I think this may be a different James Bishop as he has a different date of birth:
Inview Visual Communications – August 1977 – James Peter Bishop
OneFinePlay – July 1983 – James Bishop

The registered address is the same, but I can see there are hundreds on commpanies at that virtual address.

OneFinePlay seems to be doing something completely different to Inview VC.

No one wants to go through the expense of doing this and potentially getting nothing back from it.
That’s the advice I’ve had from debt collection companies.

They may be listed as non-trading, but I emailed him a few days ago anonomously, and he responded with suggestions on which products may be used. He’s been listed as non-trading, but has been for a few years, despite continuing to trade and racking up 12 CCJs.

I have just checked this myself and I can see that they now have another 2 CCJ’s so a total of 12.

I started investigating this as I’ve had 3 companies call me talking about them being stung by James. One thing in common with all these calls, were the very creative stories as to why the products haven’t turned up despite paying for them. The continuous promises that things will then be delivered for definite by a certain date has led for installation crews to be booked on site that then end up being unable to do the work. This has been a bigger problem than the amount of money lost, as this also costs money and damages customer relationships. James will just keep on going with the creative stories until you realise that you’re not going to get anywhere.

By the way, they also owe us £432.

Debt collection companies won’t touch this as they’ve already got 12 CCJ’s and using my credit checking software I can see that they haven’t filed accounts for the year ending 30th September 2017 yet, which were due by 30 June 2018. They are also a dormant company in the year to 30th Sept 2016 according to my credit checking company. I don’t know how dormant is defined as they were very much active.

The address that the company uses is 20-22 Wenlock Road, London which is also where a company called Made Simple Group Ltd are registered, and they offer a ‘Registered Office Service’ for many companies for just £50 + vat per year. This means that the company has no assets at that address, so sending in the bailiffs would be pointless. They will then process all your mail and forward if necessary.

All this means that James has been able to keep on going and no-one is prepared to do anything and just accept the loss, as this is the advice given by debt collection companies.
