Open (almost) all hours

Posted by Dave at 11:21 am

Even Zopa needs a break, so we’re not going to be operating our normal staffing levels over the next few days.

On the down side, this means it might take a little longer than normal to respond to your emails and deal with your lending or borrowing. On the up side, that means you can go back to your mince pies and Christmas pudding and not worry about boring money for a little longer.

Here’s what’s happening:

24th Dec - We’re around, but not many of us.
25th - 27th - Completely closed. Sorry.
28th - 31st - We’ll be doing a little, but not a lot.
1st - 2nd - Closed. Again. I know - slackers.
3rd - All back to normal.

Hope that’s all OK?

I know this had nothing to do with the blogb, but a certain question has started troubeling me and i dont know where else to ask it.

I first heard of zopa in a magazine and to be frank i was pretty excited since it seemed like such an amazing idea. Why would we give money on a bank that gives us so little intrest or why borow if their intrest is enormour. So i was all Huzzah like assoon as i cought wind of this. But then i noticed what usualy happens at something so amazing online ” UK residence only ”
And since im not from the UK but only from the lame EU i have a problem, so im wondering if ZOPA is ever thinking of expanding to the whole of EU ( and if so how big is the chance of it doing so by the end of next week? ^-^; )

I wish to hear any anwsers of such or thoughts from the zopa staff
Anyway keep it up

Hi Heijiri

Thanks for your best wishes and interest - sorry that we’re not able to help you out at the moment!

We’re working on expanding internationally as soon as possible, although our first destination is likely to be the US. We’re trying to work out whether we can get regulated for the EU as a whole, or whether we need to go country by country. Also, we’re thinking about how best to manage the expansion - whether we do it ourselves, or partner with others.

Needless to say, we’d be very excited about an EU launch - and hopefully you’ll see us there in the nearish future!

Cheers

Dave
