    FYI anyone mourning their Zopa ladder, I was just checking on when I can get all my stray pounds out and noted the ladder would now work again - transfers into boosted pots are available again. I haven't been tending to mine and I just gave notice on everything at once when this happened and it's not really worth it for me to get it going again but it may be of interest to someone!

    Thats odd.... if they considered laddering an 'exploit' why would they enable it again... and if not then why would they disable it? Maybe so many customers were laddering and then left that they had to say 'f it, let them ladder'.

    I can't move funds into a boosted pot I've given notice on

    All zopa had to do was not disable it as such but limit the number of pots you can open. Its a shame they removed it completely. Well currently there are almost some easy access that nearly offer the same as the 95 day boost so its not really worth it now.

    Don't know if it is still the case, but IIRC when they launched 'smart save' the number of pots you can have was limited to 20.

    Definitely something happening tonight. There is currently a note on my Zopa account about some services under maintenance.

    I was given the option of moving money from my primary pot or my one 95 day notice pot that I haven't given notice on! However, at that point it crashed and I can't get into moving money again. 


    Ok - it seems to have cleared now, and it now says I can only move money from my primary pot into just one of my boosted pots, but that's a 95 day notice pot which I haven't given notice on. Wouldn't mind moving into one of my other boosted pots but they are not available.

    I've now given notice on that account, and now I cannot transfer into it - luckily I didn't want to.

    Good to know but personally wouldn't risk it just incase they pull out again without notice...still waiting for my solitary £1 to become available in June!

    Not for me, either. I am on version 1.64.0 which looks like the latest iOS version and has been available for 5 days. Anyone got a later version?

    It's still working for me, but I won't need the facility for real until the 13th. I did see that I can't give notice on a boosted pot with zero balance.

    Not for me either. I'm on Android and the latest version of the Zopa app is also 1.64.0.
