RTE Investigates have some great programmes. Tonights looks great!
I don't know to be honest....she has 2 careysfort asset estates companies registered in 2 different jurisdictions... obviously the English registered companies bank a/c was used for some reason obviously to her advantage instead of the Irish registered same company bank a/c
What profession regulator should have been at play here? The PTI program was clear that even though she claimed to be registered as an Accountant and with the Tax Institute, she was not. So I’m not sure what shortcoming you are referring to.
Incidentally, professional regulatory bodies tend not to be make up solely of people from the profession they regulate. They also tend to act a lot swifter than waiting for the Courts or DPP to decide on a sanction.
In fairness to the financial services regulators /Irish Central Bank, as soon as they come across companies acting outside of their remit and entering the territory of financial advice etc they tend to pounce and make it public
Unfortunately this company worked somewhat under the radar and got their clients through word of mouth and cash transactions mostly
It is easy enough in one way for Revenue to take action. She funded her lifestyle on the money whilst living here. There was no income tax, prsi, BIK, etc. paid on that. They will form an estimate on what they think is owed and it is up to her to disprove it.
She has all the money hidden elsewhere. She's no fool. The fact that she's got this far with her dealings is a testament to her and she still hasn't been arrested or confronted.
But how do you know this, was she an employee of the UK company, was she liable for taxation, BIK etc here 🤔 we just don't know .
Still don’t see how being shareholders in a soon to be liquidated/struck off company benefits her clients.
Exactly, all revenue ever say is " we are of the opinion that you owe us XYZ" . So you either pay up or incur more penalties or skip the jurisdiction or prepare do do a bit of porridge.
Who referred all these people to her? I know the programme mentioned a barrister but it's a bit odd.
in other circumstances would the business model actually work.
Tom has €300k mortgage and still owes €200k but is financially distressed.
Toms bank sells the mortgage for €100k
with the sale of the mortgage the business relationship between Tom and his bank ends.
Toms Bank (assuming no interest for simplicity sake) writes off €100k as a bad debt. Tom has already paid if €100k and the mortgage was sold for €100k
the new lender now owns Toms mortgage and only paid €100k for an outstanding debt of €200k
they can decide to :
a) try to recover €200k from Tom and make a nice profit
b) agree with Tom that he only has to pay back €100k (ignore interest for simplicity sake)
am I stupid - or is this a very good business model if done in a very transparent way?
is it not a win-win-win for all involved
This woman's behaviour disgusts me no end!
I can't understand how she could spend all that money from a business account without her accountants requiring some clarification. The bank statement posted by Dempo1 is addressed to the UK company and to its registered (virtual) address. Therefore those bank statements formed part of the accounts. The 2020 unaudited accounts submitted to the UK Companies Office were prepared and submitted by an accountancy firm. Or at least their name has been used on the filing. The company had fixed assets of 63K (the BMW?) and current assets of 54K, possibly the client funds in the bank. The company had 0 employees in that financial year.
I go bonkers when my clients accidentally use their credit card for a personal purchase. The transaction goes to the director loan account if they have one or it forms part of their salary. Why would a large firm sign off on accounts based on such sketchy bank statements?
I'm not a hurling fan so not familiar the family. They have my sympathies. But I am curious to who is Jack Carey who was previously a director and who ceased as a person of significant control in July 2019. He managed to disengage prior to the business starting to "trade".
No, it would be illegal in all circumstances unless the company was registered with the CB, and to do that there are a lot of regulations to comply with.
She is listed as a director so she will be able to respond regarding the status of company employees.
Regardless, Revenue don't need to know this. They will give her a (pretty much non-negotiable) bill and a period of time in which to pay it. It is then up to her to prove her earnings to them. Revenue have huge powers.
Yes but those questions won't be coming from Revenue, they'll be coming from HMRC who, from I can see won't be particularly interested unless she's avoided UK taxes
Jack Carey is her older brother
Living and working here, she is subject to Irish income taxes.
How do you know that she hasn't just totalled all these drawings at the end of the year and filed it in her tax return and paid the tax?!
Not if she's an employee of an English company but again, we just don't know, I'm not entirely sure this notion, Revenue will be getting involved in this, stacks up.
From what I've seen on this Debacle (Take other companies out of the loop) she's ran this entire scam through a UK registered company. HMRC will only have one concern, Tax/Vat liable to the UK government based on turnover, income , not a person in Ireland being scammed.
Wrong thread cawler
Lol , sorry , I'm on the Live line thread also 🤣
From checkmypostcode website:
"N1 7GU is a large user postcode in Hackney. It was first introduced in September 2014.
'Large User' postcodes are allocated to organisations which receive large amounts of post. Unlike standard geographic postcodes, which cover up to 80 addresses, a large user postcode is unique to a single address.
To the best of our knowledge, the current address of this postcode is:
Made Simple Group, 20-22 Wenlock Road, London N1 7GU"
Im also jumping between Threads - welcome back cawler

Involved until 2019! I thought they fell out long before that.
a farrier by trade last time i saw him
She has a brother jack... could be another jack carey
Mighty research going on on this thread. I was compelled to join in myself so I went looking for potential offices for Carey on Wentlock Road in London and came to this exact spot https://goo.gl/maps/oVKBbfAhPiNe2xP6A and Made Simple Group just happens to be a UK Companies Registration and Formation company. So what's the betting that she just happens to be also using their services as a shelf company address and mailbox in the UK, rather than having any actual physical presence there? Obviously no crime in that persae but just another layer of the deception....
From what i can see she is no master criminal, and is clearly mentally unhinged, she's literally stealing and spending and all in public and this behavior has been going even when she worked for the family ? the chick is batshit
