    Assuming the following, what would be my chances:

    1. The debt I have is paid off in full with supporting documentation
    2. I can demonstrate to the bank manager a successful track record over the last 4 years of what I've done
    3. I go with a BFA approved franchise that has over 30 franchisees in the UK all making 6 figures
    3. I have 50% of the capital - 25kGBP


    I ask them to loan me the other 50%/25kGBP?

    Your wanting a lender to trust you with a huge chunk of money when you have 2 defaults on your credit file.

    I can't see it happening myself.

    BTW what's the franchise ?

  • My story is basically

    I have 12 years experience in my consulting field
    In 2011 my girlfriend fell pregnant and we basically had nothing, no house, no assets
    We moved overseas when the baby was 2 months old
    Since then I've saved 50 grand, bought a house, had another baby and have zero debt in the country I'm in
    I've also generated over 4 million dollars in sales from my services in those years

    Basically made some poor choices, rectified them, track record in delivering revenue, putting up some of my own.
  • My question is, do I have a chance? I can present a compelling case to a bank manager so I have a chance or is it an absolute non starter.

    I would go off and earn lots of commission for a year and then do it without a loan. You are a flight risk as well as a defualter which does not look good.

    Bank managers rely on computer says yes/no and normally have no authority to override.

    Why not make an appointment with a business manager at a bank to see?
