Yes the U/P would have been paid were it not for the DRO, but because of the DRO it was not paid as there is no charge upon which to pay.
In logical terms I see merit in the customer receiving the money, but that then goes completely against the fact that they have no charge so to pay the rent a/c would see a huge credit.
Are there any regulations regarding this? All I can see is the Insolvency Act regs for DRO which makes no mention of U/P's of benefit, specifically HB that is dependant on liability for rent.
Thanks,
