The Twists and Turns of the Bounce Back Loan Scheme in 2023 – A Year of BBL Madness in Review – The Best and Worst Bits of the BBL Scheme Over the Last 12 Months

BBL Helpline

As we start to steam into 2024, today I want to take a look at some of the “highlights” of the Bounce Back Loan Scheme in 2023.

As you are probably more than aware, I follow the twists and turns of that scheme quite avidly, as there is always something outrageous uncovered as each day, week, and month passes us by.

Each day I do of course update the website and list anyone and everyone who has been hit with a Bankruptcy Restrictions Order or a Director Disqualification for Bounce Back Loan wrongdoing, and in the following section of the website you will find details of 1800+ wayward Bounce Back Loans uncovered and reported by Insolvency Practitioners and the punishments handed out.

Take a Look > https://mrbounceback.com/category/the-disqualification-files/

However, below you will discover a month by month breakdown of some of, how can I put this, the more juicier or shocking aspects of the BBL Scheme, some of which may have missed.

Keep in mind that one of Mrs Sunak’s “investments” has defaulted on a Bounce Back Loan and her other “investments” have shafted the taxpayer on plenty of other Government backed schemes, and the parents of the Princess of Wales have defaulted on CBILs loan too, so do not be worrying if you cannot afford to repay your BBL, you are not alone, and remember my helpline is available if you want a chat.
