Hi
I'm new to this site, but have read some other posts and am hoping somebody may be able to help.
My partner is a self employed Carpenter. He was recommended to a company by somebody he's worked with previously and completed 11 days labour for this company. The company paid him for 6.5 days, but despite numerous reminders and informing them we would seek a CCJ if payment was not made by today, we have not received the money owed.
I tried to submit a claim online, but I have no address details for the company. The company website provides a telephone number and e-mail address and there is the option to submit an enquiry form, but no address is listed. I have checked Company House and it's not listed on there. The company is run by one person, so I assume he is a sole trader operating under the company name.
We have tried contacting the owner by e-mail and telephone, but he does not answer or respond. We have also tried asking the person who recommended my partner if they know the address, but unfortunately he does not and is no longer working for the company due to a number of issues including payment.
I'm now at a loss as to what to do. My partner is owed £568 net and we provided my partner's CIS card for tax purposes, so he should have paid £142 to HMRC.
Help/advice would be grately received.
Many thanks
Sarah
