FAQ’s About Business Debt Helpline
What happens if my business is insolvent?
Insolvency occurs when a company cannot pay its debts as they fall due or liabilities outweigh assets.
If your business is insolvent, it’s essential to act quickly to protect your position as a director and explore the available options.
Can my business debts affect me personally?
Limited company directors are generally protected by limited liability.
However, personal guarantees, wrongful trading, or other factors could put your personal assets at risk.
Our advisors will help you understand your obligations and protect your interests.
How to resolve business debts?
Resolving business debts begins with understanding your financial situation and exploring your options.
Business Helpline can guide you through solutions such as creditor negotiations, refinancing, or formal insolvency processes like CVA or liquidation.
Who can I speak to about debt?
You can speak to one of Business Helpline’s expert advisors through our free, 24-hour helpline.
We provide confidential and practical advice tailored to your situation.
How long can you legally be chased for a debt in the UK?
In the UK, most debts are subject to a six-year limitation period, starting from the last acknowledgement or payment.
However, different rules may apply to certain types of debt, so it’s best to seek professional advice.
Is the advice really free?
Yes, Business Helpline’s initial consultations are completely free.
We believe in supporting directors with accessible advice during challenging times.
