The Disqualification Files

This section of the website looks in detail at everyone given a Director Ban or a Bankruptcy Restrictions Order for Bounce Back Loan related wrongdoing, along with full details of what each person did, and occasionally other wrongdoing that resulted in a defaulted BBL.

The Insolvency Service recently said: “We expect to see a reduction in Covid Scheme related outcomes during 25/26 as we work through the pool of Bounce Back Loan cases”.

They have also warned that a BBL must be repaid and if the money your company borrowed is not repaid; your company may be investigated by the Insolvency Service, even if it has been dissolved.

If we find there was misconduct in the use of the BBL, action may be taken against you and your company.

Types of misconduct can include, providing false information on loan application, the loan being used for personal benefit and/or dissolving your company to avoid repaying the loan

As a result of the misconduct your company could be wound up by the Court, you could be disqualified as a director, and a Court Order may be made for you to pay compensation.
