How many users now?

You seem to be a touch cynical in your posts that I read. ā€˜A gangā€™ of investors is exactly what they need. Itā€™s real people, showing their sympathy and support for Freetrade and their attempts to rectify this forced hand.

Isnā€™t that the exact intention of crowdfunding? Turning customers into ambassadors who will fight to defend the companyā€™s integrity where appropriate. Confused as to how this wouldnā€™t make sense to you as an investorā€¦

Trust Pilot rating holding up quite well at 3.8 (T212 3.1 & eToro 1.7 for context)

Latest reviews have brought it down as you can imagine. Will take a while for this to filter out.

In the meantime it needs some love from long term satisfied users on hereā€¦

The review scores will take a beating from hysterical users for sure.
But the communication and transparency from FT was very good.
This incident is 100% recoverable, especially if they have a contingency in place for Monday.

I think it would be a nice gesture to refund the customers who paid for plus and never got to buy their shares. @adam @Viktor

They said they will do that, which is the correct action of course. It will pay in the long term.

Yes, Viktor pretty much confirmed this right away in his initial post. Not just after customers asked about it. Freetrade is class like that.

A free month or their money back should be an option.

It would be amazing to have a contingency in place before US opens on Monday.

Just announced on Twitter that the January subscription will be refunded. Which is the most sensible option. Keeps people on Plus and shows that FT are fair.

CurrencyCloud/Barclays more or less confirmed.
The most annoying thing must be the lack of notice for throttling orders from Barclays. Typical behavior from a big corporation.

Without question. Just allow some time for our engineering team get it done in bulk. It will take a number of days.

Will be interesting to see what FTā€™s go forward position is for this. Ideally dual source and some guarantees that the shitshow we had to deal with today cannot ever be repeated. Ever!
