Then you probably bought the wrong stuff, as I wrote, you have to get the cheaper stuff with the big strands,
look here:


...The left rope is the right rope, 3 main strands, easy to splice ...
The rope I mention is the only type available locally but it seems to be available everywhere (the sad state of Britain today, lots of shops selling the same products - probably from the same factory in China). It looks more like the one on the left. It was easy to splice a loop in each end. It might just be a personal preference thing, I'm used to the stiffer RA line & prefer that (or an even stiffer line) to reduce tangling.
