Voluntary Liquidation
I gather that most contractors will have received letters about Pedragon going into Voluntary liquidation. A number of contractors at Met Office are affected.Comment

Surprise surprise but for the contractors.
Met Office contractors should also give the Met Office a hard time. The warning signs were there for a long time. I know of someone who gave advice to the Met Office about Pendragon but they chose to ignore it and I think in fact recommended they left if they didn`t want to be employed via Pendragon because that was their preferred supplier despite the issues that had appeared.Last edited by SuperZ; 1 December 2009, 16:25.Comment

Wow just reading this thread, if I wasn't contracting at a govt department currently myself I wouldn't have believed that such incompentency was possible at MO (Mickey MOuse Club?).
So: condolences to those contractors that are going to lose money, but...
a word to those useless gits at Pendragon... 'die screaming motherf*@kers' !!!
The sun sets on another uselsss bunch of cowboys. Brilliant.Comment

Unfortunately PCG Plus has a few limitations. This is from the PCG website:
3. Aggregate Policy Limits
In addition to the individual claim limits, PCG’s policy has an aggregate limit of £500,000 to cover all claims made in any one period of insurance with an aggregate limit per individual agency of £100,000.
Therefore, if an agency was to fail with 50 PCGPlus / PCG OneStop Plus members facing financial loss, then the maximum payout would be £2,000. If the full aggregate limit has been reached, no further claims would be accepted.Comment
