I signed up to ReBS a little while ago, but haven't ever invested. So I'm on the "Please send us money..." marketing target list. Fair enough.
I've just had a letter from them. A couple of nice example borrowers mentioned, all the usual good stuff. And a free sample of a pair of gluten-free doughnuts! Except it was all stuffed into a normal DL envelope. These are, now, not a very appetising-looking pair of doughnuts. In fact, I needed to read the letter to figure out what they were...

Most interesting thing was the fact they think their FCA authorisation is imminent. Now 'What's better than a Gluten Free Doughnut?' as the letter asks (immediately answering itself by sending two )? Who wants to run a poll?

This is about as close to any real dough you'll get if you start investing with this lot

It's sounds like ReBs are sending out stress balls disguised as gluten free doughnuts.
