Companies House publishes ~4,800 compulsory strike-off notices in The London Gazette under Section 1000 CA 2006.

Automatic Bank Account Freeze

Commercial clearing banks (Barclays, NatWest, Lloyds, HSBC) automatically freeze client bank accounts without warning.

Crown Bona Vacantia Escheat

The Statutory Solution: Section 1000(4) of the Companies Act 2006 empowers you as appointed accountants to lodge an immediate formal objection with the Registrar in Cardiff, suspending dissolution for 3 to 6 months and keeping client bank accounts fully operational while returns are brought up to date.
