As a director of a company that cannot pay its Bounce Back Loan your lending bank may be able to help by spreading out your repayments over a longer period or perhaps give you a short payment holiday to give you some breaking space to allow you more time to pay.
In the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic the UK government introduced a range of support measures to help support limited companies through a prolonged and unprecedented period of business interruption.
Bounce Back Loans were one of the support measures introduced back in March 20220 and were available to all UK limited companies. Loans of up to £50,000 were fully backed by the government and no personal guarantees had to be given. Additionally, no payments towards these loans were required for the first twelve months with the government also covering the interest during this time.
Whilst BBLs were a life line to businesses during the height of the pandemic many companies are now facing with having to make payments towards these loans even if their businesses have not fully recovered from the disruption or returned to pre-pandemic levels of trading.
