Rejected petition business bank account credit checks on shareholders censoring accounts

More details

The credit ratings of directors let alone shareholders are not an indication of the soundness of a business. We need to make sure that banks are more open minded concerning credit checks

The sole director of our business has an exemplary credit record. I must point out that it is a very worrying new development for business when start-up companies are censored from a bank account due to the credit rating of its shareholders!
