We were forced into liquidation through no fault of our own.

They were all helpful and professional and our position was resolved within six months from start to finish.

Cost effective, quick and efficient. Accommodated my target-timing
Cost effective, quick and efficient - accommodated my very demanding target-timeframe during a period which was obviously extremely busy due to marketplace conditions of that particular time. As self-contained as could be. Regulations did require external professional services to be provided as part of my overall need - however, this was also made as efficient as possible by connecting me into partner organisations. This created yet more efficiencies and cost savings. Excellent. Would recommend.

Thank you for your review! The proposed budget announcements at the end of October did certainly put the pressure on, but we're really pleased to know that the team pulled out all the stops and got this done for you. Thank you.
Supportive and empathetic team
Scott, Jamie and the team were really supportive and empathetic in what is a really stressful time.
They provided clear and pragmatic advice which was gratefully received.

Terrible Communication
Like others, I had a very bad experience with a lack of communication - no replies to emails, telephone messages and I even sent a recorded delivery letter that was never replied to.
One particularly bad situation was when some money was taken from my Business bank account. As you might imagine, I thought my account had been hacked. I left various messages to try to understand if this was connected to the liquidation. I got absolutely no answer to this worrying concern. After some days, the Bank told me that the money was taken by Leading Business which was also confusing as all communication previously been from Simple Liquidation. It was only later, I realised this was the same company.
To this day, I have no idea what happened to money taken from my account (an HMRC VAT refund) and have never had any communication telling whether the liquidation is completed.

Thanks for your comments Stephen, and we are sorry to hear this. Just to note, we would not take money from your bank account and it's likely that if it was to do with an HMRC refund there will be a reason it came to us. However, the team will investigate fully and come back to you privately on the points you've raised. Thank you.

I feel the communication could have been better as it’s such a worrying time going through this. But I appreciate that there were challenges in the change of legislation and staff shortages and now that’s we’ve liquidated I feel calmer. Happy to recommend.

I'm deeply disappointed with the lack of follow-up on my case. Despite providing all the required documents, paying on time, and responding promptly to emails, there has been very little progress. Over the past two years, there have been several changes in the person handling my case, none of whom seem to know what’s going on. Initially, I was told the process would take six months, but here we are, two years later, with no closure. It's already a difficult situation, and the lack of updates is making it even more frustrating.

Many thanks for your comments and I'm sorry to hear you've not had a good experience. In some cases, a longer period of time is required than initially anticipated, in order to complete all of our regulatory obligations to bring a case to it's conclusion, however, I shall investigate the matter and reply to you in full, privately.
Mixed Experience with Lengthy Process
As this was our first experience with this process, we were initially unaware of what to expect or how long it would take. Throughout the journey, there were moments when we felt confident that progress was being made, but at other times, we were left wondering if we were getting our money's worth. While some of the responses we received felt sincere and reassuring, others left us uncertain and doubtful. Ultimately, it took six months before we received the legal papers for signature. We've been informed that finalizing the closure of the company could take longer due to various external factors and parties involved. Could the experience have been better? It’s hard to say with certainty.

Thank you very much for your feedback, it's important that we continue to review and improve our processes, so we appreciate your honesty. A company liquidation is a legal process, and as a regulated industry we do need to ensure that everything is completed correctly, and, whilst occasionally there are factors or details which can slow the process down, we do endeavor to progress each case as quickly as possible and will continue to do so in this instance.

Only 4 stars
Only 4 stars, as this process took a lot longer than I thought it would.
Also, I believe your client communications could be improved.
For example, now it has been completed, rather than reading a note from you about what happens next, I get a request to rate how good you were.
