HSBC BBL name of the echosign document - Limited company & sole traders

Hi all,
I received my echosign document after applying for BBL for my limited company from HSBC, the name on the document was mine instead of my company, so the contract was drawn between me and HSBC instead of my limited company and HSBC. On the original application it clearly states that the loan is applied by my company not me as a person.

What I would like to know from people who received echosign documents both limited companies and sole traders, who was the contract stated to be between, for limited company owners, was it in your name of your company's?

Quite worried so any feedback will be greatly appreciated.

    It sounds like an error by the bank, as unless you are also self employed, you as an individual are not eligible for a BBL.
