Hi Simon,

My experience of Commercial banking is that they are a pain in the rear, once you've got money they will lend you pretty much what you want, but until then, they will almost certainly want some serious security. Don't let them put you off thought!

Obviously not sure what it is you are asking the bank for (ie How much, what you will invest it in etc.) If you want help, I would recommend uploading the plan you took to the bank for some constructive criticism. If you email it to siteadmin [at] taxihypermarket.com I will upload it for you so that anyone can impart their thoughts (if that's what you would like).

Kind regards

Its a test of resolve Simon.

They will not accept your first few Business Plans ............ but thats just because they want to see how you react to failure and how you can adapt yourself to meet the demands of others.

Don't give up .......... I fear you've got a few more hoops to jump through.

Oh and you write your Business Plan ............ don't copy one .......... because you need to know your business plan as well as your suggesting to the bank you know this business.

Simon why dont you just look after yourself and forget about p/h to be honest once you start you will only feed your interest with your own cash and receive very little profit if any at all . maybe you think you will be worth a fortune by starting but in reality you will have to be fortunate.

Always remember this the first big trip in taxis is your ego but you must try to stop it or you will pay the price.

best wishes
