Title: Phone Call
Post by: Steve_c on June 30, 2012, 11:17:41 am
Yesterday I had a phone call from a company threatening to take me to court to get my company's name removed from companies house as I have set up a dormant limited company to protect the name of my business. The guy said we had identical names and they can't go limited as I have the limited identity.Then in the very next sentence he then wants to negotiate a price to buy my name form me. I think its a wind up or a chancer.

Call his bluff mate. What do you think he is willing to pay? Nothing to lose.
