Statement

Whilst I am not interested in causing drama or debate or airing dirty laundry the last 48 hours have been challenging on all fronts not to mention the weeks prior. Whilst it may seem insignificant to some and petty to other I feel like I need to address the allegations made and fill in the gaps where vital information has been missing

We have been made aware of a post on LinkedIn and would like to add to it as there seems to be missing information. Kate LIttlefield lost her position within Coolmedia through breach of company confidentiality and malicious threats. All of which came from Kate and her camp and people associated with the Ballers League and her Partner James Caton and Neil Weaver

Kate has received a total amount from Coolmedia of £1911.76 which was the amount owed for her service in July. Kates position was terminated early August through threats of violence made towards myself and family members. Falsely claiming she hasn’t been paid at all is an outright lie and her actions since August 24th have put the company into difficulty. Kate openly stated that in August she hadn’t worked because of stress the delayed payment had and no evidence of work was shown for the entirety of August, no emails sent, no calls made, no meetings sat for Coolmedia, no client spreadsheet updates. As recompense for the threats made to me and my partner and to draw a line under the whole thing we still said payment would be made prior the post.

On the post its also missing the information that Kate was paid in full for July and she only worked a couple of days in August. the company (Coolmedia) lost a couple of clients in July and had a delay in payments from clients through the holidays which made cash flow tight and payments were delayed to staff, however staff were kept up to date on each occasion.

All was in place for August to settle the employees fee however Kate and partner turned up to a Liverpool Network event, and told a half story leaving out the above which in turn lead to more people delaying payments or not fulfilling contracts.

This week we have been working tirelessly putting out fires and delivering work whilst trying to run and host events with the prospect of still paying Kate here 8 days worked for August (still no emails sent, no meetings had, no calls made no work done or evidenced) to bottom out the employee so both parties can move on even taking into account the above. However todays post paints myself and the company in a bad light with missed information.

Ballers League will be notified of the above and will be leaving Tonys number up for all to see.

Kate still hasn’t returned company property in the form of a laptop either – value £400.00

More threats received by James Caton 16:05 on the back of the post over the phone

Jemma Copeland – had commented previously to say she was never paid from Coolmedia and also weighed on on this post too –

The messages she’s relating to…..

Also making claims of non payment – Jemma was taken on a retainer invoice for 5 weeks and in that time she was loaned money from me because she was short having not had a job. A rate was agree for a 4 week period in which time Jemma received 3 payments in total. in the 5 weeks she had claimed to be doing work for the company she had gone to Benidorm for 1 of them, failed to deliver any kind of work other than a data spreadsheet of contacts from her former employment we couldn’t use for data protection reasons. Jemma was given money upfront because of her situation
