    Lawyer Monthly misconception

    This is ridiculous and disgusting, the JR they are advertising literally only applies to those who paid loans back in full pre April 2019 and is in no way a fight against the LC itself, it helps @ 0.01 % of those affected by the LC.

    Erm, I don't think this will be successful but any JR win helps everyone doesn't it?

    If in the unlikely event the LC is found to be unlawful as a result of this JR it could be quashed.

      If the loan charge fell over tomorrow, because of a JR or otherwise, it is - and always has been - little more than a "super APN".

      If you have open enquiries, you still need to resolve them, regardless of LC or not.

      One effect of the LC has been to distract many people into thinking that "solving" the LC will mean an end to the problems.

      Many last sight of the overall picture.

      I have no view on what the offer of a JR means nor whether it will work.

      I do however urge you all to look past the LC.

        A 'Super non-refundable APN' at that!!

          All true, but completely unrelated to the original posters claim that "the JR they are advertising literally only applies to those who paid loans back in full pre April 2019 and is in no way a fight against the LC itself, it helps @ 0.01 % of those affected by the LC."

          People need a plan to deal with BOTH the LC and any open inquiries. Looking 'past' the LC is not much use to people who will be bankrupted by it.

            There are a number of people who seem to think that nothing is valid unless it helps them. This JR is to help the people that are in this category and are prepared to fund it. Nothing more. So what the OP is complaining about is neither here nor there.

              If you are still looking for a plan to deal with open enquiries and the LC, you are probably too late.

              Unless you have something already rolling or ready to go before the end of September, other than potentially unlawful actions such as non disclosure, you are going to struggle.

              You should call the various advisers here and see what they can offer. Accepting the fact that every adviser thinks all the other advisers' plans are unworkable (or worse), you need to find a means of judging them to see if one of them fits.

              I'm pretty sure that I'm not aware of all the adviser groups or allegiances, but I will post what I know in a separate thread and perhaps those named can flesh out what they offer.
