Do you need financial assistance?
If you are struggling financially or are worried about your current financial position and are concerned that you might experience difficulties meeting your financial obligations with P&N Bank, you should contact us as soon as possible.
We understand that sometimes businesses can struggle with cash flow or fall on hard times. We'll do our best to work with you and may be able to offer you financial hardship assistance.
We understand that unexpected or exceptional circumstances can occur such as:
- Unexpected downturn of business
- Weather events
- Adverse economic conditions
- Personal matters impacting business operations
These circumstances can impact your financial situation and your ability to make repayments to your loans and other credit contracts. We are here to help customers experiencing hardship or having genuine difficulty meeting repayments.
Examples of assistance we may be able to provide include, but are not limited to, flexibility or moratorium in meeting your scheduled repayments, or a variation to your loan to amend the repayments you have to make.
