They have paused it so it wont let you continue for now

also on the instructions yesterday giving on how to invest on CC should’ve made it clear that the investor assesment takes a long time to get approved

I put in a support request, but assuming it was broken created a new account as well. But then they removed the Freetrade listing, so I don’t know if this will be the solution.

You can through the FAQ under Benefits for investors > “What rewards will investors receive?”

I was for ages, then it just took me back to their home page. Appalling if I miss out, already wasted an hour and a half of my day

I’ve managed to invest but I’d be happy for freetrade to re run this. On monzos platform :thinking:

I don’t think early access has much to do with this as it was crashing while it was still private :thinking:

I doubt many people who see it appear on Crowdcube would be fast enough to invest either. It’s just lots of demand within the wider community…

I get “Opportunity is restricted to certain users” message when I try to invest?

Did you also get the message “Error - This opportunity is not accessible for the current user”?

Personally think this could have all been a little less ridic with a 24hr restricted window. The whole 20 minutes thing has just created unnecessary chaos and anger IMHO. It doesn’t surprise me there were tech issues. Good learnings for all I hope…

So disappointing. Did anyone kick the tyres on CC’s infrastructure? Why just 20 “theoretical” minutes pre-public access to existing investors etc? So many lessons I hope you learn, likely all avoidable, frustratingly. Reminds me of sodding Brexit…

Better get some work done.

Is it an option to cancel everything and have a do-over?..

Yes and also had ‘Assessment not completed’ - which was stuck in Limbo for first time CC users.

369

the truth is that it wasn’t truly in private at all
crowdcube notified their users in that “private” time also
freetrade was telling everyone that you can share the link with others and etc
there was nothing private about the 20mins to “open”

I was also saying they should cancel and start over and do it properly. With PROPER early access to actual users.

Yes was a very odd way to do it

Monzo was able to do it so Freetrade could of used the mdoel they did

Bad gateway for a while, now private link doesn’t work. Totally annoying, been trying since 11:45
