Business loans from the bank.. do you have to be personally credit worthy?

To be successful in getting one or have a very good business plan. i have no county court judgements and have never been declared bankrupt but i am paying back a overdaft owed to halifax. i was working about 3 years ago and became ill and had to leave work. the moment i left my job halifax demanded their overdaft back in one go. i couldn;t pay it back in one go so arranged to pay it back monthly. i have noticed since this time that it has been difficult for me to get credit. i did not know therefore whether a business loan was checked against my own credit rating.. if so then i am stuffed!
