Payment difficulty

What if I need more time than the arrangement allows?

Recovery does not always run to schedule. If an arrangement is coming to an end but you are not quite ready for full payments, that is manageable — if you flag it early.

Ask before it ends

Contact us before the arrangement runs out, not after. An arrangement we extend by agreement is straightforward; one that simply lapses back to full payments you cannot meet creates fresh arrears.

Extending or re-shaping

Depending on the position, we can extend the arrangement, lower it further, or move to a hardship variation if the difficulty has proved longer-lasting than expected. The cost protections continue throughout.

Keep the conversation open

Needing more time is common and not a failure. What matters is telling us, so we can adjust the plan rather than watch it break.

Flag it early via the contact page and we will re-shape the plan.

We lend only to UK limited companies and LLPs, and the loan is to the company with no director personal guarantee. As business finance outside the consumer-credit regime, it is not covered by the Financial Ombudsman Service or FSCS.
