Why should this development go any different than the vast majority of other Lendy DFLs? Poor IMS'ing of the neighbouring DFL034 so far - doesn't bode well for the ongoing build. If Lendy think they're getting a single penny more out of me then they can go whistle. I would suggest that other lenders don't invest either as a silent message to Lendy re. our trust in them.
It gets used so much, that my Lendy bargepole now resembles a toothpick!
Ha! They haven't had a penny off me since 20th March 2017 but it doesn't seem to have brought them to their knees.

I suppose the only difference between the SS Lendy being torpedoed now or being steered onto the rocks in the future is that the casualty list may be a bit different. Wrong place, wrong time, such is life.

All at Lendy towers must be breathing a collective sigh of relief, but they need to remember that as long as their behaviour warrants being called to account, the opinions of lenders wont stop the media going for them. This is a wake up call, not a free pass.

My understanding of the way that forums work is that anyone who wants to raise a new or somewhat different topic, posts something about it, under a relevant subject title. Anyone who is interested can join in the discussions or simply read them. Anyone who has no interest can ignore them.
Have I missed a bit about being able to complain if I don’t like the topics other people have instigated but can’t think of anything myself?

It fascinates me that you would post here, when by your own admission you have nothing invested. Some times it takes some body out side of all this mess to contribute their opinions.as freedom of speech is a great thing and not every body has the faith that you seem to have that lendy are doing right.in hindsight I wish I had known about this forum well before I gambled a high five figuresort of believing lendys marketing rubbish about borrowers having to pass a 5 stage DD process and secured loans of no more than 70 percent LTVs/GDVs. Yup! Sometimes the most useful view you can get of a problem is from someone who can understand it, but is wholly uninvolved in it. Someone who 'shares your pain', is unlikely to do more than entrench your opinions further.

I assume that in their heart of hearts and in spite of all the bravado, Lendy have themselves pegged as losers in all potential recovery attempts and as Boris J. so aptly said of other matters, they are sailing into battle flying the white flag.

You can always rely on Lendy, they'll let you down every time. Personally I'd rather see some of my money now rather than none of it later.

I was using the 'know where you live' in the generic sense of knowing all about you. I can imagine that getting on the naughty list might reduce any interest they would have in being of assistance to you.

And these people are in control of investors money. While Rome burns, they are trying to stop honest posts on Trustpilot. Appalling company these days. Seems to me they are trying to confirm that they are 'honest posts', not stop them. (Not arguing that Lendy doesn't deserve the reviews they get, just defending the right for any company to determine reviews are from genuine customers.) Esmeralda - if you want your review to stay up, can't you confirm your credentials direct to Lendy? That way there is no need to pass them on to TP, which I wouldn't be too happy about either. Given that Lendy's behaviour is most Trump-like when receiving anything but adulation, it wouldn't be a great stretch of the imagination to be concerned about what personal responses one might get if they knew where you lived.

A complaint to Lendy with eventual escalation to the Ombudsman can be done for free by anyone. Lendy could divulge their negotiating position but that would not be in the interests of lenders in respect to any final agreed resolution. I must say I am fearful that the absence of any information is setting the stage for a truly humongous loss. Everything is pointing towards an unwise premature release of funds to an extremely optimistically valued property in a relatively undesirable Central London location. Divulge negotiating position, really? Every time anyone questions what is going on with anything that appears to be another enormous screw up on Lendy's part, the response is to say that telling you anything will make the sky fall down. Well it might... on them. People who have negotiating positions don't take years over getting on with them. People who are hiding under the bed can do it indefinitely. Smoke, mirrors, copy and paste.

So if you believe Lendy this loan will be repaying by the end of the month which will release a fair chunk of my money left in Lendy.I wait with baited breath Just don't hold your breathe or you'll never see the money. I'm expecting to find the repayment has been Shanghaied on its way back to us and is funding a field of sheds. No doubt the T&C have something that can be spun into authorisation for that to take place.

I am not sure why all you guys are getting so wound up about Trust Pilot, once again it is all speculation about who is doing what. Do yourself a favor and do not even bother to read any of the reviews, after all you say they are all false..... So why bother? Missing the point somewhat! The guys are getting wound up because negative reviews that are recognised as being very representative of all but the fan boys alleged experiences of investing with Lendy are being objected to by Lendy and taken down for them by TP. Meanwhile, five star nonsensical reviews which many assume to be fake are regularly appearing. I'm inclined to think that some are not fake but have been solicited by Lendy from new investors who haven't figured out that getting the interest every month is great but only if it is also accompanied by getting the capital and accrued interest back too.

Trust Pilot's reviews of Trust Pilot are very interesting. At least they seem to be displaying a good number of 1 star reviews (18%). The complaints come from both aggrieved posters of complaints and TP paying customers alike. It seems to be a good approach following removal. link

There's so many holes in this it really is unbelievable. If we get the press involved, publicising that a funder is willing to Lend at least £11m, it will be bound to go for more than that at auction. Could we ask The Telegraph to look at this. Since they ran their first article saying Lendy was a disaster waiting to happen..... things have gotten a whole lot worse. Since I still have a lot of money stuck in Lendy I’m reluctant to purposely invoke any bad publicity on them. I haven’t even left a negative Trust Pilot review yet, but once I get what money I can out, I’m going to leave the Mother of all negative TP reviews for these shysters. My gut feel told me this was coming around April 2017 and I'm really thankful to be mostly out. I have about £4K left in DFLs 005 and 004 and I can live with that, however they pan out. You say that you are reluctant to purposely invoke bad publicity on Lendy while you have money stuck in loans. The implication of that is that once you are out okay, it will be a case of 'Blow you Jack, I'm alright!' to those still in. That raises the question as to why anyone who has just left or is only marginally in, shouldn't get on with raining down devastation on Lendy now, regardless of your present position. As for your Mother of all negative TP reviews... How long do you think that will stay up? I have taken to making a screen capture of them as soon as I see them as they are invariably gone next time I look.
