Sorry to be a bore guys but yet again....

.. if you type Mislex (numerical suffix) Ltd into the companies house website then tick "previous names" you will find lots of exciting companies to peruse at your leisure....

Alicia, it's completely normal for the company to have had a previous name like Mislex 444.
In fact, I work for a company with a similar previous name. The company is completely legitimate.

The previous name is simply because the company was purchased from a companies formation agent. For example, http://www.incorporateonline.co.uk/ claim to form a company in 3 hours. The only way that is possible is for them to have created the company in advance and then rename it.

Dear Westminster City Council,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Westminster City Council's handling of my FOI request 'Mislex (444) Ltd'.

I do not agree with your response that my request would incur aggregated costs in excess of those allowed under the FOI.

Furthermore I am of the opinion that you are deliberately not taking my requests seriously which is contrary to ICO guidelines:

From the ICO:
http://www.ico.gov.uk/upload/documents/l...
(p2)

"The ICO has emphasised the importance of clear and fully explained refusal notices. A poor notice that does not fully explain an authority’s decision may indicate that a request has not been dealt
with seriously"

I believe that my requests have been incorrectly turned down based on incorrect interpretation of the legislation and that official Code of Conduct, guidance and best practices have not been followed.

I therefore formally request that you review the decision to withhold the information and disclose the requested information without further delay.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address:

Yours faithfully,

Alicia
