Delta taxis....

THE fate of Delta Taxis will be
decided in court next week.
The company is resisting an attempt by the States to put it into compulsory
liquidation.
Crown Advocate Philip Nicol-Gent told a sitting of the Interlocutory Court
that Delta Taxis (2004) Ltd had £123,000 of judgements against it, including
about £50,000 that was owed in tax and social security contributions. Other
actions were pending.
Delta managing director Mike Newsom (pictured) told the court that he still
believed the company could trade its way out of its predicament.
It had been unable to get legal representation but it had engaged the
services of an accountant to assess its position.
The company would prefer to go into administration but if the accountant
advised that that would not be viable, it would no longer resist the winding up
order.
He asked for the case to be adjourned for two weeks to enable the accountant
to assess the company’s position.
The matter will come before the court again on Tuesday 16 March.I think their days are numbered...

A Royal court order issued yesterday afternoon has put Delta Taxis into liquidation...

So I guess it's no good booking them to pick us up at the harbour when we return from Oz circa 7/8th April - any suggestions anyone - they are the only taxi number I have on my mobile!!!

They are running as normal and will be , have been taken over .

And guess who is going to lose out?The taxpayers of course!

This Newsome character seems to be the Howard Holland of the taxi world - don't pay your tax or insurance, go bust, then carry on trading in a different name!!

It shouldn't be allowed......

CALLS for a boycott of Delta Taxis
are growing after the firm collapsed owing thousands but appears to be trading
as normal.
They are being led by shareholder David Willcocks (pictured), who claims he
put £17,000 into the company in 2006 and says he is also owed £5,750 he lent the
business to pay rent arrears.
A Facebook campaign site now has 100 angry followers and another online site
indicates passengers are unhappy about Delta’s past service.
Posters on thisisguernsey.com are complaining about poor service and rudeness
from Delta staff and many are urging the firm should be shunned until more
details of the buyout and who is behind it are made public.
After Delta was put into compulsory liquidation, former managing director
Mike Newsom claimed that he had sold the company’s assets to Ashdon Lyme Ltd,
ensuring the taxi service would continue as normal.
Mr Willcocks was adamant Delta should not be allowed to walk away from its
debts simply because it is now operating under a different name and has called
for people to stop using it.

The new company has had all its licenses revoked..
