Hoey - Court of Appeal legal fees

[Albert49]

The first para is completely made up in his tin-foil coated head.

The second is a matter of who had signed up and who hadn't. I have no idea whether it is a screw up or simply a case of people wanting help but not wanting to pay. But Eek doesn't know for a fact either.

So no, not 100% correct because it is all conspiracy theory and fiction. Which explains his unwavering and unquestioning support of his favourite tax crushes.

The first para completely made up? So you don't think that the the twitter posts earlier this year by Armadillo Tax Support, Saleos , Gordon Berry Wealth Agent and Phil Manley where they were attacking WTT's/Big Group approach (though usually carefully avoiding naming them), and retweeting each others posts, before setting up a similar business model themselves of monthly subscriptions was coincidence ?

Bravo Albert, nail on head.

I think Albert49 has comprehensively destroyed your first point.

And the second point was based on this particular post - so I'm at a loss as to how you think I'm making things up

For clarity I am both a Big Group member and a member of the Hoey Litigation Association.

I'm not going to get involved in the ongoing spat, I shall keep my views on that to myself however, on the funding request side of things, I don't think the Hoey reps have helped themselves.

As part of the Hoey LA I used to receive an email telling me of significant updates, and would login to the website which gave those updates. In January once the LC review had been published, I received an update to say the support was being ceased on said website and I would have to sign upto Armadillo to continue receiving updates, but the website would remain open until 31st December 2020 to access historic information.

I can only assume that those who didn't sign up (I didn't) had their email addresses removed/deleted from the new 'Armadillo' distribution list. Why do I think this? Because by chance I logged back into the website to get some historic information, only to find out there was a new post requesting additional funding for the possible/probable UTT appeal. I never recieved the usual email making me aware of such an update.

How many more LA members who chose not to join Armadillo are in the same position, and have no idea the request is out there. Quite I few I would guess.

Which shows how much of a mess of your "friends" have made on what should be the easiest of tasks - keeping an email list and sending a single email to keep those who have previously paid money informed. I think that might have been rather useful when you wanted to identify people who may wish to contribute more money.

When are you people going to stop bickering and fighting amongst yourselves and grasp the enemy here is HMRC, who are no doubt standing on the sidelines pissing themselves.

Actually, the real enemy are snake oil salesmen enticing people into schemes which either didn’t do what they were meant to or were merely traps to try to fleece those trusting later on.

Well said and I would encourage folks not to lose sight of that very fact.

Or the people that say we’ll help you, just keep giving us your money...

Just cause it is subscription doesn't make it the same FFS. They are not a litigation, sorry resolution, group. I had no time for their tweeting nonsense as I was also doing a lot of work for LCAG at the time and it was very distracting. I have little time for tax advisors of any name but I believe MH/GB's take is probably more on the money than some want to believe.

So no, not nail on head. Far from it. Just more made up nonsense which seems to be this forum's main purpose.

More nonsense with 'friends' eh. Can't help yourself. I have no skin in the game anymore. I have never met either and I gave GB lots of stick when I used to twitter.

The machinations of how people are informed is subject to lots of technical and legal reqts. You can't just spam people. I have no idea why things were changed or whether there were good reasons for the change. Neither do you, you just make up stories again and again.

Fine if you have facts but all you, and this forum in general, provide is a lasagne of opinion, hearsay and, in your case, uncritical shilling for Big Group.

All I want is for people to see that Hoey is the only case that matters at the moment as it has actually seen the inside of a court room unlike some.
