you are not going to be paid. Something along the lines of getting the finiquito but with no money as you are being dismissed under some trumped up charge or some such. Definetely NOT something you should do just because your pay is late by a week.
Above all else, do give them time and keep in mind that whatever action you take may be a career decision.
Good luck.... and don't call the feds yet
