HELP PLS - I too am caught up in this
Hi
I have also have received these letters and am in panic mode.
1. Has anyone resolved this into a positive outcome - i.e a non settlement outcome?
2. Do they have any legal grounds to process this extortion?
3. Their recommended legal advisors seem very convenient for them, I am looking into other independent legal advisors
4. Could we not just send the letters back saying this person no longer lives here?
5. Can VOSCAP (liquidators) get a court injunction to retrieve the money?
Many thanks in advance.Comment

Just wondering if anybody has heard back from Voscap? I’ve not heard anything from them since the initial letter and my initial response.Comment

Don't know
2. Do they have any legal grounds to process this extortion?
Quite possibly

You could try WTT - I don't think anyone else has mentioned other firms on this thread but they recommended firm is probably not a good bet
4. Could we not just send the letters back saying this person no longer lives here?
It won't work and just annoys everyone including courts - so don't do it.
5. Can VOSCAP (liquidators) get a court injunction to retrieve the money?
No but they could get a court judgment that the money is owed and then collect it.
Many thanks in advance.
The big issue is what HMRC will be asking for as I suspect that will swamp everything else.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

As I said earlier this thread all this looks far more dodgy to me than the Best Employment liquidation where HMRC is owed the money - I just don't see how a different "umbrella" company T2 outsourcing Ltd can be owed money.

Originally posted by Laith View PostHMRC have just asked to settle tax affairs on the disguised remuneration through submitting amended tax return. However they still have a massive backlog. They’ve set a deadline of 31st December for themselves to go through all submitted tax returns.
But I suspect it will be a lot more than £1 and Voscap have got a project which will be far harder than they thought it would be.Last edited by eek; 17 December 2020, 12:20.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

Originally posted by eek View PostSorry, I should have been more clear - I wasn't talking about the money HMRC are asking from you directly, I'm talking about the amount of money HMRC believe Tailored owe them which is listed by the liquidator as £1 as he doesn't know.

This is a different company / scheme (Tailored) with
1) a liquidator (voscap) appointed that has probably bitten off far more than they were expecting and who don't appear to be responding to calls and letters
2) the umbrella firm (which should be in liquidation) seemingly trying to get people to use their lawyers.
As WTT has previously posted on here and we don't seem to have any other options I suspect a good starting point for anyone new here would be to talk WTT as I really wouldn't trust Tailored's recommended solicitors..Last edited by eek; 23 December 2020, 08:18.merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment
