Who wants to join a credit union? Your max rate is pegged to a CD rate in a credit union and the whole things feel alot more social then investment tool. I havent actually lent any money yet but I feel like I'm going to stick with my Kiva loans on a social level and my prosper loans for semi-social investing.

'Investor' and 'no risk' NEVER mesh together. If they do, you're likely talking about very, very conservative and boring investments. Zopa hasn't addressed the questions I had specifically. I got some half-pint reply whining about how they had been overwhelmed by emails, etc. Hey, I didn't hear Lending Club complaining when I asked them about their business model, so Zopa, stop crying...
