I thought you couldn't be a director of another company if you'd gone bust, it's unbelievable!
Eddie Mitchel, oh yeh, heard of him! He owns the restaurant down Poole Park now, very nice.

Only if you are disqualified by the court. Quite rare and would have to be something really serious.

The renewable energy installer was sold to Ploughcroft Ltd, which is headed up by the former owner of the business, Chris Hopkins. Mr Hopkins will continue to trade through the new company after having acquired all the company's assets and goodwill.

That is most likely word for word what will of happened, like i say he cares about no one but himself, aslong as he gets his money then so what if the little man loses his house

[moggy1968]

Disolved may not mean bankrupt, he might have just closed them down.

Nice advertorial, as expected being painted as the victim.

I am seriously concerned we are loosing our competitiveness by sticking to our morals. Looks like we are going to have to put our business head on and do what is best for us in the coming months.

lol - thats what i thought - i almost put before the link - dont feel sorry for him.

I heard today that Evo Energy are in the same situation. Yet to find anything on the net about it.

One of the top installers of solar power in the UK, EvoEnergy, has decided to join The Green Deal Finance Company. This comes after they received a £7 million loan from the Department of Energy and Climate Change.

Mr Hopkins said he didn’t know the exact value of the losses that creditors would incur, adding that it is now in the hands of administrators.
that old chestnut again i wonder how many times hes said that? also hes getting publicity which he shouldnt be

 

[dansk]

[matt25]

I hope you guys do bump into him at the next trade fair and let him know, preferably infront of his potential clients, what you think of him

 

[sedgy34]
