STOP PRESS......
Faster Payment scheme to benefit businesses
Under the new "Faster Payments" system banks will now process, Phone, Internet and Standing Order payments within hours rather than days. This means that businesses will no longer need to use CHAPS and can therefore reduce costs. Initially, Faster Payments will usually be limited to £10,000 for immediate payments and £100,000 for standing orders.

We tried it and liked it .... "Meetup"

FastTrack meets monthly and aims to bring together people who are in the early stages of setting up a business with those who are happy to share some tips.
