I reckon MT have also found this forum pretty helpful! Pretty much all of MT's lender marketing and recruitment to date has come via forum word-of-mouth. How much must that be worth in advertising terms? A few dissenting voices are inevitable and, IMO, also helpful in keeping everyone on their toes...

I have also found this forum very helpful, esp the SS thread.
Agreed, MT are almost instant in their handling of deposits but that is an administrative point only. The real confidence must come with long term trust in valuations, esp when things go wrong. Valuations are what we fall back on.
Every internet discussion forum has its nutcases and no-hopers. This forum is one of the most useful I have used. Long may sharing of DD and other information continue. I can contribute occasionally in areas where I have particular knowledge. Other people do likewise. Everyone benefits.
Ultimately it helps to keep everyone on their toes.

This forum will be the death of P2P. Stop moaning. Your input is irrelevant, my input is irrelevant, Uncle Tom Cobley's input..... It is what it is, people will ALWAYS chase the money. Have a play, spin the wheel and when you are ready to quit, get the hell out and let others take your seat. Didn't you study History at school? It's pathetic really. 'May I ask...?' 'Could you enlighten me....?' 'Could I be so bold as to....?' Sometimes I wonder why Ed bothers. He doesn't need this. Isn't it human nature to protect? Protect your young, your crop, your fledglings, your borders. I think 13%, today, is worth looking after. <removed by mod> I have found the forum a very useful source of INDEPENDENT comment. Its members' ability to question P2P platforms' rose-tinted valuations and harass them for poor customer service (or whatever) is proof that it is not beholden to their interests. Since you mention it, what history taught me at school is that scepticism is essential in uncovering the truth. This forum is the main reason I now have a significant chunk of my savings in P2P, and am alert to the risks I face. On the narrower point of whether Ed merits an occasional probing question: what harm has been done? I have always found MT responsive and helpful, but if others have a point to make, this seems a good place to make it.
