Absolutely wise and correct decision JamesFrance, which I also immediately made, the FCA cannot be trusted. At all. What a great endorsement eh for a body who is supposed to "Protect Consumers", the FCA is a very dangerous and incompetent joke. |

As I occasionally point out on here, possessing Dual Nationality, it's a Win for me whichever way it goes .....................  However, Dear Fellow Forumites, see if you're getting value from your mind reading lessons, do you think I am more happy with a Kangaroo Win??  |

Y'all can just roll over and take it if you wish.
Or DO something, and expose it for the racket it is.
The "justifications" on here make me laugh.

Y'all need to put pen to paper, write and complain to RICS about their so called "Professional Valuations" (for what THAT's worth ) but, more importantly, the media, your MP, etc, and kick up a massive STINK - the entire scandal needs to be outed. |

I'm afraid I have to agree and even a 20% return may look optimistic by the time it all wraps up. I made a similar prediction a long time back not only about Lendy but several other P2P lenders as well that had or were about to fold. Lenders (me included) put far too much faith in the supposed RICS valuations when the loans were first launched. Trouble was these valuations turned out to be not worth the paper they were written on - surprise, surprise. Then when you add in a good does of dishonesty on the part of the provider, none of us stood a chance of really recovering all our investments and as for the interest - well! The only real question left to ask was "where the F**k were the people how licenced these crooks?

Mousey, I can't see any connection between the gentlemen concerned and Collateral, am I missing something?

The update will come I am certain of that since it has now been mentioned by several separate contacts both inside the FCA and from outside .......... but just when it will arrive I have no precise idea, only the FCA know that. The update will come after yet another internal review with professional can kicking and the individuals responsible, who of course will never be named, are promoted and/or have moved on.
My opinion, but the FCA tend to be staffed by failures from the commercial sector.
Anyway, thanks for all your help in this duck - it must at times be a highly frustrating 'project'. Nonetheless your efforts and those of your helpers are highly appreciated I'm sure by all of us that got done over, robbed, conned, lost money trusted to a couple of c***ks. One syllable too many bugs4me, and ends in "ts". 😉

Having worked in "Financial Services" for five years, ending 1999, nothing whatsoever has changed, so yes, you are 100% correct Sir!

If you want to criticise Social Services in general, its management, local governments' piss poor management, central governments piss poor management etc then I'd be be right there with you. If you want to reject out of hand the idea that underinvestment / lack of resourcing contributes to poorly trained overworked and demoralised staff (including management), and that this in turn is part of the problem, then I'm afraid we'll have to disagree. It's never not been a problem. And whilst I agree that what some might label "woke" policies contributed to problems like those seen in Rotherham the fact is that we saw failings in the provision of child care / health / safety / protection long before anybody even knew "woke" was a concept. The NSPCC was founded in 1884. I'm pretty sure there wasn't much of a "woke agenda" back then!So why are the failings getting demonstrably worse? To me, there is a crystal clear and permeating "attitude" problem, so, yep, we disagree.  "It's the Tory Cuts!"

Unfortunately, "underinvestment" isn't remotely a reason why numerous followups in numerous numbers of "Social Services" cases have resulted in nothing ever being done?

I'd imagine that underinvestment was more of a problem than any "woke" agenda. Personally, I don't buy that, at all. There have been numerous followups in numerous numbers of "Social Services" cases, where nothing is/was ever done, and "underinvestment" isn't anywhere near the reason, it's the "attitude", IMHO.

What about the child's father, where was he? I would find him equally guilty by being totally oblivious, or turning a blind eye. It was his son and he should have protected him. That poor little soul, it makes you weep. But my question is where were the police and social services? After the number of reports of bruises and other worries being reported by concerned family members, where were the follow ups? One visit from each service and that was the end of it? Something stinks here and heads need to roll. The inevitable end results of decades of very successful and blindly applied Politically Correct Woke Brainwashing? Same reasons as to why the Rotherham and numerous other grooming gangs flourished for so long, and still flourish? Allegedly.
