    Good article.
    Let's hope West 28th do bring thier solicitors to the table - which will likely be a waste of time and erode more of thier funds.

    Of course we all know its just a sham company created recently whose only business is to try another mail box drop scam. I'm sure it won't be the last either, until the vermin behind such companies are ten foot under.

    I am a new contributor to this forum just sharing and airing my concerns in full public view. It kind of helps me to de-stress.
    This news article below sums up my current knowledge to date of this West28th situation:

    So I've spoken to two different people who were being chased by Felicitas, yet only one of them has received the letter from West 28th, the other has not had anything.

    Interesting......

    I believe Andrew William Thompson is the common thread in all of this, right from the scheme days. He is the puppet-master pulling the strings. I have spoken to this scumbag, I remember him retrospectively talking about an 'appetite for risk' to scheme users when it was never mentioned during the hard sell.

You cant even read the signature of the person signing the letter they posted out this week. These are 'people' who clearly want to operate from the shadows as they will be disappearing as soon as they are done fleecing some more low-hanging fruit.

    I know a scam when I see one and my response to them after throwing the letter in the bin is "f**k o** you c*ts"! I've been led to believe this the most apt response, what it lacks in depth and sophistication, it more than makes up for with its delightful clarity.

There is clearly an incestuous trail of connections and people in all the newly-formed companies appearing and making demands. This needs to be investigated properly by HMRC before the are allowed to disappear. People who have paid up previously and are receiving demands need to get in touch with HMRC and object to the dissolution.

    Get in touch with HMRC people and object to the dissolution before they disappear into the shadows!
    It will be interesting to see what December 1st brings ....

    Sounds expensive a poster just above posted his solicitor took six minutes.

    I just spoke to Elysium Law this morning and I'm quite impressed. There are charging flat fixed fee of around £1200 to defend all inclusive.
    They've got about 50 clients signed up to their case.
    Though I'm still mulling it over yet, I don't want to proceed until I understand all their fine print.

    I received letter from West 28th Street at the start of this month. They say I need to respond by end of this November as to whether I want to dispute or accept their case before they move onto to next stage. So I'm feeling worried as to what I should do.
    I'm thinking I'll ignore them as best I can until it gets serious and then I will join Elysium.
    Can they send bailiffs to my house to do you think. My house is under mortgage so that's the property of mortgage company.
    WTT state that you should dispute the claim. I would do that and then ignore everything until they go away which they inevitably will
