Reply to: Help needed - how to annoy a company

It looks as if they are trying to swallow all the money recovered in their fees.

It's what liquidators do best.

One of my clients went into voluntary liquidation. I posted about it on here and was told just submit the paperwork that had been asked for and forget about it, don't waste time attending meetings, etc. Because the fees would magically equal any moneys recovered. I had hoped for a few token pence in the pound on the debt. But no, 17 months later and on receipt of the "Final Report" that advice proved correct, to the penny.

at the very least you will wast their time and make them look bad at their club, the membership of which you are paying for.

If there is anything dicey get your MP & the various ministers involved, at the very least they will have to contact the practitioner and ask what is going on, if you are lucky an MP might want to champion your case.

Are they part of a regulated industry? I was talking to someone at clientco yesterday who has to pay out ~£500 to the ombudsman for every case that they (the ombudsman) agree to accept. If they are regulated then it ought to get their attention.

I have been tweeting including "@CompanyIHate". When I look on their tweets page I don't see my tweets.

Is there something else I need to do? Any tips for me?

I have already left them bad reviews on google and scoot. I am going to create more fake emails.

OK, serious for one sec: Are you an investor or a creditor as an investor you are very low in the pecking order and yes, the liquidators interest is to pay themselves first. As a creditor the lanscape is different, but not too much.

Creditor. You are right - I am low in the pecking order.

Fill their entire premises through the letterbox with one of these:



You can't get nicked for "practical jokes" that cause no damage.

I believe MS has booked one of those for the Christmas party tonight.....

Send them love...

True, but you can get a man's DNA from his "love", also, make sure the letterbox doesn't have a flap on the inside (or hard bristles) or it will really hurt as you try to extract yourself after you've produced the love.

Send them love...

Send them parcels of glitter bombs!

As a bit of background, I lost half my money in my only divorce(me and mrs-bp are actually very close)T.

I did not read beyond that

They have shown they do not care about me. I have tried endlessly to engage with them in a constructive manner. Now I have had enough. These days a lot of people look at the internet so posting on review sites helps.

I don't want to visit them to do anything physical. I will be arrested.

As a bit of background, I lost half my money in my only divorce(me and mrs-bp are actually very close) and the other half in a business deal. That deal started in 2008 and went wrong in 2010. Liquidators were appointed in 2012. They asked for money to get the case going - then their fees come out of recovered funds(there was always going to be a pot). I was asked to provide funds as the largest claimant. In 2013 I was told my claim was not approved - even though they asked for money on that basis!

Their communication has been almost non existent and what I have received is almost unintelligible. In August 2015 I found out via an odd route that they had settled the case. It did not come from them. In September they received the money. In October they started to approve my claim. Then asked for a load of documentation from 2008 that no longer exists. They refused to discuss the case except via email. Finally I did get a phone call- after my shrink wrote them a letter telling them I was homicidal and suicidal. I got a promise that they would start looking at my claim with an update before Christmas. On Monday I called them and found they still needed more documentation.

It looks as if they are trying to swallow all the money recovered in their fees.

I know I made huge mistakes and I have paid dearly for them. I suppose they are like all professional advisors. Worry about their fee first and everything else later.

Not strictly true a company is technically a person in it's own right and comes in under the human rights guff

Therefore it must have 'feelings'

Ahh. Yes, he's right, a company is a person. It cannot have feelings however because both are legal fictions.

I am not a person, although I have one (well a few technically).

[BrilloPad]

you cannot a company is a legal entity and also not alive so does not have feelings thus - it cannot be annoyed

if you mean how can you annoy the people who run a company - well firstly you need to know if they actually give a **** about you and what you think as other wise all your efforts will be in vain
