    has director failed in his fiduciary duties

    Im really appreciating our help here fellas.... all may not be lost... as the director in questions has strutted an exit plan as he wishes to retire.. AFTER he has paid back his DLA.

    has director failed in his fiduciary duties

    I posted this originally in ACCOUNTING but wonder if actually its more of a legal thread. Would be most grateful if someone could help? I need to know if the MD has acted illegally by putting numerous personal bills through the business - and NOT having them allocated to his directors loan...

    Insurance company won't pay the vat on my invoice

    Forgive me but your post stated "Plumber reclaims the £20 from the VAT invoice from you." And it is that, that confused me As he doesn't reclaim the vat FROM me But from the HMRC instead Thanks

    Insurance company won't pay the vat on my invoice

    Sorry but I dont follow... If plumber is paying my invoice and £20 of that is the vat.. I am going to pass that money on to HMRC. I'm not keeping it for myself. So he would need to reclaim it from HMRC.. not me... Otherwise I would be out of pocket!!

    Insurance company won't pay the vat on my invoice
