Insulhub Isotex Voluntary Liquidation
nickw replied to Surfiejim's topic in Insulated Concrete Formwork (ICF)
1 company has been set up as a dormant company..yes done often for legitimate reasons ie name protection and others , but also dormant are set up for reasons that are for "other" reasons lets say. Google will show scams/tax/ all sorts of stuff that goes on with dormant companies, it really isn't that normal if just setting up a new business. -

Any reason for 2 of my posts being removed that did contain factual information and information in the public domain have been removed? Both relevant to this topic. -

I didn't see anything on the website listed for them under "insolvency" , I would hope it on behalf of the insolvency company? -

For anyone that doesn't know , details are being discussed now on a private facebook page and whatsapp, these are for people that are owed money /in the middle of a build/still trying to use Isotex blocks. A lot of people involved so limited to direct involvement and not for "stories" or other recommendations. -

I'm under the impression that if money is taken for a particular purpose ie blocks and the company then reneges on that contract and uses that money for something entirely different then it is fraud.....maybe someone with legal experience could give their expertise. -

Any chance we can collate how many members have been affected directly with this financially? -

Information for those that were/are thinking of a woodcrete build and haven't paid Insulhub. Durisol will be up and running in the near future as far as I am aware. They will also be making the 380 blocks and addressing the issues of smoother block and size tolerances. I had looked at these originally and only moved onto the isotex ones as they seemed a better finished product. If Durisol does become available soon then this might help out people who are close to deciding but not yet started this route. For clarity I have no connection to Durisol in any way shape or form, however after a very lengthy call to the new owner he managed to answer questions that Jamie never could or did over many calls. I found him refreshingly open and honest on the things that we discussed and appreciate the time he gave up to speak to me. -

Has anyone got anywhere with their bank and claiming money back, or is it the case if paid direct from bank it's def lost? Another question ...was Insulhub licensed by Isotex?, if so might make a difference, I do think we need to push Isotex in Italy on certain things for sure. I doubt we will get anywhere with how they work there/laws but worth the push to get some clear answers. I realise they have offered 45% discount but would be nice if this was just their opening bid..so to speak. -

Lmao , they called me back when they thought it was "new business" , soon as they found out the reality the response was "i'll get Daniel to call you " plus the "we've had some problems with the phones" yeah yeah course you have. -

Update from our experience so far... Paid in 2 parts , 1st Direct from Bank 2nd Credit Card. Credit card has already instigated a chargeback , takes 45 days for them to get a reply from the company ( good luck with that) Credit card company has also opened a section 75 claim , this is unknown at the moment and will be for some time I believe. We will be using the isotex blocks still ( hopefully) subject to taking a financial hit and getting everything organised direct with Isotex. We have asked them some more questions and are awaiting a response. Wont be anything from InsulHub as they owe so much money Most of it in Tax it appears. 38k corp tax, 42k paye and another large tax one aswell. 12 staff , insulhub owes insulhub contracting 68k , Jamie had a directors loan of 67k. So all in all easiest thing for him to do was VL walk away but protect his assets by selling them to insulhub contracting. All of the tax stuff is in the public domain. Andy is on LinkedIn and may respond but with limited info. Getting onto the Insolvency practitioner , well that's interesting , we have emailed but no response, I have called them today and all I get is put on hold listening to "Wilson field pride themselves on high customer service and professionalism, we know your waiting " and then proceed to cut me off after 6 mins of being on hold ....8 times so far. So at the moment I cannot agree with their "hold message" cos I dont really count being cut off 8 times very professional or good customer service. I doubt very much anything will happen other than a fairly standard insolvency case. It just another one of 1000s that happen and sadly people like us walk away F****** over and others walk away with no comeback in reality , free to operate via other limited companies. -

So it seems that we have been lied to from the start. Always promised that our payments were sent to Isotex in Italy and our order would be held over there in their yard as they had the space. Isotex has replied to us today, the same as already previousy posted ...45% discount but also confirming that there is no order for "us" in our name. So Jamie is the Director of Insulhub and is also the Director of Insulhub Contracting which is still active and have submited their accounts recently , insulhub conveniently also sold their vehicles to insulhub Contracting prior to voluntary liquidation for £343k. As far as I'm concerned Jamie Anderson would have know this was going to be happening well in advance and definately before some people had made their recent payments. If the monies were not paid to Isotex then where has it gone? Is this misappropriation of funds or the like , who knows but as a Ltd company not alot will happen I expect other than the insolvency practitioner will get paid first as always and everyone else will get sweet fk all. From previous experience I worked for a company that entered VL status and as an employee we knew well inadvance this was going to happen and I and others made plans accordingly. Ive attached the pdf recieved from Isotex , response and prices. Isotex Response.pdf BLOCKS ON DEMAND SEPTEMBER 2022.pdf STANDARD BLOCKS SEPTEMBER 2022.pdf -
