Untitled[edit]

I have removed an unsourced line about Epos Now being struck off. This is not true at all.

"It has locales in the UK, Ireland, America, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, and Spain." <-- where is the citation? "It provides services to 47,000 retail and hospitality businesses worldwide" <-- citation ? "The company was founded with no external funding." <-- makes no sense, funding must have come from outside the company, even if from a director. Seems irrelevent? "The old copy contains untrue information such as ' During August 2021 notice was issued on companies house stating intent from The Registrar of Companies to strike off and dissolve the company.'" <-- this isn't untrue, it can be seen on companies house. although it is probably irrelevent now, since it has been cancelled.

All of the references/citations seem to come from PR pieces written/paid for by the company. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TomFromOverThere (talk • contribs) 11:54, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Heartmusic678,

I'm not sure I understand what the issues are with the new proposed document. We've completely simplified the copy and used relevant sources. In terms of the awards, these links are already in the copy on Wikipedia, so I'm not sure why they're not being approved now. Can you please advise?

In refence to the Companies House listing, the striking off action is no longer relevant because it was discounted the same month https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/07666961/filing-history Tilliedee5 (talk) 17:38, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
