If they bring in an administrator my understanding is that permie salary is the last to get paid with HMG first and then B2B second.Originally posted by Cliphead View PostClientCo do have some money that Hector wants but they're planning on paying what they can to permies although not a full month's wages, I'm last in the queue except for maybe the landlord who owns the building so not holding my breath.
Chalk this one down to experience. Again.
There's gonna be tears for souvenirs tomorrow when the permies turn up to the news.
Client Risk Test? Fck Hector, 30+ years in this game and no issues ever

Secured creditors (like banks holding a mortgage) get paid first. Preferential creditors, like employees, get paid after that. Unsecured creditors get paid last.
Somewhere in the mix are the fees paid to the receiver and HMG. They're definitely before employees, but not sure about secured creditors.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment

Be careful that they do indeed belong to you.Originally posted by Cliphead View PostHere's a thing. Since they didn't have a clue they asked me to register several domain names and hosting which I did and paid for and have not been reimbursed, I presume I own them now? Probably useless but...
In the absence of information otherwise the receivers will probably assume they are a company asset and therefore theirs to do with what they wish. In this case you'll be down as an unsecured creditor on what they cost.
Your call: let the receiver know you control the domain names or write their cost off with the other moneys owed.Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.Comment
