I have written on mumsnet recently that I had concerns that my DH was hiding finances from me. So having listened to all the fab advice I received on here I started delving and searching. End result - discovered my fears were well founded as he had secretly set up a Ltd company which his mother was director of plus a business account to go with it !! ( also in her name , he is discharged bankrupt and still can't get bank account in his own name ).
He has a Ltd company that I am aware of plus bank account t for that one as he is an IT consultant and has to have a Ltd company to get contracts.
I felt sick to the stomach when I discovered this other company that I had absolutely no knowledge of. I was adamant to find out more and through trail and error I managed to access his files via some file sharing software he installed on our computers.
He scans every single letter, receipt, invoice,bank statement etc so now I have complete financial and documentary evidence that he did this.
He thought I would never see his files as he prob thinks I am clueless how to access them!
This
' secret' company and bank account were totally kept secret from me. All post to do with it went to his mothers address.they kept the business and bank account active for approx 2 yrs. it was only dissolved this May.
I confronted him and he says it was to avoid VAT threshold and when I ask why it all kept from me he says that it is because I am not interested in these things!,
I am really mad as I think he was hiding money from me as during the time he set it up we were going through a bad patch. Any advice gratefully received...
