Hey all,
Just after some advice again please. I am waiting for valuers to come out this week to value my restaurant so until then I feel I can't move forward regarding a formal debt agreement. I have had a look at the letter templates on this site and would like to send letters out to all my creditors offering them token payments and asking them to wait for the sale of the business. I have a business bank account with tsb who I also have 6000k o/d, 18k bus loan, 23k pers loan and 13k credit card, I don't want them to shut my account as I use tsb cardnet to accept credit and debit cards in the restaurant.
My questions are:
1) If I send them this letter, do you think they will panic and probably take steps to shut the account.
2) Should I open a new business account with someone else before I even tell tsb, as I am worried that if I tell them they will put something on the credit file so it will be impossible for me to open a new account with someone else!
3) Whatever the business sells for, will I have to give it ALL to creditors? I realise that I have used the credit to fund the business and live on, as the business was making a loss, but what will we live on until hubby and I get jobs? We can't even apply for jobs yet as I don't know when it will sell!
At the moment we have never missed a payment to anyone as we have used credit to pay credit but that is why I realise I need to sell up and actually get a paying job.
Any advice would be appreciated, I love this forum, I kind of feel safe here, sorry if that sounds a bit mushy. [:I]
