BTG Begbies Traynor Omdömen 

We recently held our annual finance seminar with Begbies Traynor for the 3rd year.
Gary Lee has presented the red flag statistics which has always been very insightful.

It's disturbing, disappointing and annoying that Begbies Traynor, who were appointed by the courts since Aug/Sept 2023, have been 'dragging their feet' in progressing the CVA that all investors want. Whose interest are they working for? Certainly not FCP investors. It's seems only to line their pockets with fees. How can they justify this? We have nothing to prove.
The only prompt action they have taken is to breach GDPR rules by revealing all the investors details & the amount they invested. This is most likely not a mistake or error as they mentioned before that they would be sending out that information.

I am also a creditor at FCP and I share all of the concerns and criticism being levelled at BT by others here for the disgraceful and self serving way they have handled this issue. As has been mentioned they have dragged their feet while racking up huge fees at the creditors expense. Almost every email deals mainly with their own fees being agreed.

They took ages to release a CVA that will greatly help resolve this matter almost certainly to stay 'on the clock' as long as possible.

Like many others, I was also appalled when they sent out an email with every investors email on it and gave a cursory response to this Data Breach, which if nothing else was extremely incompetent and shows a lack of professionalism.

They present no interest in the people suffering at all. They should be checked out.

I am appalled at the way BT is handling matters with regard to Fortress. They seem to be putting obstacles in the way of this matter coming to a speedy conclusion...not to mention their exorbitant fees. I get the sense this is the primary reason they are involved in these dealings and the interest of the creditors are of secondary importance. I am simply not impressed with their performance...if there was zero rating this is what they would get from me.

I wish I could have put 0 stars!

I am an Investor with Fortress Capital, and I am so disappointed in the way in which BT is handling the case.

They have Breached Data Protection by sending out an email with all the investors email address copied in, and although they tried to recall it, I still have the email with everyone’s email address's.

They sent out information to the other investors which stated the amount of money I had invested, without my permission - which is another Data Breach.

They were rude to me via email, when I challenged them about the above, and brushed my concerns under the carpet.

They have shared the CVA with the Committee and are taking long to share it with the other investors - for no apparent reason!

They take ages to send correspondences to the investors, so we are left not knowing what is going on.

When they do make contact it’s to speak about THEIR fees!

They are meant to be working on behalf of the investors to retrieve their money back, however are not doing so.

The Courts should be made aware of the Power Dynamics which BT are using against less fortunate people.

There really needs to be an investigation completed on BT, as they are not being fair and taking long to release the CVA for our approval.

Frustrated and Disappointed!!!!

We have work with the Begbies Traynor Team for over 18 years. The teams proactive approach to projects and swift replies makes working with Begbies Traynor a pleasure.

I am a Fortress Capital creditor Begbie Traynor have been appointed by the court to administer this case their duty being to negotiate the best terms possible for creditors. I am totally disgusted by the way they are handling this case. Creditors have had just one update since the first meeting in October last year, what we have had is communication from them for increased fees to line their already very full coffers. The CVA proposal was submitted and approved by the credit committee however BT have been stalling and dragging their heels ever since while of course racking up huge fees, there is very little interest in actually helping us the creditors which they are supposed to be doing, makes me wonder what the courts would think if they knew about their greed and behaviour.

Huge thanks to the team here, especially Stephen Berry and Jason Greenhalgh who were one of the sponsors of our corporate event in Liverpool. A very successful collaboration and a pleasure to deal with!

We recently collaborated with Begbies and it couldn't have been smoother. They were professional, efficient and delivered on time! It was also an absolute pleasure corresponding with Dennis from their team and we look forward to working with them again!

A massive thank you to Bai and the Begbies Traynor group who help secure sponsorship for new tracksuits and waterproof tops for my u12 football team in sittingbourne. The whole process was seamless and everyone involved was very helpful. What a great business and a company who like to do their part for the community and the grass root game.

Fantastic company to deal with. We recently had our inaugural CFO Summit, and Julie Palmer, managing partner kindly obliged to come speak to help us get our event off the ground.

Thanks again Julie and Begbies!

We have been working with Begbies for a year or so.
The experience has been seamless and rewarding.

Carry on the good guys

Have been working with Dean Lomas for a few years now and also has great connections and proactive attitude. A great connector of like minds!

I've worked alongside the marketing team with Adam's team for 2 years now, although our businesses have worked together for over 10 years as a strategic partnership.

I can honestly say each member of the team are all highly skilled, proactive and dedicated to the success of the business, yet perhaps more importantly - a great bunch of colleagues to work with - charming, pleasant and extremely professional.

Last week I was lucky enough to complete work experience at Begbies Traynor Group in Manchester.

This work experience enabled me to work closely with the Legal Counsel of the company and deal with any legal issues and general administration work.

I am so grateful for the knowledge and confidence in which this opportunity allowed me to gain.

Ken Patullo recently spoke at one of our events (Chartered Institute of Arbitrators Scottish Branch) and it is clear that he has a great deal of experience and expertise in construction insolvency.

Begbies Traynor is more than just a sponsor for the Red Rose Awards, they're a testament to professionalism and collaboration. Working alongside their team has been nothing short of fantastic. From the very beginning, they've displayed a level of friendliness and enthusiasm that's truly commendable.

I have worked with Begbies for quite a few years now, as a team they are all great, in particular Dave Broadbent who speaks on our training programme and offers excellent advice and knowledge on how accountants can support their clients. He is a great speaker and a really lovely bloke, would definitely recommend reaching out to them for any advice or help.

Our recent collaboration was absolutely excellent! Fast and efficient to work with, quality product and incredibly pleasant to deal with. Look forward to working with you again!

Many thanks to Dennis who gave us some advice and helped with an issue regarding our business. Highly recommended.
