Hi (not sure if this is the right forum)
I run a small business and unfortunately we have hit hard times and will have to close down next month. We have a lot of debts and are at present trying and figuring out how to pay all these.
We have equipment that is leased through one of the major banks and was valued at 17,000 euro, we have paid around 3,000 euro over the last year or two.
Obviously we will not need this equipment when we close.
What should we do, do we try to pay the rest of the money off , we can't really afford to pay it off.
If we stop payments (its direct debit so will be hard to arrange that) will they confiscate the equipment and that will be the end of it.
Or are the goods no good to them and will they try to come after me for the money instead??
I have tried to understand their terms and conditions but it is very confusing and I dont want to call them because then they will know my situation.
I dont want to do a runner but if it is just a simple case of them repossessing the goods (which they technically own), I will try to stop the payments.
What should I do?
Does anyone know the rules regarding leasing?
