I have lots of inside information about this company

Why didn't you post it?

1)   Twistfox, on its website case studies page, says that ‘Lifestyle Conservatories approached us to get their brand noticed.....’  The director of Lifestyle Conservatories Ltd is Peter Brian Heath b.May 1971; the sole director of Twistfox Ltd is Peter Brian Heath b. May 1971.  I take it he must have approached himself???

2)   Countrywide Law Ltd was officially dissolved via voluntary strike-off  on 28th Nov 2017

3)   Note that company Office Maid Ltd from same address has a hyphen in its internet site:  www.office-maid.co.uk.  It says it is family-owned and a market leader in its field (although on the same page it misspells the word ‘complement’ plus has a grammatical error).   The claims it makes are impressive – factories, cinemas, airports, schools, etc.  -  especially so when you see the company was not actually incorporated until Feb 2017.  Truly an exceptional ten months for a start-up business.  Throughout its various pages extolling its virtue it uses ‘compliment’ when it clearly means ‘complement’ with an ‘e’; lack of attention to detail always makes me wary.  It says  ‘ ..... with rented property we fully appreciate times money.....’ which is grammatically incorrect (either time is money or time’s money) so, as I say, it makes me wary.  It does say that it specialises in ‘.....Cleaning of stonework, brickwork, masonry and concrete faces.....’.  I know that cleaning of stonework and masonry can be really specialised,  you have only to look at the amount cathedrals spend on specialist cleaning:  such operations include colour measurements, depth profiling, surface roughness tests, use of scanning electron microscopy, determination of the petrology and pH values, porosity and permeability measurements.  I will try and check that Office Maid Ltd really does have these specialists.

Anna, to which company are you referring?

Observations from public domain information:

A)  Guardian Legal Ltd publishes its procedure in the event of a customer wishing to make a complaint as follows:
“If you inform us that the solution is not acceptable, the matter will then be passed to the board of directors for them to independently review. Of course, at any time you can ask for your complaint to be referred to the board of directors. The board of directors will conduct an investigation into your complaint”
  This faudulent paragraph alone is enough to show dishonesty because Guardian Legal Ltd does not have a board of directors, its sole director is Micheal Carter.  I have notified Trading Standards of this.

B)   A forum contributor previously alleged a connection between Heath and Young and Benson (it follows then, and Carter, because he and Benson were together at Indeed Law Ltd).  I don’t know whether there is a connection or not but if you look at the customer complaints procedure on Lifestyle Conservatories Ltd and the customer complaints procedure on Guardian Legal Ltd you will find that, except for the company name, they are word for word identical, down to the last full stop.

C)  Why is the site ‘DigitalOx.co.uk’ so similar to the site ‘twistfox.com’?  Except one shows telephone number 0330 660 0443 and the other 0330 311 2997, plus DigitalOx prose is spelled correctly whereas twistfox has spelling mistakes.   A company registered at Companies House is company no. 10821292:  Digitalox Ltd, Suite 28 Lysaghts Way, Normanby Gateway, Scunthorpe DN15 9YG.  Incorporated 15 Jun 2017.  Reg office  20 Wenlock Rd, London.  Directors Aaron Young and Daniel Young (since resigned). Also has an address of Mercury House, Gainsborough, Lincs DN21 1DY

Thanks for linking these two vendetta blog threads together. Now they can both be easily monitored.

Please check your email KW as I have sent details of seven defendants coming up for trial

William; I’ve also noticed Alana Benson and her “associates” have been charged on fraud related matters and have appeared at York Crown Court

1)   Guardian Legal Ltd:  accounts are shown as ‘Overdue’.  From 8 Aug 2018 has new registered office address of Future Business Centre, London Road, Peterborough PE2 8AN.

2)  Michael Carter is featured in the Mail On Sunday financial section dated Feb 17th 2019 under the headline of “A Guardian Of Your Legal Needs? Hardly ...” by Tony Hetherington, as follows:

‘Mrs M. G. writes:  Mike Carter the director of Guardian Legal Limited came to our house in July 2017 to discuss mirror wills, childrens’ trusts and lasting powers of attorney.   As his office was closed he insisted we pay £3619 by cheque rather than by card the next day.   Subsequently after some research we changed our minds and cancelled within the allowed 14-day cooling-off period.  Guardian Legal said we would be repaid on September 7 2017 but no repayment arrived on that day or any day since.

Reply (by Mr Hetherington)  :  You have had an extraordinary battle to try to get your money back.   You and your husband travelled to Guardian Legal’s head office in Huntingdon only to find that it was not really there.  The address was a maildrop.   You contacted the company’s registered office at Chatteris in Cambridgeshire but that turned out to be just the address of accountants who acted for Guardian.   You sued Guardian and won a court order instructing the company to pay you a total of £4,084.   Yet you have still not received a penny.   What can anyone think when a firm that holds itself out as being part of the legal profession ignores a court order?   On Facebook, Guarian is described as an ‘estate planning solicitor in Huntingdon’.  But it is neither a firm of solicitors nor is it in Huntingdon.   The fact is that Guardian is yet another example of the unregulated legal sector inhabited by firms that carry out work that needs no qualifications.   Anyone can draft a will, a trust deed, or a power of attorney.  They can charge what they like – often far more than someone who is legally qualified.   I contacted Mike Carter last month.   His company currently says on its website that its offices are in Peterborough, but in fact they are ninety miles away in Scunthorpe.   On his own page on the LinkedIn business website Carter says that he lives in Spain where he runs a property firm.  Carter told me ‘We have never portrayed ourselves as being solicitors’.  He cannot change his company’s Facebook page that claims this, because the staff member who had the login details has left.  As for living in Spain, he explained ‘I am surprised you should think I live there’.  He has been back in Britain since 2013, he added.   Yet on LinkedIn, he says he ‘now owns and runs Benimar Villas; and that he lives ‘about thirty minutes South of Alicante’.   Perhaps the staff member who wrote this for him has also quit, taking the login details too.   No matter;  Carter assured me that the acknowledges the debt.   Guardian suffered a huge downturn in its finances, he told me, but has turned things around. ‘I expect the refund to be in place by the end of January’ he said confidently.   Well, you and waited, and the end of January came but the refund did not.   Carter now says ‘The past debts of the company, including the payment to Mr and Mrs G. are part of a Company Voluntary Arrangement currently being arranged.  I had thought this repayment system would have started by the end of January, sadly it has been delayed a few weeks’.   Of course, this is nothing like his pledge to repay you by the end of January.   A CVA is an attempt to keep a company trading when it is insolvent.   It needs creditors owed at least 75 per cent of the company’s debts to agree to be paid in instalments.   Guardian has failed to file accounts that were legally due months ago, so I have not idea has bad its financial situation might be.  But even if creditors do accept a CVA, there is a risk that Guardian will then take on more clients and use their up-front fees to pay off older creditors.   Carter is no stranger to this situation.  He worked for a very similar company called Indeed Law Limited, which went bust two years ago.   Indeed Law itself took over from an earlier company, Direct Law 4U.   In 2015 I reported the collapse of Direct Law 4U and warned that Indeed Law was its successor.  Nothing has changed since then.   The legal merry-go-round continues and the victims continue to fall into the clutches of the overpriced and under-qualified.   Four years ago I wrote ‘ Sooner or later, some official, somewhere, must surely clamp down on this’.  Along with every other consumer in the country I am still waiting;

'Sobs as couple among seven in dock accused of care home fees fraud'
Ex solicitor Jonathan De Vita, his wife Laura and five others appeared at York Crown Court

Jonathan De Vita and wife Laura appeared with five others at York Crown An ex solicitor and his wife were among seven to appear in court yesterday accused of fraud.
Jonathan De Vita, who previously owned De Vita Platt in Barton, comforted his sobbing wife Laura as they stood together in the dock.
The 38-year-old is accused of operating fraudulent trusts, claiming they could avoid care home fees.  Laura, also 38, is accused of concealing the proceeds amounting to more than £28,000.  The couple, of Irwin Road, Blyton, were joined at York Crown Court by Jonathan's ex business partner Christopher Platt, of Roman Way, Caistor, and four others.

Christopher Platt (left) and Jonathan De Vita (right) ran De Vita Platt in Barton .  They are Peter Heath, of Winston Way, Brigg, Andrew Young, of Holme Lane, Bottesford, Alana Benson, of Wentworth Close, Gainsborough, and Robynne Casswell, Gainsborough Road, Corringham, Gainsborough.

All pleaded not guilty to the charges, which relate to their time at three Lincoln-based law firms, except Casswell, 30, who did not enter pleas at this stage.
It is alleged that Benson, 44, Heath, 47, and Young, 47, conspired to defraud customers in York between February 2014 and December 2016.
They face identical charges of making customers falsely believe they needed to purchase their trust products to avoid paying care home fees.
The trio allegedly made customers believe they were fully qualified solicitors, at risk of requiring a care home and needing to purchase their products to "safeguard their estate".
Jonathan De Vita, Casswell and Platt are accused of being "knowingly a party" to fraudulent business activity at White Legal Services Limited, My Will Specialists Limited and Town and Country Law Limited between February 2014 and October 2016.

Jonathan De Vita and Christopher Platt owned De Vita Platt Solicitors in Barton  It is claimed they obtained advanced payment for their asset trust, family trust and family asset trust products, which were misrepresented as preventing assets from being included in local authority care home funding assessments.
Laura De Vita allegedly concealed or disguised £28,123 she knew or suspected were the proceeds of fraud committed by her husband.

All were granted unconditional bail to reappear for a trial at a location and date to be determined.  York Crown Court heard how the trial is expected to last six to eight weeks, require testimony from elderly witnesses and involve 60,000 pages of exhibits

Looks like the mods have been slipping and need to better monitor this idiotic UK vendetta blog thread, put up by people too stupid to understand that this is not their personal blog but is a website to report unknown phone calls.
