I used to be a shareholder and director in a company that I set up. I disconnected myself from that in 2016 (change of director, transfer of shares and notified Revenue). All was fine when I exited. The company is still trading with new shareholders and directors.
Something popped up last week with the Sheriffs office where they had my details. When I queried this with the Sheriff and Revenue, Revenue told me that there was still a note to say my name was down as trading as the company name. I resolved the issue with the Sheriff (as far as it concerns me) but I'd like to remove the company name from my record in Revenue. The Revenue lady dealing with the Sheriff told me to ring my district office.
When I rang my district office the lady was confused and told me to put it in writing.
I've done that but I was wondering if there was a specific department I could ring or if I could word it better for them to remove all confusion. I'm confused myself. It's not of immediate concern but if the company messes up again, I could do without having to ring around the Sheriff and Revenue. Getting letters from the Sheriff is not a pile of fun.
