  • can anyone help please

    does anyone know of the best way to find out if a company is no longer trading,have tried all the trading standards no's for our area,but they pass you around the houses then gabble a 0845no at you,grrrrr,have googled and nothing direct for the leicester area,i am loathed to dial 0845no's as you not know how long they keep you on the line,and as we have a virgin package,will work out a big bill ,have had problems with some heating engineeres,finally ageed to do something,came 3 weeks ago,put a bigger rad in at their cost,we agreed to pay for a wireless room stat,the rad fitter left it with us and said the electrician will be along to remove the old one{only 2 years old,had been put in the wrong place opposit a rad in the hall,and their fault}and sort us out with the new one,also change the programer,to a simpler idiot prove one,we paid the engineer the £75 for the stat as was requested,and that was that,we have rung several times but the phone lines are all dead,including the freehphone no,and the check has been cashed in ,i just thought,if there was anyway of finding out if they gone to the wall,it's just 1 small thing to sort,i just want to bang my head on the wall,had enough the laste few months,but all i will end up with,is big lump on me head,sorry for the rant,but am very stressed.

    Have you tried Companies House?

      Companies House will be able to tell you if they've filed for administration, or similar. They're very helpful. You can do a free search on their website for lots of information, then order the paper docs if you need them.

        Hmmmm what a problem. PM me name of company. You can go to the bank and inform them that the cheque was given in good faith but they have diddled you out of money for shoddy workmanship. You can go to the police and ask them aswell. Have you tried Watchdog website, also if the company is registered with City and Guilds, you can ring them and ascertain. Have you any literature, invoices from the company?

        I will try to help but need to know who I need to find

              Above is link to a website which quite often has the landline alternative for those annoying 08... & 09.... numbers. Can save quite a bit of money as most users have free landline calls.

                  thanks for the thought,but not a wine drinker,once in several blue moons,eppecially red,ugh,about the only time i buy white wine is to soak the fruit in for my christmas cakes,whats nice is a drop of whiskey in hot milk,is comforting

                        thanks bubblewrap,i have tried the county hall conections in the phone book,but so far every,what starts out as a different no,always ends up with the 0850,i am loathed to waste money on them,i had an occation to ring bosch 3 times,for something else,and that was the only way to do it,grrr,it works out expensive,especialy when the foults are theirs to start with,so now i will not buy anymore of the product,but back to this one,i will have to wait until monday any way,as places are shut,will see what my current leads come up with,then i will look into yours,thanks,
