Evening,
Not a post i wanted to make but i really don't know what to do or where to turn.
Back in 2015, my husband and I started a Limited Company where we wanted to be TV installers. We worked 3rd party for John Lewis and Currys installing TVs in people's homes. We were really popular and was constantly called to take on specific jobs because our high quality. A year in it became apparent that we were doing hundreds and hundreds of instals but they just weren't paying after the stores took their cut. I got myself a normal 9-5 job which I'm happy with.
My husband (bless him) didn't want to loose the dream and battled on to make it work, but it just hasn't happened. Our accountants have totally let us down. We've paid them large sums of money to do all of our accounts, but it's become apparent they've missed quarterly fillings with HMRC.
Long story short, they reckon we owe near £9K to HMRC which we refute but if we do owe it, we can't afford it. A lot of customers stopped paying us too and our kindness has also led to our downfall.
While i know i'll probably get judged but does anyone have any advice or tips for me. What we want to do is liquidate the company which in turn would wipe out any existing debts owed. We have Zero assets and don't have any staff which we are responsible for.
