Funding round is normally May time.
Will we have another one? No one knows. The doubt is due to a statement Adam made about moving on from crowdfunding due to our size/growth. However no one knows at this time, so we will see next year.
@adam hinted at a series B during Dec on the forum a few weeks ago. But if that’s crowdfunding or VC who knows?
No a Series B is VC. No such thing as crowdfunding series

I don’t have a clue what’s going on with Freetrades European expansion. I thought it was Ireland and the Netherlands that were first on the roadmap.
Do i get some socks or something?

I was thinking this. Could the move into Sweden be as a result of Series B influence?
I remember Adam on an interview saying he had conducted an interview with someone from Luxembourg- this idea seems to have changed/ gone quiet.
Very interesting.

Loads of exposure in the times today. Also some dirt on a certain competitor

Was reading that earlier. Nice free advert.
Reads like a Press Release. Good work from whoever set it up.

Interestingly I don’t think it’s the best article in the world. It’s not completely accurate and even misses out other information in regards to competitors etc.
I get a 503 error, seems the 11 people who have clicked on your link have overwhelmed it 
More like the rush from Trading 212 to reply in the comments section.

Key part below. This will certainly make T212 users consider whether they have made the right choice with their savings…
“Other low-cost trading services include Trading 212 and Degiro. The latter is not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), which guarantees deposits of up to £85,000 if the firm holding your money fails. Trading 212 also warns that some customer funds may be held in non-UK bank accounts so the FSCS may not apply. Freetrade is fully covered by the FSCS.”
Also the following T212 gem;
“The company, based in Bulgaria, is also not easy to get hold of. It failed to respond to requests for information despite repeated attempts.”
