10314The most annoying thing for me is that you know they knew they were goin into admin when they were booking your services.

3179I know, I called the company who we collected from last week as it is them who will be paying the company we did the job for and let them know what had happened.
Hewitt Logistics
3179The company is still listed on compamies website as active and on [business] credit focus with a good credit rating and it seems as though no one had a clue.

3179We had a funny call yesterday for a collection of archive boxes.<br><br>The accountancy firm gave me the collection post code and when I looked it up it was their own premises.<br><br>Are you a debt recovery company by any chance?
Long Services
10314You should've picked em up, then held them to ransom for £900!!!
Hewitt Logistics
3179The thought did cross my mind, Its a different company that called and not the one in administration.<br>
Long Services
10314yeh but it sounds like they're acting for them
Hewitt Logistics
3179I just spoke to them and they are the administrators.<br>

10314If i were you i'd get my foot in the door with the administrators. From my experience (worked for one for over a year) there is always archiving work to be done when a company goes under.

2821Administrators can be worse than printers, they treat each job as a charge against each case, I often got the excuse well theres no money in that case to pay you yet eh?
McDonald Logistics
2821Sorry that was just one administrators, I have others that are spot on
