    Thanks Paralytic - I appreciate your swift response. Looks like its at least something else not to worry about.

      Even if you want to find out what information they hold I would advise against using a non secure link such as http.

        Nothing illegal about that construct.

          OK, so as Baker Tilly are directors of the trust, and as such should know where all funds invested into the trust are, perhaps when a contractor that paid into the trust asks for their investment back, that would be for Baker Tilly to address/resolve, is that correct?

            What I posted is a quote from a document sent to me by a then Darwin employee from a Darwin corporate email address with a Darwin corporate email signature ... If BT were the trustees then they will be able to provide the back story as to what happened to the trust once it was no longer being used.

            What I find intersting is; 'the contractors do not become Directors or Trustees on the trust so there is no on-going liability for them when they cease operating through Darwin'

                That may be a fair point, they should know where the funds are and why was nobody consulted before doing anything or selling the lot on. Not that I know anything about that lot but surely a reasonable request

                  I can also confirm I have an email from Darwin of the T&C's of their contract at the time and there is not a single mention of the word loan anywhere in it.

                    You have to ask why a company that alleges they own a loan book would only ask for a small % of it back?

                    Some people on this thread and other threads have disclosed £10k's of thousands and others £100K's in discretionary payments ... If there was a genuine claim for repayment then why ask for ~10 - 20% of the total?

                      They're being generous out of the goodness of their hearts.
                      Scoots still says that Apr 2020 didn't mark the start of a new stock bull market.
