lendy pulling reviews like no tommorow. people are expressing their own personal experiences with lendy. TP seems to be a thorn in lendys side.

When the explanation says " The post breaches the rules of the platform"
Is this Lendy's platform rules ?

I'm guessing that these are the rules of the Trustpilot platform. I read some of the ones before they were pulled and I don't remember reading any rude words, so obviously there must be something else that counts for offensive language.

Yes the TRUTH , Lendy seem to know more about TP's rules than they do !

That is probably true.
Some of the reviews were obviously from aggrieved lenders but I am sure there were some that contained a fair assessment that then got canned for breaking a rule somewhere. Perhaps talking about existing loans?
It would be quite funny if there was some kind of template of a review that TP couldn't reject.

They are reporting everything negative as a delaying tactic to remove them from public view for at least 7 days as that’s how long TP takes to get around to looking... My perfectly legitimate review which doesn’t name borrowers etc got flagged once, TP said it was fine based on their rules and it’s been flagged again a few days ago so hasn’t been visible for two weeks now. They are only allowed to flag a review once so I have reported Lendy to Trustpilot for misuse of the “reporting a review” feature. I suggest others read the TP rules for their situations and do the same as I believe Lendy are acting inappropriately here and it can result in warnings and them losing the ability to report... support.trustpilot.com/hc/en-us/articles/217632927-How-do-we-address-company-misuse-of-our-reporting-function- |

And another review bites the dust... Hardly surprising really as it was most defamatory, and said quite optimistically that the review couldn't be pulled down because it was all true. What does puzzle me about these reviews is that whilst they contain an indication of date and/or duration since posting on more recent posts, scrolling back in time has the older ones being posted twenty something hours ago.

We should be using Trustpilot more. For example, if we post a review observing that they're still advising on their PBL199 particulars that the loan is yet to draw down and is offering cashback, then they're either going to have to change it or can't mark the review as incorrect/defamatory

some of lendys reasons for reporting TP reviews. false,unproven,offensive,mis representative,defamatory,etc.lendy tell whoever you are paying to do this to go through your fortnightly BS and loan updates before you dish it out.most of it could be pulled for 1 or more of the above reasons.

I decided to take another look at the TP reviews. On page one, every reviewer who has left a 5-star rating has only left one TP review (whereas most negative reviewers have left several).
From previous posts, it became clear that Ly were using the telephone calls to decide who to invite to review them on TP.
I assume a similar process must have been adopted for the MoneyWise awards?

Lendy been busy last couple of days trying to silence some honest reviews.
Judging by sm, it aint working.
Maybe an honest response rather than trying to get reviews pulled could be the direction to travel?

Lendy have had another five star review this morning although it is somewhat puzzling in its enthusiastic praise. I await Lendy's response to the expressed view that "They seem to becoming more wizened regarding their management of non performing loans."
I'm not sure if the writer was trying to sneak a dig in under the Lendy radar, or if they're not too bright.
Wizened means 'Small and having dry skin with lines in it, especially because of old age'. Suck it up Lendy, on TP you have to take the rough with the smooth.

Is anyone willing to contact FCA or even TrustPilot administration to investigate the fake positive reviews?

Is anyone willing to contact FCA or even TrustPilot administration to investigate the fake positive reviews? Ive never looked at Trust Pilot reviews until recently. From what I gathered, I wouldn't recommend it as a guide to p2p investment strategy.
