@ThatPersian I remember thinking the day he was put in charge that it seemed weird.We all knew how he had engaged on here and I wondered was it to time to go.Wish I had but thought there must have been a plan. Blinded by the concept and a bit of greed I guess. Still angry everyday.
@FiUlster@HowGoodisWeed So true and I feel this point constantly gets lost - there were loads of losing bets, we all had some of them but "the mugs thought they were all winning forever narrative" is easier.
@FIjusticeseeker@NadineDorries Totally agree and it was blatantly just wrong - particularly when you add in the frequency and level of promotions to incentivise deposits in March / April 2020 while the regulator knew it wasn’t sustainable.
@FI_DuncanB This is such an important point - there were lots of losing bets that should have been paying for the winners. These have been forgotten at times and casual observers could be forgiven for thinking we only had winning bets in our crazy pyramid scheme. Which was not the case.
Still casts a shadow over every day and I don’t want to admit how much it still dominates my thoughts. I have taken responsibility for my actions but they should feel bad today as well. It should have been a glorious day for the platform instead of this mess. #footballindex
@TomMolyneux66 Tom, you have captured exactly how this feels, particularly the feeling of guilt and having messed up and this is the thing that stings everyday. I hope it gets better and easier to deal with as the days go by for you. This is what I am trying to tell myself. All the best.
@FItrader11 @andrewjonrhodes no update at all since this, we dont know if this is progressing as planned or if there have been any other developments. FI always liked announcements about announcements and then delays to everything but this is ridiculous at this point.
@ovo_fi Im in a very similar place, constantly on my mind still even though I have tried to move on. I hoped it would pass over time but not getting any easier. Need to try and focus on the good things and hope you are managing to do the same.
@alli2106 Try and stay strong Joe, things will get better with time. I have created problems for myself as well. I feel terrible for getting caught out with FI. I think I have learned not to rush looking for quick fixes. But hindsight is easy and we were only trying to do our best.
I am sure we are all frustrated at some of our big holds doing good things at the euros.But I am also sure we all had a few that we got wrong. These were the ones where FI won and should have been used to keep paying out the winners. But they had a different plan. #footballindex
I have assumed a large sum of money is lost and any back will be a bonus. I’ve written to MP and am trying to be patient. But getting harder everyday, not easier. Blame myself and still feel stupid for getting caught up in it. And what they done was just wrong. #footballindex
@MarianKutsoati@Begbies If by “paid out” you mean credited to cash balance, I am assuming these are all classes media days as the dividend changes announced before administration did not have a dividend structure for euros.
Most days are still impacted by what happened. Anger at those who done this to us and anger at myself for getting drawn in. So we need to do all we can. Literally took 30 seconds to do this, let’s make sure we explore every avenue. #footballindex
💥Over 1000 letters have now gone to MPs from their constituents affected by #FootballIndex
What a brilliant community! Keep sharing the link with those impacted - & responses from your MPs https://t.co/4g7pEZIV1K
I explain why it’s important on @FiGuide https://t.co/OKBilxtF07
@DFK_Trader @_FI_trader Yeah curiosity got the better of me, not sure if it means anything or nothing. I think when I saw Italy’s starting midfielders and forwards and realised all had been in my port I got intrigued. Ah well, what might have been.
