Taxi Driver Online

I couldn't agree more, but it's always the good regular people like ourselves who get shafted, and the people who run the shi**y business walk away relatively unscathed.

as predicted fraser eagle today have gone into adminstration ,announced on local news granada reports ,i wonder how many taxi firms / drivers they will take under with them

reports suggest they use £1.5 million quids worth of cabs per month.....makes that 'elite' mob look like angels....and they were robbing b*stards

This company has filed for insolvency in February of this year leaving the cabbies at Northampton station short by £3000+ for December/January, what a lot of "to_ _ers

Does any one out there have any horror stories aout London Midland Railways?

at crewe the sum is £20,000 +

Welcome to the wonderful world of getting stitched by Ltd companies

and companies house seem unable to do a thing (or dont want to)

i got taken in this manner almost 2 years ago, the wife had to stop me doing something rash, as beheading the bstards was my first thought.

i paid all my trade debts, no supplier (of services) lost out, cant say the same for a few financial institutions but since then i think theyve had far worse to deal with.

it taught me a few valuable lessons..........a bit late though

never again

well its beyond belief ,fraser eagle go bump and out of the ashes rise Connect Point UK Ltd who have the same address as fraser eagle and the same man at the helm ,the cheeky sods have made contact asking if we would do there work as they noticed we did fraser eagle work ,who are they trying to kid ,they know we did because
Connect Point UK Ltd is fraser eagle in disguise and they also know that were owed thousands by fraser eagle so they have no chance of me doing there work ,why do virgin trains allow these scam merchants to operate there station ranks ,so guys if your owed by fraser eagle and
Connect Point UK Ltd contact you be aware of the situation and who they are ,if any of you guys have done work for
Connect Point UK Ltd how are they paying you

I think it will be 'up front!'

Thanks for informing us of this latest developement no doubt it requires further investigation and an explanation from virgin why they are using this company who it would appear are a reincarnation of Fraser Eagle.

Regards

JD

Fraser Eagle boss has a new firm (From Lancashire Telegraph)

THE former boss of Fraser Eagle is heading up a new firm.

Kevin Dean, who was managing director of the Padiham travel firm when it went into administration last week, is now at the helm of Connect Point UK Ltd.

According to Companies House, the firm was known as Fraser Eagle Business Solutions until its name was changed on February 18.

But this part of the Fraser Eagle business was not taken into administration.Mr Dean is listed as a sole director of the firm.

According to documents from Companies House, Connect Point UK’s registered office is Pendle Court, Shuttleworth Mead Business Park, Padiham – the former home of Fraser Eagle.

But when the Lancashire Telegraph went to Pendle Court the offices were locked up.Fraser Eagle Ltd is now listed as being under the stewardship of Manchester-based Baker Tilly Restructuring and Recovery LLP.

The administrators axed the 120-strong workforce last week and is looking to split the firm up and sell it off.

A spokesman for Baker Tilly also said that, as a normal part of the administration process, a report was being compiled into the actions of directors and would be presented to the Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform within the next six months.

He also revealed that it was looking to sell some of Fraser Eagle’s former buildings at Burnley.Mr Dean could not be contacted for comment.

I suppose this news is refreshing for the 1500 companies they owe money to

ffs

I blame virgin trains
