I would like to, but need to submit my tax return first apparently (I only started trading middle of last year). Did you have to do that Ray? It's a pain in the backside as I have just requested a password to submit the return but that's a 7 day wait. Hopefully it will come through within the 7 days as the funds would be useful at the moment. Mine will be for the same as you - refinancing. You'll never borrow unsecured money so cheaply.

This is quite interesting.....how easy is it to apply for? I'm a sole trader.....been tiling for around 12 years and I've found out that I'm legible to apply for the self employed grant on this Thursday.... 14th. This loan sounds quite handy if you can get it as well as the grant. I kinda need the grant to cover my wages to myself for household bills etc....but would fancy the loan for a new van also as mine is 6 years old now. Looked at finance but its a lot more interest so this bounce back sounds like sense. The only other issue I have is the dreaded VAT as I'm not registered. On a new or fairly new van its a few grand to never get back!!

Are other sole trader tilers here VAT registered or not?? I always thought it could cost me a job or two if I registered as I would usually be dearer than other quotes from tilers not registered....and its more damn paperwork to keep up with....

sounds like your mate is refinancing which is best way you can use it to do any thing for your business including giving yourself a wage.

2,5% nominal or effective rate?
here the nominal rate on 25% of the turnover (covid)
is 1.19%, the effective rate I am waiting for the prospectus from the bank.
ps. I have one in progress with a nominal rate of 2.50% 3.06% of effective rate.
and I deduct the interest I pay.
