now the bigger question. Why did I faff around following that link; find it needed login/registration; had registrationon failed as already existed; then realised I should try my Times+ login; but I only have the print subscription. And then think: why not pick up the freaking hard copy of the Times that is sitting on my desk ??
The modern world.

Hi LAG members, I hope that we can coordinate on RSM fee to be absolutely not based on time-basis. It should be loan-book basis based recovery amount percentage.

Hi LAG members, I hope that we can coordinate on RSM fee to be absolutely not based on time-basis. It should be loan-book basis based recovery amount percentage. That may put the focus in the wrong place - if for a given case they estimate that for (say) 10 times as much work, they can recover double the amount for investors, they might not bother putting in the extra work if it's a %-based fee, when it's clearly in the interests of all parties for a time-based fee.
I think your comment and the thought process behind it may also be mixing different concepts - provision for funding the wind-down operation of the loan book should already have been properly funded under the regulations that apply to an authorised P2P firm, and this is entirely separate to the administration of and investigation into the past conduct of Lendy Ltd and its key staff.

Picking up on the second point - absolutely correct. The Administrators legal duty is to the Creditors of Lendy. That's not us. We are customers. Not sure how / who funded Lendy itself but probably some bank money, some Private Equity invested as debt and I would guess perhaps the founders provided funds as loans not equity - but they, not us, are the folks the Administrators are acting for.
In practice it may be a little more blurred given the circumstances and if, for instance, we can show some kind of misbehaviour such that (part of) our losses can be claimed back from the estate of the company.
As an aside I've had this arguement with a couple of Platforms who happilly assured me that the Administrators would collect the loan book out if they failed. I didn;t invest with them.
First point second... The deal for the folks collecting the loans - the technical term usually used in loan structures is the "Back-Up Servicer" - should have been agreed as SL75 said, some time ago. I'm willing to bet it's imperfect. It's not impossible that this is also the Administrators with a different hat on though personally I'd be surprised.

On a more general point --- when is the LAG web-site going to be open to sign up? I don't have Facebook nor any inclination to get involved with it.This probably also applies to a significant number of Lendy investors.

The LAG website will be available this week I believe.
We understand the limitations of FB, but have to make sure the website works how it is intended.
Nearly there!

Hi, got the invite e-mail, but where do I place the answer to the "security question"? If you need a hint, it is asking for my first name twice...

Was fine for me. I use Chrome. Try using a different browser and reporting to LAG if it worked.
