incorrect share classIt’s an easy mistake to make (although we always stress the importance of double-checking formation documents, online or not). You appoint one shareholder with 50 shares worth £1 and another shareholder with 1 share worth £50 therefore accidentally creating 2 share classes. So what should you do in this situation?
