HSBC - non account holder BBLS bounce back loan

Hello, has anyone had any joy as a sole trader getting a bounce back loan from HSBC without a business account. I use a Halifax personal account for my business and they have not offered the loans.

    Using a personal account for a business almost certainly contravenes their T&C's.   

    Never pay on an estimated bill. Always read and understand your bill

    A lot of small businesses don't have a separate business bank account. The banks know that.

    I thought you already had a loan from NatWest?

    And now people will suffer the consequences of their own attempts to defraud the bank by not paying fees. In order to save themselves money.  
    Going to be a lot of hard lessons experienced in the months ahead.

    I think some were early on, but they were overwhelmed.

    hsbc disgruntled customer who will be taking their business elsewhere. Applied Monday a.m and still no reply, I call them every day and get a different answer to my query of where is this fast loan I was promised by the government? The whole point was fast money to help small businesses, in short this is nothing short of a disgusting performance by hsbc. Why is every other bank throwing money out of the door? We need Martin Lewis to jump on this to help us all out. 
  • I am the director of a small ltd company too applied last Tuesday 5th for the feeder heard nothing keep getting different responses too :(

    I haven't got anything as of yet despite applying on the 1st day. Just have personal account with them and business account elsewhere. Did call but they couldn't provide any updates.
