I feel sick , I am fitting a new kitchen for a client and they have asked for a stone worktop

A quick google search and I came up with a company that is also a member of a trade association so called them and they responded well and they came along and took templates

seemed pleasant enough and I later paid the £1k deposit into their account

I have since been given a proper runaround with no calls being returned , broken promises etc etc

A more thorough internet search of the director was not good with two other people coming up with the same experience

He is a ltd company aibu to send a letter of intent after just such a short time and ask for my deposit back ?

@AlexBird did you manage to eventually find any assets?

You might be able to find him at his other companies.

Good day Billysboy, after 2 years we are still struggling to get our deposit (£1680) back. He hides behind multiple addresses and when the Ballifs went to the Nottingham Address - Registered Office - the occupants laughed at them. Everytime we reapply for Warrant at a different address costs £83.

He should be in jail.

He is still around and operating the same gig then
