HUGE: no way in at 1 Fore ST London EC2Y 9DT
HUGE publishes 1 Fore ST London EC2Y 9DT in London. The team could not get past the door, and nothing outside carried the company's name.
What the team found
HUGE publishes 1 Fore ST London EC2Y 9DT as its office. There was no signage for the company on the building, and the team could not get past the entrance to check a directory or speak to reception.
Because the team could not get inside, the visit is recorded as restricted rather than as proof that the company is absent. Nothing visible from the street connects HUGE to the address.

The picture in EC2Y
19 of the addresses the team has visited sit in the EC2Y postcode district. Across the 18 other visits to EC2Y, the team confirmed an office once, found nothing 9 times and could not get access 8 times.
Others in the same district include Kainos, Lionheart and Mayfair Markets.
Reading the checks together
In short, the building was the one the address names, there was no sign for the company outside and reception could not say either way. No single check settles an outcome on its own, which is why each one is listed above rather than folded into a verdict.
What this outcome means
Access restricted. Building or security restrictions prevented the researcher from completing the planned checks.
A field survey confirms only what was observed at the stated address and time. It does not verify regulatory status, client-money handling, trading conditions or financial strength. The photographs are the team's own, taken at the location on the day, and may be cropped for privacy. Read how surveys are conducted.
