Hi people,

So how would i go about attempting to reclaim monies back via the administrator, i take it i dont need to attend the meeting person as this would put me even more out of pocket?

Kind regards,

Jimmy

Jimmy, contact the administrators tomorrow and take it from there.

You'll be able to obtain a full list of creditors 2 days before the meeting date which I think is the 27th of December aint it? So don't know how that will fall and whether it's two working days before.

I would still write to them. Also you could print off above as proof to your credit card company that your claim is true. That may be enough information to satisfy them.

 

[Dan]

Oh yeah well spotted R!

Can you even add yourself as a creditor after that date?

 

[Deleted member 1779]

Not sure but I think from reading it they do say "First Meeting"

Notice is hereby given, as required by Section 98(1) of the Insolvency Act 1986 (as amended), that a First Meeting of Creditors is to take place.

So I assume that its one of many (otherwise they would have put "the" meeting ?? Not being an expert. My advise would be to do both things
1) Write to let them know you have an interest
2) Print it off and send it to your credit card company as proof. If they give you are refund they might take it up themselves with the liquidators.

As a factory we already got burned once when we supplied the original owner of Diamond Training with 20 x Kits of drills and never got paid. I was thinking of submitting the old invoice to the Liquidator but I think I will just walk away from the debt. Cut my losses.

Jim is better protected by consumer credit act, his credit card. We are not protected as a business because the CCA doesnt apply to us so we face a bigger battle. I would still be tempted (if I were Jimmy) to pursue both points above.

Also: Big Shout Out to Liz - Who spotted the publication. Well done GR. I also trawled the net but went in totally the wrong direction even forgetting they were Essex and I was looking under Diamond. You did good !

Well done all with your help on this. I'll get onto them tomorrow.

Hi mate,

I actually used a debit not a credit card, does this make a big difference in what you posted above?

Kind Regards

Jim

 

[Deleted member 1779]

Yes a big difference. One you wont like.

A debit card is like giving someone cash. You are NOT protected. A credit card would have given you protection. I am sorry if it is not the answer you wanted to read.

But in effect by paying on a Debit Card you get no protection.

This does not apply to a Visa Debit card. If its that - you are protected !

 

[jim-meister]

It is indeed visa debit, sorry for coming across as ignorant here but i have been in a situation like this before. What action do i take from here?
Contact my bank and explain the situation and go from there or is there a set procedure i should follow?

Jim

 

[White Room]

I'd give your bank a call and see what they say

 

[jim-meister]

i found this guys for people who paid on credit or visa debit card

Section 75 refunds: Free protection for ALL spending...

 

[Deleted member 1779]

If services you bought with your Visa Debit Card do not materialise, then you should contact the bank who has provided you with your Visa debit card within 120 days, requesting they initiate the chargeback process.

It does not mean you will automatically and immediately get your money back. It will initially become a ‘dispute’ in which the claim will be fully investigated by both banks before any money is returned.

All banks who issue Visa cards have only recently agreed to process chargeback requests, and there is still widespread confusion over what it is and how it works. Therefore if you meet a dead end in your discussions with bank staff, persist. The facility is there for you to take advantage of.

The process is called Visa Debit Chargeback, and, as the name suggests, is a procedure in which the banks will ‘charge back’ the value of the original transaction directly from the supplier’s bank, and pass this amount on to you

And unlike your credit card, which imposes a minimum spend of £100, you can claim back any amount of money.

Ok, ok, I'll let you into my secret. It was 2 google searches. The first one was something along the lines of "how do I find out who the administrators are" and that took me to an informative forum that told people to try the London Gazette. So I googled London Gazette and found their search page. I remembered that Diamond was just a trading style of Essex Tiling so searched for Essex Tiling and up it popped. Very easy thanks to the internet. I wonder how people would have found those details before the marvels of modern technology.
