Hi,

Any Lendy investors here? How are things progressing? are you still receiving payments since it went bust?

Thanks

Yes one here. I get update emails but there is no sign of my money. See the p2pindependentforum website which also explains about a Facebook led Action Group. As nothing can be done, I'm doing nothing

It’s mostly good news in that it should progress faster than Collateral and the new admins should take less from the recoveries than lendy did...

Should be a report (six week proposal thing) from the admins in a couple of weeks time.

Yes I had about £1200 in there. Thankfully it was mostly reinvested interest so at worst I must have broken even on this one.

The Lendy tax reporting is really bad so I really don't know what to make of the situation. Needless to say I won't be paying much P2P tax this year :roll: .

I saw the writing on the wall for P2P back in 2017 and started moving back into "conventional" stocks and bonds. I feel Hargreaves Lansdown is a better place for me to be stacking my investments, although I got my fingers slightly burned by the Woodford debacle :lol:. Thankfully I bailed after the initial loss (wasn't he heavily in Carillion?).

I still have some money in Funding Secure that I don't know if I'll ever see again.

The key to good P2P returns IMO is to play the secondary markets, but it takes time and also some math/data analysis ability. I'm currently doing a big test over at Bondora, but I've kind of proven it with Rebuilding Society.

Hi,

Any update with the Lendy situation. Is money still being re-paid. Are you able to access it?

Thanks
