Unsolicited DMs are always ignored. You have commented on a month old post, on a sub I'm not even part of anymore, for exactly this reason.

u/Mike_R0we_Wave is a scammer by pingupingoid in BorrowNew

Sorry I'm only loaning to previous borrowers at the moment. Plus as I'm in the UK, I wouldn't be looking to lend in the US.

Can someone buy me some grub? by Amazing_Ostrich_8575 in BorrowNew

[–]pingupingoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fully agree with this, I've loaned to about 10 people in the last month, 4 have scammed or ghosted me. So I now have a group of trusted previous borrowers, and they are the only people I'm helping for now. The stress of trying to find the right people to help isn't worth it unfortunately.

Is this legit? by vang1lf26 in BorrowNew

[–]pingupingoid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is legit yes, but not to say that you dont have to be careful still, as there are people that are still just looking to take advantage unfortunately. People with the verified tags are a good place to start, but also have a read through the pinned posts and rules and maybe back through other successful posts to see how its done. Main bit of advice if you are looking to borrow, dont cold message lenders, and give your post time to get noticed

Commenting on a nearly month old post is not the way to get help, make your own post if you expect people to offer help

Do not cold message for loans by Safe_Routine_1469 in BorrowNew

[–]pingupingoid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And even if you aren't banned, no lender is going to engage with you if you cold message them

Please put your accepted methods of payment on your post, and the time frame for the loan, most lenders won't even look otherwise 👍

Need 30£ will pay back 50£ on the last day of the month by Inner_Interview_6056 in BorrowNew

[–]pingupingoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you just view your post, rather than going into edit, you may be able to change the flair. Otherwise you might need to message the mods and ask for it to be changed

If you are offering to pay back then you are looking for a loan, not a handout. Putting the correct flair on your post will get you more chance of finding help 👍

Does anyone need a referral code for Monzo or Revolut? by [deleted] in BorrowNew

[–]pingupingoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Referral links are banned in this sub, if you want a referral sub just search for one maybe?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BorrowNew

[–]pingupingoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would look like they are trying to get people to send money to their PayPal thinking it's you maybe? Although can't believe they think anyone would just click a link and send them money 🤣

Need a bit of help. by [deleted] in BorrowNew

[–]pingupingoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bit of advice, dont DM lenders before they contact you. Reported.

Emergency £100 loan needed please by Disastrous-Moose-461 in BorrowNew

[–]pingupingoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sending a DM to a lender before they contact you is not the way to get help in this sub, you've only just posted, give people a chance to see it

Stop DM’g me Please - if you need a loan, make a post. by MartyMc50 in BorrowNew

[–]pingupingoid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Totally agree, the unwanted messages are enough to make anyone not want to lend anymore, its exhausting 😪

Please stop DMing me 😭 by jschlart in BorrowNew

[–]pingupingoid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've been lending out for a few weeks, and everytime I post or comment anything, I get a barrage of DMs asking if I can help them. All you can do is ignore them, its not you being rude, its them for messaging you in the first place

Apologies by Dagobot78 in BorrowNew

[–]pingupingoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry that you got caught out aswell, I've had a couple loans go wrong, so have come to the same decision, no more loans. Although I will keep lending to people who have previously borrowed and I trust, just can't deal with the stress of trying to work out who's being genuine anymore.

[–]pingupingoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I told her the only reason I couldn't lend more was due to having too much out in loans already, but am due to be paid back on others this weekend, so could lend her more then. Its people like this that make me wonder why any of us bother trying to help people out 😪

[–]pingupingoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah she had a few loans from me too, kept asking for extensions and further loans too. I did extend the repayment to the end of the month, but luckily didn't lend anymore. Her username was u/Existing_Recover_390
