Question about business banking

[ajouve]

Hello,

I just opened my ltd company and I have an appointment in two weeks to open my bank account. I know nothing about the legal, can I transfert money form my personal account to my business account ?

I also need an accountant service, I know nothing about accounting and legal, if you know a good one on London tell me

Thanks

Are you introducing capital into the business or loaning the company money?

If the latter, its simple - transfer your money to the business account and record it in your books as a credit to your director loan account.

If this means nothing to you, speak to your accountant.

[Andrew@Wisteria]

Yes, you can introduce money to your company from your personal bank account. The company effectively owes you that money.

I know a decent accountant in London 😉

Loan money to my company will be cool, it looks simple but I really need an accountant.

Thanks both

There is a sticky at the top of this forum about accountant recommendations - have a look in there.

Not sure if all these guys are in London, but if it's a requirement to have a London based accountant we can certainly fit the bill! Plenty of recommendations on my personal LinkedIn profile also.

I know at least one of those accountants will look after opening a bank account, without having to wait 2 weeks for an appointment too...

Yes we can deal with the application and give new clients out a pre-allocated account number and sort code. No need for the client to visit a bank.
