Supplier gone bust - how to find administrator
Discussion

ask the company - they are under an obligation to tell you
This is correct and, further to my Q, are you still supplying services, then, if so, it is more important that you get in touch with the admin team. You may be a key supplier in their attempts to sell the business and the administators will be keen to keep the business going. This happened to me, could not let me pull out so issued a PO number to invoice against and money gurranteed. The sooner you contact them the better but I do not know your circumstances.Slightly off-topic, but maybe relevant as the OP mentions phone lines dead; I listened to a feature on R4 yesterday about telephone firms going bust without notifying their customers and suddenly losing all telephony and comms.
Lots of firms have contracted out their entire comms to private carriers operating on leased BT equipment. One of the firms featured on the programme, whose supplier had gone bust was a taxi firm. Lost its phones, internet, fax, everything. Apparently, even though BT could have you back up and running within a few hours, OFCOM imposes a 10-day period before this can happen. Lots of unhappy companies!

Surprise surprise, got an email from them this morning:
"My apologies for not replying sooner. ABCDesign has gone into administration and has ceased trading. All of our stock and assets, including tooling have been bought by AutoArt Styling.
You can contact André Kruger on info@autoartltd.co.uk or by telephone on 01926 460203, although I understand their phones have not stopped ringing this morning."
Checked with companies house, autoart styling was incorporated last month with original companies daughter as director!
Website, premises etc all the same!

For the future, you can also call these people to get Administrator's details:

Just found it. However, the company I am looking for is being struck off, so no Administrator, so not tested 100%
