DELTA TAXIS should not be allowed to escape paying its debts just because it is now operating under a different company name, a shareholder has said.

David Willcocks (pictured) says he invested £17,000 buying into the company in 2006. He left last year, saying he was owed five months’ wages, since repaid on condition he signed a confidentiality agreement.

The 29-year-old was due to take Delta to the Petty Debts Court on 1 April in an effort to recover £5,750 that he claims to have additionally lent to the company to meet its rent arrears.

He now fears he will not see a penny after the company’s managing director said he had sold its assets to another firm.

Delta was this week put into liquidation and former MD Mike Newsom did not contest the order. However, immediately after the hearing he announced that the company would continue trading after a firm called Ashdon Lyme apparently bought its assets a few days earlier.

We had the same down here and in so far as I'm aware its nationwide.

I seriously think there is a secret handshake type of activity going on.

They wont let the local Social Services know they've gone belly up. They'll tell them they've been bought out. Phoenixing must be stopped ASAP.

No licence, so Delta’s successors are off road



DELTA TAXIS’ successor firm is off the road.

This was confirmed over the weekend by former Delta MD Mike Newsom (pictured), who is now the new firm’s operations manager.

Ashdon Lyme Ltd received a letter from the Environment Department late on Friday saying it would not grant a temporary licence and, if it continued trading, it might be breaking the law.

All services were then suspended.

Delta Taxis was liquidated last Tuesday owing thousands but immediately started operating again as Ashdon Lyme.

It is still unclear when Delta assets were sold and when the licence was applied for.
