Eldon Street Claim Submission Information
The Joint Administrators applied to Court for permission for Eldon to become a distributing administration. That permission was granted on 24th June 2013, and Eldon now has a formal legal process for agreeing creditors’ claims. Therefore, we have provided a Eldon Street Statement of Claim form which can be downloaded here, and we encourage all creditors to submit their claims in short order. The Administrators request that all claimants use this form for consistency, and all claims should be submitted with full supporting documentation. Please execute your Statement of Claim and upload as a PDF and email to the following address: eldonstreet@lbia-eu.com.
Based on current information, the Administrators are of the view that there are sufficient realisations to allow a first distribution to be made to unsecured creditors. The Administrators have issued a Notice of Proposed Distribution to all known creditors who have not yet proved their debt stating a last date for proving of Friday 30th August 2013. A first dividend will be paid within 2 months of that date to creditors with agreed claims. A copy of the Notice is available here.
