    Denied The Small Business Grant

    Similar happened to me. I had been in occupation since 2017 but didn't tell the council until after March 11th 2020. They ummed and ahhed for a bit but I did get the grant eventually.

    Anyone got the 10k business Rates relief grant yet?

    I emailed my local councillor who was also deputy leader of the council to complain about the delay in getting my loan. It came through very quickly after that. I don't know if that would work for you but it's worth a shot.

    Anyone got the 10k business Rates relief grant yet?

    I have now been in touch with my local councillor and he passed me to someone else higher up in the council who have said that my case has been passed to a senior officer as it is more complicated than the automatic grant that has been processed for people who already had a SBRR account number...

    Very confused over business grants

    Yes, sorry they do contradict themselves. I have been in the property since 2017 but I only applied for small business rates relief two weeks ago. The council have now sent me a letter saying I have small business rates relief since 2017 for the property. However, does the fact that I have...

    Very confused over business grants

    From my understanding there are two types of grant available for businesses -the small business grant fund and the retail, hospitality and leisure grant fund. I have a business property with a rateable value below £15,000 that gets small business rates relief. It is not in the retail...

    Wrong type of premises?

    Isn't there a difference though between the £10,000 grant and the £25,000 grant? In that the £25,000 is only for retail, hospitality and leisure over a certain rateable value and the £10,000 grant is for any small business that gets SBRR regardless of sector?
