UK Specific - Key Edge asking for voluntary liqidation

This is the old Locksmith business info area and will be broken down to fill in the new sections below.

UK Specific - Key Edge asking for voluntary liqidation

Postby Touchbase » 9 Apr 2007 8:15

Key Edge Ltd.

I dare say many of you will already know that Key Edge are requesting voluntary liquidation.

The meeting is set for the end of the month. Details can be made available to interested parties.

If they owe you money or they ripped you off, attend and put forward your point of view.

On this very forum 2 years ago people were warned off by a few wise men from joining them as branded a con, sad day for all who didnt listen back then.

But, but... They were UK locksmiths! They must have been earning £3000 a day *each* after a two day training course!! How could this happen?!?




:lol: Serves them right.

But its Okay, as it looks like they've restarted under a new name.

Bet if you had a Key edge franchise, you don't get support:

Why is there so much talk of shady crap going on with the locksmith business over there? What in the world is going on in that little island?
If a lock is a puzzle, then its key is the complete picture
