One worker told the Daily Post: "I just came in as usual this morning and we were told the news - it was awful, completely unexpected."



In January the firm was the subject of an investigation by the BBC’s Watchdog TV programme wich had heard from many customers who complained about workmanship, customer service, cash-back offers and a high-interest finance agreements.
