Have been merely lurking this last couple of weeks whilst on hols, but nearly spat out my cocktail when I saw the email. The mind boggles somewhat at the order the FCA seem to be going in.. On the other hand I guess Fumbling clowns may be a bit upset that a minnow beat them to it :-D

When was LC application window? If it was one of the early ones it potentially had a full 6 months/year headstart on the big boys who had windows around the middle of the timescale.

I dont care how many gold stars the FCA give them, nothing on earth will tempt me to re-enter this platform.

. . . . and the second in the industry to do so. So if CrowdStacker and LendingWorks are already granted full authorisation, which one isn't P2P? That's assuming you have already discounted Crowd2Fund - not sure why tho'!. I'm not an expert and there may be more small platforms also authorised, so is this another instance of selective counting by LC?

The key bit was that LW & LC were previously on interim, which the other two weren't

Thanks - thought I might have missed something, a subtle difference!
