As Dave says... you have to register the other card before placing the

You object to them meeting their statutory obligation to run the
business as profitably as possible?

I was shot down in flames, on another forum when I made that observation.
Apparently it's a myth ....


Only to those who wish to believe otherwise, or, to be generous, are not
familiar with the latest legislation. The duty was introduced in the
Companies Act 2006.

Section 172 of the Companies Act 2006 requires a director of a company
to act in the way he considers would be most likely to promote the
success of the company for the benefit of its members as a whole. It
also requires directors to act in the interests of the creditors of the
company. This, effectively, means that the directors have a statutory
duty to run the business as profitably as possible.
