i am sure you've already got plenty of feedback.
I would suggest breaking your work down into parts and getting the client to sign them off one by one. This can be for each week for example. That will enable you to build up an account of what happened and also give you a file to work with.
You work is probably 'work for hire' in this sense if they fail to honour their part of the deal they may legally not be able to utilise the work you have done. This is just a hunch, but may well be true.
It is scandalous that companies continue to exploit this kind of behaviour.
Fur future reference aim for a written brief or outline or some kind of commitment from their side and also to invoice on a weekly basis or similar.
