Just received this email:
As you will recall we confirmed in the most recent fortnightly update that Lendy expected this loan to repay in full before the end of July based on information and documentation provided to Lendy by the borrower and its legal representatives. Having issued terms, promised a fast completion, issued loan documents, instructed and received readdressing of the valuation and received all searches, the proposed new lender subsequently pulled out of the deal on the basis that it was unable to raise the funds. This was a surprise to all concerned where the funder had previously indicated it was in receipt of sufficient funds to redeem the loan.
Following receipt of this information, the borrower immediately opened up conversations with other lenders to refinance Lendy’s loan and they already have three lenders who have provided terms to provide a gross loan sufficient to repay the outstanding loan in full.
Whilst we are of course disappointed that the loan will not redeem in full this month, this type of occurrence does happen in the secured lending industry. We will therefore continue to closely monitor the loan for the remainder of its term and will provide further updates in relation to the alternative refinance obtained in due course.
Kind regards
The Lendy Team

The Lendy Team A finance company unable to raise the funds??? Highly unlikely to be a reputable company and even a shoddy one would make up any old excuse other than saying "we haven't got the funds to payout" as at that point your reputation has gone forever.
This sounds like (if it is true and probably isn't) another P2P company that offered the loan but didn't get enough interest. Wonder if it was a P2P company from abroad as I'm sure someone on here would have spotted it on a UK platform.

Not Lendy's fault.
I am pleased to see a prompt and good quality communication from them.

Not really too disappointed with this. This loan still has 46 days remaining and I see it as one of the safest loans I currently have. And 3 other potential lenders means there isn't much to worry about at this stage.

Alternative finance fallen through? Who'd have thunk it?

The Lendy Team So, it seems L don't actually know what they have said! That projection was on 6 July, and on 20 they predicted it would be "before maturity in (mid) September". However, it is pleasing to see some plausible rationale included on an update, interestingly the day after I had complained to them about the lack of background regarding the DFL167 vote - although their actual response was meaningless!
Nonetheless, meaningful actions are what is needed overall, so empty promises will be castigated.

God ! What a gullible bunch of persons we are ! They feed us any old fodder and we gobble it up. Wake up people, we have tried to grab huge returns and come well and truly unstuck. Take what ever you can and run, run away as fast as you can, otherwise you will be looking at your balance day in , day out , wondering , will I ever get my money returned ! I`m £20, 000 down with little hope of ever seeing it again, I worked bloody hard to earn that ! If you believe that you are going to see a capital return, then I pity you.

mmm, just talking to my hairdresser re the owner of a sunny loan in a town where wolves dwell and it transpires that's his landlord, of whom he has not much good to report either. Seems this fellow tried to run him down with his range rover last week, due to a contretemps over a footpath. What larks Pip!

Still, I am clinging on to great expectations of some reasonable return from this loan.
