If you wish to object to a company being struck off the register, you should take the following steps:
Contact Companies House: You should contact Companies House, which is the registrar of companies in the UK, to express your objection. You can do this by emailing or writing to Companies House, or by calling their contact centre.
Provide reasons for your objection: You should provide Companies House with the reasons for your objection, explaining why you believe the company should not be struck off. For example, you may believe that the company still owes you money, or that it has outstanding legal obligations.
Provide evidence: You should provide Companies House with any evidence to support your objection, such as invoices or legal documents.
Act quickly: You should act quickly as there is a deadline for objections. Companies House will usually send a notice of the proposed strike off to the company’s registered office and to any directors or shareholders. If you wish to object, you should do so within two months of the date of the notice.
Seek legal advice: If you are unsure of your rights or obligations, you may wish to seek legal advice before making an objection. A solicitor or legal adviser can help you to understand the process and the implications of objecting.
It’s important to note that Companies House will only consider objections that are made on legitimate grounds. If you do not have a legitimate reason to object, your objection is likely to be rejected. Companies House will notify you of the outcome of your objection and the next steps in the process.
