What were the problems transferring from Abundance? Bank didnt know what P2P was or understand it Didnt know about IFISA Couldnt find Abundance on their system as allowed provider/permitted to accept transfers from (November 16) Expected to receive funds by cheque which P2P lenders cant to provide Once persuaded to provide details to allow electronic transfer, couldnt find the cash Head office ISA dept clueless and had to keep chasing them Took 6 weeks to final get cash into account, fotunately interest payable from application date. No problems from Abundance end, kept me informed throughout Hmmm, I had been planning to pull some money from Abundance in June... Are you comfortable saying which Bank struggled?

Hmmm, I had been planning to pull some money from Abundance in June... Are you comfortable saying which Bank struggled? You should be ok if you just want to make a flexible withdrawal - ilmoro seems to be referring to an ISA transfer to a cash ISA. I suspected myself that this could be a problem for the established banks (although not this much of a problem), so I'll probably transfer directly from Abundance to another P2P platform when the time comes (assuming they don't tempt me to stay with lots of high quality investment opportunities).

Transfers in appear to be available now Thanks ilmoro, I was going to highlight the fee reduction, but you've beat me to it!  Important to highlight that the 0.95% p.a. is all-inclusive and will be applied retrospectively to all Property Crowd investors who put money with us in the previous tax year (i.e. since we launched our IFISA last month). I think it's only fair. Regards, Charles

Funds deposited with us before the new tax year (2017/18), will earn interest from the 6th April 2017. Funds deposited after the 6th April 2017 will accrue interest from the date of deposit. We will credit your account with the interest accrued within 30 days of commencement of such a Crowdstacker investment. If you do not invest your funds deposited, in a Crowdstacker investment, by 5th April 2018, you will not be eligible to earn 3% p.a. interest. We reserve the right to withdraw this interest offer for any new funds deposited with us where we give notice that the interest offer is closing

Not very clear on FCA register exactly what they have permission for - no mention of P2P and no indication of link to KB. Still listed as having IP but says fully authorised and IP permissions expired. FCA usually quick to update so bit confused by this one. Ho hum, cant pass the ID verification anyway.
