Good question! One of our UK business dissolved the other day and we got a letter from the bank that account will close and all funds/moneys\assets will go to "The Crown" (I think)! The lawyer said accounts are dissolved too unless creditors object if you owe them something (like we did) in which case you will be asked to pay it off before winding up! In our case once the business dissolved the account was closed; no further letters nor calls! Then arrived a final CC statement that said thank you for the closing payment (which we didn't make) and that was that! The account still shows up, however, when they log in to the online banking facility but it does not show that final payment as did the paper letter (as far as I know)!

How can I get a guaranteed business loan?
A true business credit card is a line of credit that is taken in the name of the business, under the business' credit. Activity, whether good or bad, is reflected on your business' credit report through D&B and other financial institutions, and the liability for any debts incurred and bills owed is with the business. However, some companies out there offer "business" credit cards which they require a person guarantee for. These institutions will often ask for a personal guarantee, and will almost always ask for a social security number from the person applying for the card. If this is the case, the credit card is not a business credit card, but is simply a personal credit card which is used for the business. The business is not liable for bills and debts - you are. When applying for a credit card for your business, watch out for areas asking for your SSN (and not your TaxID or EIN) and be wary of any credit card that asks for a personal guarantee. By ensuring that your credit card is in the name of your business, you can help to build your business' credit, while avoiding creating problems with your own. Many companies offer a list of credit cards that are issued under the business name only. Those lists typically run $300-$900, depending on the quality of the information inquiring. I would suggest starting your search online via google or yahoo.
