    Permanently delete data from Avance, Infoplus, Mpower Plus and Staffing Prime?

    I do save and block phone numbers, but I have probably ~500-1000 recruiter phone numbers in my phone, but probably 70% aren't in the business anymore. It's a lot of manual labour. Most EU/British recruiters actually read the first 5 lines of my CV, which say that I'm looking for a DevOps...

    Permanently delete data from Avance, Infoplus, Mpower Plus and Staffing Prime?

    They keep deleting my data upon request, but then re-adding me to their database when I re-upload my CV to one of the big IT job boards, which I sometimes do weekly. I get 8 phone calls per day from them sometimes for the same permanent position in Leeds. The statistical chance of getting good...

    Contract Position Offered - Working remotely from the UK

    I currently live in the EU, but not in the UK. I've left 2 years ago. I've been offered a position to work remotely, but they want me to be a tax resident in the United Kingdom. I'd also have to operate through a UK Limited Company. The position is fully remote and they have no problem with me...

    How can we fight back against Infosys, TCS and other Indian consultancies?

    I am not a libertarian, but a free market without too much regulation should fix this problem by itself.

    Dormant or Close LTD company

    Doesn't this matter how much money you have in your company? If you have £300k... maybe live in Thailand/Singapore/Philippines for the next 6 months by the beach and pay yourself out with low taxes instead of UK taxes? Possibly even take a free job for 4 hours hourly that you enjoy... that'll...

    How should I answer... "Do you have any other interview processes?"

    How should I answer... "Do you have any other interview processes?" if recruiters ask. The answer is generally... "Yes, my CV has been submitted to 5 other companies", but I don't want to scare recruiters away.

    Cater Allen deposited £750 from my Business Bank account to Treasury

    I still had £750 in my Cater Allen bank account, which they transferred to the UK Treasury when my company was dissolved. What can I do now?

    Capital Gains Tax / Enterpreneur Relief - Stopping after 2 years

    But that's the point... The NWV web ui allows removing dividends and reassigning them as director loans, with 1 ciick of a button. I'm just wondering up to what point CGT tax + entrepreneur relief tax will be lower than paying plain dividend tax.

    Capital Gains Tax / Enterpreneur Relief - Stopping after 2 years

    I've made around £100k in the first year and £60k in the second year, there estimates are probably off by quiet a bit. But I've paid myself a small salary and a dividend. Now that I'm closing my company... wouldn't it be better to replace the dividends by loans so that I pay capital gains tax...

    Emigrated for a job

    Any sympathy rather than an attack would be welcome. I'm still in shock and just any tips handling this situation would be welcome.

    Emigrated for a job

    I had a job offer here 2 weeks ago and e-mailed all recruiters I was talking to that I was planning to take it and I would be off the market for the next 6 months. But the recruiter of this company said that they liked me so much and they matched the offer. They sent the contract and confirmed...

    Leaving the country for a few years

    Most of the profits were from 2015. The dividends paid out in 2016. I thought you could pay yourself out in a later tax year if you wanted.

    Leaving the country for a few years

    I'm planning to leave the country for a few years. I might come back after that. I've been contracting for around 2 years. This is what my accounts look like curently - http://i.imgur.com/h208I6Il.png. The "Retained Profit" is negative, because I max'ed out the £100k at the End of March...
