But these assets are only expected to realise £132,776.01 – largely due to a £2million inter-company loan being written off as worthless.

According to the liquidators’ report, the loan had been transferred from Taylor Keable Ltd, which is also owned by managing director Robert Taylor.

Among the preferential creditors are the company’s employees, who were owed nearly £17,000 in pay arrears and holiday pay, as well as £1,499.70 in pension contributions.

The Vow group is owed the most money out of all the creditors, at £280,073.51.

Other major creditors were Funding Circle, a peer-to-peer lender, which is owed £226,177.18, and an invoice financing company called Aldermore, which is owed £147,154.18.

The Bank of Scotland is also owed £50,000 for a government-backed coronavirus bounce back loan – the maximum amount that could be claimed under the scheme.

Everything Office also owed HM Revenue and Customs £43,339.24 in unpaid PAYE tax, as well as owing East Suffolk Council £15,180.
