In recent months, I’ve been quietly working on a new venture in the health & safety/compliance space aimed squarely at small and medium businesses.
This service combines hands-on consultancy with online, editable templates, giving businesses both guidance and ready-to-use documentation. Your...
Thank you, this is becoming clearer.
So if on HMRC it asks for a business name - does it matter which one is used?
Or, can it be a business name of 'Mrs' which earned £0, but then MrsDesign = £1,000 and MrsFlowers = £50 for example?
Thanks!
Hi @Scalloway,
Thanks for replying.
So I'd keep the individual invoices for the individual business name (e.g. MrsDesign & MrsFlowers), and just declare them separately to the HMRC?
Thanks,
@WaveJumper,
This is excellent thank you!
Just need to understand how best to get around Question 3, without creating a separate business bank account for both. Don't want a 'T/A' or too much confusion for customers!
Thanks,
Yes, we can certainly see it that way too.
Nether-the-less we can still prove we met the design brief and were performing as contracted to do so.
If something we did wasn't right to the brief we'd hold our hands up.
Yes!
Definitely, a lesson for others who read this thread
Hello UKBF,
This is a question on behalf of the Mrs, but neither of us understands the best way of going about this so I thought I would ask here.
She has a business at the moment 'MrsDesigns' (example name) and is earning over £1k soon so we need to register as self-employed with the HMRC...
Hi UKBF,
As a closing post to this thread, I thought it would be good to come back and give an update!
We stood our ground - no action was taken against us.
No need for courts, just with the use of our Insurance Team was everything quashed.
Lessons to be learned on this for others going...
Hello UKBF,
Just an update ...... its still on-going!
We have support from our Insurance and Legal Teams who will represent us should it go any further to Courts. We have also got a full evidence pack of all correspondence should it be called upon.
Recently this week we have received another...
Hello all,
Just a little update on how this is going.
We submitted a settlement letter with a non-negotiable settlement and final closure of contract due to the client wanting to terminate early.
They have responded back with still wanting the full amount stating that we 'went live' with the...
Hello Nelioneil,
Yes, I do agree with you in that.
However, with the client only a few doors down I don't want to find my tires slashed or my shop windows put through!
Yes, the costs of the proposal were discussed and detailed to the client, along with a price edit as well!
Thanks,
Hi GLABusiness,
We do not believe they have reasonable grounds at all.
They are not willing to give any chance to correct any errors, they demand payment by this Friday of the full amount, or £600 less and they take the website as well.
I like to believe we are fair, the costs were higher due...
It was their option for payment to pay in full.
I did not propose that they should.
In the contract is stated a minimum settlement of 30% would be applied.
As part of the settlement to the termination, I am prepared to set 60% for works I have completed and costs incurred to me, with a...
Hi Financial Modeller,
It was my proposal contract they signed.
Thank you to everyone who has helped in replying so far!
I feel I am going to stand ground on this and offer a 40% settlement payment as part of our terms and conditions in the contract for termination.
Thanks,
Hi GLAbusiness,
Yes, I have a proposal which they have name printed, and dated along with tick against the payments they went with (full payment)
However, the Client un-known to me until recently as someone did this for me, decided to sign-off the contract with the word "C&&T" which I found...
