The latest five star review by one Leonard Dee makes me wonder if the alleged fake Liam Brookes has a cunning plan and more than one fake identity. The review is so outrageously false that it ought to be warning people away. Perhaps someone has thought that rather than complaining about fake reviews, they should plaster TP with fake five star reviews so bizarre that Lendy would be totally discredited. If I have misjudged this I hope I haven't given anyone wild ideas. " Excellent business, been with them since the start and personally have made a LOT of money from my investments. Great returns and incredibly low risk.No losses with Lendy, only gains. Looking forward to a very successful and lucrative future with Lendy; can only see this great company heading in one direction! If you are thinking of joining Lendy I recommend you ignore all the negative reviewers that just want to keep all the good loans for themselves and invest hard and big and then sit back and watch that interest roll in.Gets a 10 from Len"
Brilliant eh? Interestingly this wonderfully glowing and over enthusiastic report has been toned down to a two liner, praising Lendy more simply with the barefaced lies taken out. I guess their new office junior has been told to calm it down a bit. "Recommend to anyone interested, great investment tool, easy to use. Never lost a penny with Lendy." That could probably be written by anyone who'd never invested a penny with Lendy.

A host of new reviews, some critical and other enthusiastic but with disputable content. Interestingly two of the gushing five star reviews rubbish the negative ones and explain that even if Lendy did go bust lenders would still get their money back. No worries there then.

Who writes that S***, is that money back in 5 years time if lucky, very very lucky??? Someone not figuring in Administration costs or even knows what is happening at Collateral with BDO.

Ireland01 obviously wasnt in HQ, all those flat sale deposits that the borrower seems to have managed not to 'refund' to lenders. Yaz obviously hasnt tried to ask Lendy a question.

My guess is that it is the same stooges who've been writing this nonsense all along. It just looks like a management decision to attempt to directly address the wave of one star dire warnings of collapse.

Don't miss the uplifting new 5 star review from Vladimir. This one has me reaching for my wallet.

Wonderful fun spoof 5 star reviews by the meerkat Vladimir and a fun song by Leonard Dee. Very creative.
Lendy will nw have a real dilemma on Monday for their highly experienced and over worked Critical Review Abuse Police when dealing with these 2 reviews which are clearly making fun at the expense of the beloved leader, CEO and founder, so they might want them removed, but they have also added 2 x 5 stars to the score when it comes to upping their appalling "poor" rating.
Trustpilot now carries a clear reality warning [see the right of the opening scree] to anyone reading their Lendy review site (in an attempt to gain some insight into the Lendy operation) as follows: -
"To our knowledge, this company collects reviews by asking its customers to share their experiences on Trustpilot".
Says it all.
What price a 5 star review? How about an 814 day old mouldy unpaid loan underfilled mince pie served on a soiled napkin aboard a rented super yacht impounded near Cowes ?

If the latest one star review posted is genuine, then it should be of concern to everyone, even if it is just an indicator of no more than utter incompetence. The poster claims to have been trying to withdraw uninvested credit for six weeks without success, only receiving promises to get back to him.

The poster claims to have been trying to withdraw uninvested credit for six weeks without success, only receiving promises to get back to him. Much as I am no fan of Lendy in these recent years, I have been making regular large withdrawals (including 20k last week), and have had no issues so far. I think that post must be real sour grapes.
On a separate note, I see Liam posted on TP giving himself/Lendy 3 stars!

Seem to remember that someone else had a similar problem due to not be able to satisfy AML/KYC requirements that Lendy were required to periodically re-verify but couldnt do without the provision of docs so no withdrawals could be made. Seem to remember a lot of to & fro over the provision of the docs requested.
I assume a score is required to post a review so Liam went for neutral, seems logical.

Just posted another review.
Lendy now have an almost unblemished record of 100 percent failure to recover ANY of the old debts. All we get is "Legal proceedings to recover the outstanding capital, accrued interest and bonus accrual are progressing and an update will be provided as and when we are able." - and I notice more and more loans are now going the way of "Administrators have met with .. blah blah .." I've reviewed a load of the valuation reports - for failed loans - interestingly, almost all of them are at LEAST 30% too high, and some a lot more.
I'm keen to look at ways of instigating a class action against Lendy before they manage to bury evidence and slope off with more of lender's cash. It is laughable to see their media coverage of the Cowes week - drinking champers and lounging around on expensive yachts with slim blondes..
The FCA is receiving more and more complaints against them ( I have spoken at length with the FCA ) - I'm also seriously concerned about breaches of the GDPR with Lendy handing out lender data to a bunch of opportunist lawyers. This needs prosecuting as well, and I'm in communication about this to the Information Commissioners office.

Minor point but the details were handed out to 'opportunistic lawyers' due to a court order. Lendy actually argued GDPR against disclosure so I doubt any case to argue there

Mmmm - I'll try to get legal opinion - but hard unless we have full details which you never get from Lendy...
