This isn’t the thread for your question, I’ll repost and answer in a new thread.

Q&A’s are here https://forums.contractoruk.com/hmrc...-of-money.html

Ok.. Loan charge was made illegal in 2017.
But most of the users were defrauded by AML and Vanquish and SP management and what not.
How contractors are going to recover the money from them?
Any ideas?
Is anyone who is stung by loan charge planning class action like suit against AML etc?

Okay dumb question alert, but why doesn't HMRC go after the owners of these companies?

I guess that according to current legislation they’ve done nothing illegal, the onus is on contractors to get this stuff right.

The salesmen and agencies who knowingly push contractors into these schemes for a fat commission should be the easiest targets for fines and sanctions IMO.

A big update this time.

The most recent update was on 11 April 2024 with the addition of Acacia Management Services Limited, Alphasaint Limited, Ultra Employment Limited and Worx 4U Limited.

I love how on that page, there are quotes by HMRC saying how they issue market wide guidance on dodgy schemes. Seriously, how often does anyone here see unsolicited publicity direct from HMRC to stay away from dodgy schemes?

Dan Neidle’s looking for anyone who was with PAYE Services Ltd

I think if anyone could send him any information on the other related schemes as well that may prove useful: Elite Management, ComtractorCare and PAYEME.

I have a list from around May ‘23 but it would only take you a bit of work to update it.
