Re: Lending Stream
Hi SnV,
I hope all is well with you.
I have received a letter from the FOS on Friday in relation to my Lending Stream case.
The letter basically says that my case is awaiting to be assigned to an Ombudsman, it mentions that I will have a response within 6 months and they will keep me updated on the progress of my case.
I guess it is just a waiting game.
Have a good week.
Warmest wishes
Natty

It does however give you breathing space - LS should not pursue you for any payments while the investigation is ongoing, and if they do, then report that also.
As for P2P, well they are in breach of the requirements of them to respond to your complaint, and I doubt you'll hear from them now. Most likely thing now is they will sell the account to the Avarto Group (a bunch of debt collectors), and then we can immediately put them on the back foot too"I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."
The consumer is that sleeping giant.!!

The word debt collectors stresses me out! But I have got this far with your guidance and support. I am sure I can manage another hurdle.
Would P2P really sell my account to a DCA, even though they have sent me an email with their complaints procedure advising they are looking into my case? Mind you that was about 11 weeks ago now and I have not heard a dickie.
Thanks again for for sticking with me. It is now 7 months since I started this thread.

Re: Lending Stream
Natty, if they sell to a debt collector whilst there is an unresolved complaint we have a very good letter to send them. They don't have debt collector on their envelopes.I'm an official AAD Moderator and also a volunteer, here to help make the forum run smoothly.

Re: Lending Stream
Re: Lending Stream"Hi Craigie,
I have ongoing issues with Lending Stream. I am not an expert on this forum, however the advice I would like to pass on is to take onboard everything that SnV advises you. Back in January I was at breaking point, thankfully SnV and the other wonderful people have offered me guidance and support in dealing with Lending Stream.
It it is now 7 months later and I feel much stronger and positive. The Lending Stream issues are still ongoing, but I am in charge, thanks to SnV and the rest of the fantastic people.
If you follow all there advice you will be ok, I am 100% sure of that.
Just to mention that if you do not receive a response right away do not panic. The people that help you give up their valuable time and may be dealing with their own issues, however they will get back to you.

Re: Lending Stream
Natty. I ve been following your thread from the start, it just caught my interest, This website is a sanctuary, no one on here who stays is in debt through deliberate actions, or just don t want to pay what they owe. I have learnt a lot this last couple of years thanks to the support and expertise on here, and I am the "grandma", of an age when you paid what you owe and no questioning. However today especially these people are not genuine, they often take advantage of people who are vulnerable , like ourselves. So they do not deserve our respect or our money. Very often they have already profited on the amount lent in the first couple of months or years.
DCA make me feel sickly, but when they get exposed for their lack of knowledge and greed for money, on here, it strengthens me. They are really quite thick when compared with the knowledge on here. I like to read other peoples threads . it gives me strength whilst waiting for my own problem to be resolved.
You re doing alright and I am sure you will be stronger in any money deals in the future...

Re: Lending Stream
Hi SnV & all,
Just an update! still no news from the Ombudsnan in relation to my LS dispute. I have still not heard from P2P, I guess I am still in the too difficult pile.
I hope you are all well and have a good weekend.
warmest wishes to all
Natty
