Gaind v Dunbar Assets Plc [2016] EWHC 3187 (Ch), [2016] All ER (D) 89 (Dec)

The applicant had made a personal guarantee in the process of funding a third party company. The court held that the applicant could not rely on the words of an employee of the respondent to the effect that the relevant bank never called in personal guarantees.
