Hi Michael,
the thing is what kind of working contract did you have? A Dutch one or Belgium one... and where have you worked: in Belgium or in the Netherlands.
First you have figure out which legislation is the correct one and needs to be applied.
If it was a Belgium contract, you should go to the Union, the Belgium working law is too complicated to answer your question. But if it was a Belgium contract you can't be fired .... or the company has to pay a fine which is much higher than you received. Have you signed anything? I hope not... otherwise it is getting much more difficult.... but it is not a hopeless situation.
If you were employed at a Dutch company with a Dutch working contract and located in the Netherlands, then you need to check with the Dutch unions or a Dutch lawyer... to be honest the complete story sounds a bit weird and I would invest some time and money to get it sorted.
Good luck!
Ina
