I am not all that interested in those emails from UB. I am only interested in them winning the court case. If the t*ss*r wins it opens up the probability that others who have defaulted will jump on the bandwagon that will be the end of UB

As with all things legal, time is not of the essence.
I know the borrower has alledged technical breaches of contract by UB, but I never understood what he wanted by way of a remedy. Does anyone know what he is asking for?

Email update received from Unbolted this morning at 11:06... pretty disappointing news Yes certainly disappointing, I wonder if this was down to the ever helpful FCA who you would think would wish to assist. I don't have any knowledge, but even if it is too late or unnecessary at the end of the day, I hope that Unbolted continue to pursue that route in any event as the law can move very slowly, and you never know if it might be needed in the future so maybe a precedent could be useful.

As I understand it agent69, the Borrower has form in stringing out legal proceedings so that they become very costly to fight. His strategy is to get the Lender to balk at the escalating, protracted legal costs and therefore be amenable to negotiating the amount owed downward somewhat, almost certainly to include waiving interest due to date for a starter. Nice piece of work this Borrower.

Nice piece of work this Borrower. Which should lead platforms to rethink who they lend to and maybe bar that kind of people...

It also questions the wisdom of multiple loans to the same borrower.

Surely there is only one way forward.
Unbolted provides a solicitor to represent all involved investors.
This gives a consolidated response to the litigator and reduces risk for all involved.
This brings control back to the platform, negates cost for individual lenders and manages the entire situation.

It seems to me he is either very brave or very stupid to deliberately set out to piss off hundreds of people who he owes money to, none of whom he knows anything about. By the law of averages there's got to be one or two people amongst the lenders who might decide to extract their pound of flesh in a more basic way.

Neither more a bully and conman hiding behind his job.
