3. The Firm must use its best endeavours to ensure that the 23 individuals whom it has identified as falling within its “red” vulnerability category are not named as defendants in any...
The FCA text states "Ethica must report every payment anyone has made since 2 July 2026 (the date its servicing agreement with W28 began) to the FCA by 16 Nov, and do a vulnerability review of all 5,754 people by 21 Dec".
Nigh on 6000 reviews by Dec 21, good luck with that 👍
I was thinking about this earlier. Attack is the best form of defence.
Do we pull the ultimate UNO Reverse card and all get together and put these clowns through the ringer for misselling such a 'product'!

What I do seem to remember...
Its a bit of a double edged sword sadly. This thread is exceptionally useful and Im truly grateful we have the input we have. The downside is, W28 and Trethowans get to see nearly all of our cards, and we see none of theirs.
They're definitely planning the next move, I hope Dan hasn't given them...
Realistically speaking, what do we expect the next move for W28 to be? Seems we had the pack and nothing else.
They 100% had/have a plan, and that pack was the facilitator to it. I don't get what it achieved, or where it placed them in their mind, but it had to have some significance.
