What this means for you

If you are a creditor

Submit your proof of debt to the liquidator. Once liquidation begins, no creditor can start or continue legal action without the court's permission. Unsecured creditors rank after secured and preferential creditors and are usually paid last, often only a portion.

Owed money by a company in liquidation

If you are an employee

Employees are preferential creditors for certain unpaid wages and holiday pay, and may be able to claim from the Redundancy Payments Service if roles are made redundant.

Employee rights and redundancy pay

If you are a customer

Deposits paid are usually unsecured claims. Contracts may be terminated by the liquidator. Contact the liquidator about outstanding work or refunds.

What customers can recover

If you are a supplier

Goods supplied before the liquidation began are an unsecured claim. Check whether any retention-of-title clause lets you identify and recover specific goods.

How retention of title works

Don't be the last to know next time

Most suppliers only find out a customer has failed once it is announced. By then it is too late. Protect monitors every company you sell to and emails you as the warning signs build, well before it becomes official. We can't stop a customer failing, but you'll never be the last to know, and you'll know you did all you could.
