    customer wants compensation

    If I were you I would go and ask my solicitor to send her a warning letter as above. Coming from a solicitor will make her think your serious as well as it being from an independent source, so if it came to court you can prove you tried your best. Wouldn't have thought it would cost much tbh.

    Applying for set aside judgement twice

    Yes I believe he can apply a second time if he wishes and has the funds, however the current enforcement WILL continue until he has the court date for the set aside. He need to move fast! J

    Spongebob(ish) advice

    Ethics is a state or mind. The law is something else entirely. Forget about it but learn whatever lessons you need to from the experience and move on. Here's my stance on the ethics of your situation. Your wife and children come first and do everything you can LEGALLY to give them whatever...

    The classic question: Do you hire on grades or experience?

    For us, it's experience! this was because of my father. He suffered from severe dyslexia meaning he struggled to both read and write. He struggled to find work as a result but eventually he was given a break by a large white good manufacturer. He eventually rose to be service director of...

    Spongebob(ish) advice

    I have known them take no action on sums below and around the £50k mark. At the end of the day, it's a fluid thing based in numerous factors such as past history of the directors, the industry involved, the ability to recover anything, the costs of restoring the co to the register, the costs of...

    Spongebob(ish) advice

    If the original Ltd Co has been dissolved and provided you haven't signed a PG for anything then all the debts of the Co died when Companies House dissolved the Ltd Co, including those to HMRC etc. HMRC have the option to reinstate the Ltd Co and then appoint a Liquidator to go through...

    I give up, I just can't win sometimes (rant thread).

    I don't like cherries. I had one once, lost it and have never felt the same since. J

    Client In Administration

    I agree with Scalloway. If there were a way to force the Administrator to give preference to one unsecured creditor over another then what would be the point of Administration. Sadly the choice to extend credit to an entity that is in difficultly is what now haunts you. Unfortunately it's a...

    customer wants compensation

    Citizens Advice would tell her that, mainly because it's what she wanted to hear but also because she gave them her side and her side only of the story. You have refunded her and if that's the best you want to do in the circumstances then that's it. From what you say, SHE decided to cancel...
