How The Figures Add Up?
TheTruthAboutSolitaire contributor ‘Lamby’, brought to our attention yet another Consensus Business Group insurance company called ‘Sonata Insurance Services’.
We have already revealed the ‘links’ amongst Peverel, Solitaire, E&M, County Estate Management – by undertaking a simple ‘Companies House’ lookup, but as revealed yesterday, we also received confirmation of other ‘Peverel Group’ companies.
With this in mind, we thought it would be interesting to bring to your attention some of the figures, that have to be submitted to Companies House, when you are a limited company at year end.
The information we reveal below is freely available for anyone to download from the Companies House website, by searching for the company name or company registration number. Alternatively, we’ll publish links for people to download this information from TheTruthAboutSolitaire – if enough people comment to request it.
First up is Cirrus Communication Systems Limited. In 2007 they turned over £10,447,766 which increased to £13,219,094 in 2008. However, the profit on this turnover after taxation dropped from £987,895 in 2007 to just £56,037 in 2008.
Next is Peverel Limited. In 2007 they turned over £4,193,445, which dramatically increased in 2008 to £10,738,285! The profit on this turnover, following taxation was somehow £793,130,533 (yes that’s right £793million!) in 2007, which dopped to £3,439,700 in 2008.
However, Peverel Limited had Debtors to the value of £602,923,041 in 2008, which we assume was the funding for the acquisition of the company?
Now, the one that we’ve all been waiting for – Kingsborough Insurance Services. In 2007, they turned over £4,331,946, with a profit after tax of £2,640,702 and in 2008, turnover increased to £5,439,241 and profit grew to £6,501,162.
As Kingsborough are acting as a middleman, between Solitaire / Peverel and the broker – it’s clear to see that they are making a lot of money for doing very little.
Peverel OM Limited’s turnover in 2007 was £11,871,102, which increased to £13,025,554 in 2008. Profit after tax was pretty similar, with 2007’s profit being £1,648,565 and 2008’s being £1,653,820.
Estates & Management, are yet to submit the accounts for 2008 as yet, but we can advise that in 2006, turnover was £5,056,460 with a loss of £889,008 after tax. Fortunately, in 2007 things got a little better, with turnover reducing to £4,221,496, but made a profit of £1,582,894 after tax.
Estates & Management recently added Vincent Tchenquiz as a Director.
We also downloaded a report on the Consensus Business Group, however it appears that in 2007, they made a loss of just over one million and in 2008, made a small profit of thirty seven thousand pounds.
Following yesterday’s post, that revealed the names and company registration details of other ‘Peverel’ companies, it is clear to see that the industry is extremely lucrative.
In addition to this, these profits are after taxation on turnover and assets!.
Now, if Peverel / CBG aren’t ‘ripping us off’ as they have told the media – why have they been able to make so much money, if they are not using inter-linked companies to undertake works?

So in 2007 Peverel Limited had a turn-over of around £4.2m, and reported after-tax profits of £793.1m…!!! Can I have the name of their tax advisers…!!! What hope is there, if they can’t even get their figures right, and with such a huge error in the reported numbers (although I expect it will be yet another “administrative error”)…..
Kingsborough Insurance Services, in 2008: turnover of £5.4m, profit of £6.5m. So they somehow seem to have made more money AFTER tax, assuming the figures quoted are correct…??? Which surely they can’t be…???
Cirrus Communication Systems Limited, in 2008: £13.2m turnover, but only £56k profit…??? How can that be? Staff Christmas bonuses must have been low in 2009…???!!! Or perhaps they were very high in 2008…???
And the grand overall picture – over the past couple of years, CBG are making a loss…..
Apart from the obvious discrepancies noted above, something simply does not add up…..

There are number of questions arising out of the accounts submitted to the Companies House, which I have tried to simplify so we can make some sense.
Kingsborough Insurance Services – In 2007, turn over was £4,331,946 which increased to £5,439,241 for 2008 while profit grew after tax from £2,640,702 to £6,501,162.
Kingsborough Insurance Services Accounts
Tax year turn over for 2007: £4,331,946
A profit after tax: £2,640,702
Tax year turn over for 2008: £5,439,241
A profit grew to £6,501,162.
Profit is nearly 200%
Does it match with the turn over which is less then profit as popinted out by Matt.
Was there a gift from Father Christmas or what?
Peverel Om – turn over is also increased but the profits do not match as listed below.
Peverel OM Limited Accounts:
Tax year turn over for 2007: £11,871,102
A profit after tax: £1,648,565
Tax year turn over for 2008: £13,025,554
A profit after tax: £1,653,820
Estate & Management – they have made a lose of £889,008 in 2006 but in 2007 turnover is reduced from £5,056,460 to £4,221,496, however, the loss has converted into profit of £1,582,894
Estates & Management Accounts
Tax year turn over for 2006: £5,056,460
A loss of after tax: £889,008
Tax year turn over for 2007: £4,221,496
A profit after tax: £1,582,894
Is it possible that the auditors are turning blind eye or is there an explanation which I like to know?
In my experience cooperate world is supporting the giant against the little people.
My newly appointed Loss Assessor, Henry Dony, turned against me making impossible to act on my behalf so I fired him. On 2 January 2010, I received court summons for breach of his contact. I have received no formal contact to sign or formal notices for his alleged debt of over £2000.
Is there a hope for people like Nicky Vogg who may die without justice because she is individualist with mind of her own, Asian women of 62 and 5 FT 3 and half inches tall? It appears her “persona” does not fit in the cooperate world. She believes there is only one world, one race and one country. Differences in the human beings are due to cultures, environment and climate.
She seeks Justice as her birth right.

Many Thanks Info – do you, or indeed does anyone have detailed contact info for V.T. at either Consensus or E&M or perhaps his P.A.?
Kindly advise if possible,
Thanks

Hello,
We are the Chelsea Bridge Wharf Residents Association (“CBW”).
Berkeley Homes moved their headquarters into one of the buildings in the complex which we are all told would provide a restaurant, health club and or facilities for the residents benefit. Residents and owners are not allowed a local parking permit as in the original planning Berkeleys was required to provide parking for all the flats. They have claimed 51 of the spaces in the small lot for there offices.
Berkeleys have rebranded our parking lot, calling it PPL, a subsidiary they own and or control, and hired a draconian private company to clamp and ticket residents and owners cars while keeping the extremely excessively over the top ticking fees.
Our complex was built by Berkeley homes and Gross Fine did a very poor job as the property managers until one year ago when Peverels OG were appointed by Berkeleys. This was coincidentally around the same time that Fairhold Artimus purchased the Freeholds from Berkeley homes. We made over 100 requests for detailed financial disclosure dating back to 2005 pertaining to the service charges at CBW back to 2004, we only recently were given these by way of LVT order. We are in the process of an LVT action and would like to have discussions with all owners who have the same or similar issues.

STAT POTENTIA IN CONSENSU ATQUE UNITATE

It appears that Fairhold Artemis are (unsurprisingly) another cog in the Consensus Business Group machine – their registered address is exactly the same as Estates & Management Ltd, who we know are part of Solitaire, therefore part of Peverel, therefore part of Consensus Business Group.
Companies House shows the status of Fairhold Artemis (Company No. 05757088) as “Active – Proposal to Strike off”, and their Nature of Business as “7499 – Non-trading company”.
So, if Fairhold Artemis own the freehold to Chelsea Bridge Wharf, what happens as / when this company formally ceases to be, as appears to be the case…??? Where does the ownership of the freehold go then…??? I’d assume that the Resident’s Association at Chelsea Bridge Wharf are aware of this, but if not perhaps they need to get some answers PDQ….. Which won’t be forthcoming from anybody remotely linked to Peverel / CBG, as we know that they are wholly incapable of providing answers, never mind quickly…..
So, another name to add to the list of companies under the Peverel / CBG banner. With questions against them. No change there, then…..

The problem with this is that all Property Management companies are the same it seems. The Chelsea Bridge Wharf post shows that, as the problems they have existed before they were managed by Peverel, this is nothing new!
