Unprofessional system towards employees

I got a job from Smollan Dec 2019 through festive holidays and I was posted at Absa bank as a product sales agent. To begin with, before I resume my duties they never conducted orientation with me with regards to company's policy like all other job. I was the places and started to sell the life cover as per my daily duties which I was told on a 1 day training. Days went by an the guy I believe is a payroll officer and HR administrator sent me a WhatsApp message requesting that I sent my bank statement as well as my SARS documents which I did, that was 3 days after I started working. Come 28th everyone got paid except for me, when I query with him he advised that I sent my document after the 10th therefore company logistics states that in such situation I only get paid the following month on the 7th. Now my point was like didn't you find it important to let me know before hand so I can budget accordingly transport wise he them said I will have to wait. I the told him I quit. His boss phoned me apologizing on behalf of the company but that made no difference because my money wasn't paid, I had to spend festive broke. Come the 7th of Jan, No money in my account when I ask the guy he just said " there must be a mistake, it should have been paid by now. Please give me until 10am to check the issue" that is the only thing he could said. I am very disappointed in that company, I would never encourage my loved ones to work for it no matter the circumstances.
