I'm a regular investor on ablrate and took my appropriateness tests ages ago when the requirement first arose. From yesterday, I'm being asked to take it again. Is this right and if so why or has there been a glitch on the website? Anyone else experiencing this? LW |

Had the same on LoanPad for 1 year since last clicked (although that was to reconfirm classification, rather than a retest)

I was required to confirm classification and also take a retest on ablrate yesterday.
However today on AC I was only asked to confirm classification but not take a retest, so wondering if an annual retest is a statutory requirement?

Just to re-confirm classification each year. It was a pain to go through the questions again. Abl just need the test for new accounts, aiui.

Curious? Whenever it was that I set my IFISA up (quite soon after they offered the facility) there was a firm requirement to use a different email address from the existing standard a/c. It's not that much of a problem now I've set an email rule to merge the two addresses into a single mail box. LW

Yes, I was told I had to have different email addresses as well. Maybe they've changed it now. Would make things simpler.

The test is valid only for one year. This is a rather meaningless tick-box exercise IMO - I could tick anything and it wouldn't make any difference to how I invest.

LW Agreed - what if I pass one test and fail the other! ? (Also just the one email address for me)

This takes about 2 mins. If it takes much longer P2P's probably not for you.
