Business start up loan.

Options
Hi I am about to do a start up on UC as a sole trader. If I get a start up loan does this effect my 'savings' in relation to the threshold for UC?
Self employed sole trader. 
Thanks.

    Business loans do not count as savings.

    For any business, it is wise to have a separate business bank account.
    The comments I post are personal opinion. Always refer to official information sources before relying on internet forums. If you have a problem with any organisation, enter into their official complaints process at the earliest opportunity, as sometimes complaints have to be started within a certain time frame.
  • Yes thanks. I have done this.
