      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..
      Yes, I am due to have a call with WTT.

      Will keep you updated.

      I did liaise with Mathew Wyatt from ASW solicitors and they said they can arrange a settlement of 5% of what is 'Owed' to tailored.

      Has anyone settled with Tailored via VOSCAP?

      Many thanks

        VOSCAP is supposedly a liquidator trying to recover money - that sounds even dodgier as f*** than I thought it was.

          Hi,

          But surely that's what liquidators do. To recoup the monies 'owed'.

          This whole setup stinks btw and i doubt they have any legal grounds to do so.

            A proper liquidator would be looking (at the first instance) at recovering the whole loan not a part of it - especially not just 5% of it.

            Something about this entire scheme really doesn't add up...

              Has Matthew liaised with the liquidator and agreed on 5% or has this just been promised to you?

                Hi
                Yes i agree and when I spoke with WTT Tom agrees with your views.

                This whole sordid experience is just rotten and wrong in so many levels.

                I'm just curious if anyone has received any replies from VOSCAP?

                I think I will wait until I receive a Statuary demand letter before I do anything as I believe they're pulling a fast one.

                  It was only an assurance that it would not be over 5% as I did not sign up with them yet and was only making enquiries as what they can do for me.

                  But to me it seems all very dodgy and would rather go via WTT and challenge the whole sum owed.

                    It won’t be tailored sending you a statutory demand it would be Voscap. A company under liquidation shouldn’t be contacting us in any instance, so the emails being sent are most likely not authorised. A liquidator I’ve spoken to has mentioned this to me and has even gone as far as saying Voscap can be questioned in regards to this and potentially even reported.

                      I’ve been told by two separate liquidators that they are almost resigned to not being able to recover all of the money that is owed. It depends on the company and of course how much. Not to say they won’t go after the entire amount. 5% being offered seems like a dodgy agreement between whyatt and tailored in exchange for business. Voscap probably aren’t aware in the slightest. Maybe reporting it to voscap is a good idea?
