They will pay you for the two weeks but will be half payment at the end of the month. Request for your right if they don't show sign of paying you

Did you miss where he said to resume 'immediately'?
@ poster, read your contract of employment and you'll find your answer there. You don't just get up and leave a company and expect to be paid for disrupting their plans. Every action has consequences.

yes, it's mostly written in an appointment letter that you give a month notice before leaving and if you are leaving immediately, you are to forfeit one month salary.

So read ur appointment letter to see the terms and conditions there

Good luck

Then read whatever is there and follow it, mine's not up to a month, some are more than a month, all companies vary and also depends on your level in the firm.
Anything outside the contract does not concern you, so read it and act.
I'm out.

You tell the other company you have somewhere you are working already and would join them the next month after the current one you are working in. They will understand, they are human beings and will wait for you. Chikena.

That means you can leave and ask for your entitlement. Good luck.

Thanks for drawing my attention to that. The reason I said that is because most company hire an entry level employee on probation. But as others have said, his contract letter is his best guide.
