aju I suspect the link has been removed (mod edit visible) as it contains referral links & the OP hasn't contacted admin as requested to discuss its status. It is not the Danish site you found.

THX ilmoro, It's interesting looking at that website though that other commenters may have arrived there too. The beefy thingy was the thing that prompted me to mention the site i found.

The person who started this definitely look the same but it may just be a coincidence.

Have I missed something, what is everybody looking at as I can't see a forward link to anything.

I did find a Danish website by someone with a similar name but spelt "Jakob" and sure enough there was some p2p stuff albeit very much in preliminary stages - many links not working etc and Zopa is not even there but if that was the right place to go then I can't really get it working on my chrome browser. All looks a bit of a mess so I'm guessing i'm not in the right place or its not for someone like me perhaps. Translations to english don't always make sense.

Apologies if I'm not meant to be able to see anything or the website that Jacob is referring to has been pulled for now or is not available.

The blog page was very confusing - made me think of the muppets "hurdly gurdly birdly" puppet, sorry can't remember his name. Not sure my Browser translator really worked that well on that page either.

There is a site on there that is called lenndy (not lendy) according to scamadviser its decidedly suspect to say the least - its in lithuania apparently. That said it could be legit but I'd be concerned if it was a suspect one. As someone else pointed out the places are probably not useful to uk lenders at present. To be fair if the site below that I found is jacob then it passes scamadvisor.

Site I found that might be the one jacob mentions

As others have rightly said, it is NOT the same site, but IS by the same person, and yes link was removed. There is a need for a GOOD p2p comparison site, but on reflection this is not it, imv. I think these sites pop up predominantly to harvest referral cash backs. Whilst this is acceptable, like with 4thWay when they say, (and mean) it does nor affect their score rating, I’m not convinced that always holds true, especially when the site fails to mention some market leading sites.

Fixed that for you

. Yes in triplicate - very difficult to moderate on an ipad - I've given up!

I haven't got an ipad but to be honest the number of times i've had a similar problem on my desktop with the quote being mixed up beggars belief. The solution for me when quoteting seems to be to press return a few times so one does not inadvertently back up into the quote and make it impossible to get back down below the quote. One other trick that works on my desktop is to go into the bbcode and add in some space below the quotes - it does require a modicum of html knowledge to get it correct every time though. Not sure if this method works on the tablet although I usually remove the mobile version by going to desktop version in tablet settings, that is chrome rather than opera or whatever the tablet/ipad may be using.

I'm afraid other than that I'm a luddite where toys (oops sorry mobiles/tablets/pads etc) are concerned. Desktop proper tools is where my allegiance lies.

Mind you it is frustrating on my big screen when the text is so big because its primarily been set up for ~~toy~~ tablet use these days. Thank fully in Chrome Browser at least one has CTRL+ and CTRL- to change the screen layout sizing.
