Lloyds accused of failing small firms as it cut lending - BBC Business

Quick Summary:

Business owners have told the BBC their businesses collapsed, blaming the bank's treatment.

Keith didn't want to sell the business or let Lloyds take a stake, but by December the bank called in its loans and Keith's business collapsed, with PwC paid to oversee the breakup.

Keith said Lloyds described his company as "robust" and said it was wrong to blame its failure on his spending.
