Oh, how nice. Those lovely people at lendingcrowd have sent me an email to tell me that one of my loans, V***o I*****i, has just two more payments until it's fully repaid, so I might like to consider investing in one of the new loans on the PM... <scratches head> Hold on a minute... <logs on for sanity check> Yes, I thought so... My last parts in that loan were sold in October. fertheloveofgawd.

Yeh, bit of a random marketing email. Repayments are equal monthly amounts so why should the last two months make a difference to my (re) investing decision?

I also received the invitation, despite unloading of my last part in November. Is it a coincidence that the IFISA is reported to be launching tomorrow? and presumably the Growth Fund (which seems to be the same underlying investment, but not tax-exempt) which has also had the targeted return reduced to 6% from the original 6.5% offered

The last time that they put up the fees on the SM they said something like they would go bust otherwise. Perhaps they are feeling the crunch again.

I have 6pence in cash and no investments on the platform. Because I decided early on that they were not really up to it, as they continue to prove

The good news is that the SM started to move.
