Business Credit Lines Being Cut

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

Greetings Entrepreneurs,

Today I got sad news that my corporate credit card was being cancelled from Advanta Business Card.  The Card had a a 50K limit and it was the card that I issued to key employees for purchasing.  Although we tended to use the card and pay it off monthly I thought about the small business owner that relied on this card exclusively in tough times to meet cash flow needs.

Advanta was a great company and even owned a leasing company which later became Marlin Leasing.  This is their final exit off the business stage and unfortunately might take a few hundred small business’s with them.

I am hearing almost daily on long established lines of credits being cancelled or a minimum being reduced.  Are we all having fun yet?
