Shows what I know  I wonder what integrated info we'll be able to glean - borrower t&c's might have some nuggets, better still registering as a borrower

Made the mistake of reading financial news digest this morning whilst eating. Nearly choked on my granola as first item rebs introducing isa tomorrow, whre is that spare 15k, and the clincher, ss rep stated they had " not seen a problem with bots!" Really! Must have significantly cleaned things up or the script users are being canny.

Must have significantly cleaned things up or the script users are being canny. Bots don't have AI yet for the CAPTCHA. Some are using a browser add-on I think, but that still involves humans solving the CAPTCHA. Anyway, this Lendy unified branding all seems very logical now. Quite pleased they didn't go for some Latin name. P.S. What will the new abbreviation be? LF? LE? LY? I guess LY will seem fitting for some.

Looks like they still like us, even if we are an annoying, cantankerous bunch most of the time  First time Ive seen this place referenced in a FAQ The P2P Independent Forum is an online discussion forum, which is popular with more experienced peer-to-peer investors.
While information on a new loan is available in the Loan Particulars, the forum can be a useful independent community for learning what other investors look for.
I confess the FAQ is pretty impressive on first look and there is a ridiculously comprehensive glossary - anyone ever seen Core Plus used (sorry @dnallow we're not in it, not even under PITA) They certainly have been paying attention and some of the Qs look remarkably familar from somewhere (No conspiracy theories OK - they havent given me a job) So the question is do I allow my FAQ to die once the new site launches or is it still useful (needs some updating which Ive held of on pending seeing if the promised FAQ materialised)? Perhaps I should run a poll |

Lendy Ex Saving Stream = LESS? Lendy (Originally Saving Stream) = LOSS Or to give the full rebranding after the default/SM changes: Lendy (Originally Saving Stream) Making Absolutely Knowable Error Regarding Sales.

Sad to see they can afford to hire a marketing "monkey" who publishes weekly drivel, but not afford a question answerer.... I suspect I'll be less interested going forward Hi bobo, thanks for your forum message. By all means drop me a line via savingstream.co.uk/contact (or lendy.co.uk/contact when live) with any questions you may have. P

I had hoped to get a sneak preview of www.lendy.co.uk. It asks for a username and password. Unfortunately, my SS credentials did not work. Guess we'll have to wait 'till next week.
I tried www.lendy.com and found a lighting store in New York!
As you probably sent those credentials over unencrypted http, it might be a good idea to change your actual password.

I use an encrypted VPN tunnel so I'm not too worried about passwords being intercepted.
Yesterday, a couple of hours later after my initial attempt it was possible to log in to the new Lendy site with SS username and password (this was noted in a post from cooling_dude a short while after my initial failure). I did some checking and it appears that the entire SS site has been incorporated with no changes at all so far (except the banner heading).
Today, I cannot log in... the Lendy server wants authentication again.

I tried that myself last week after getting no response to three emails . I'm still waiting for a reply which, by definition would now be irrelevant
