"We are currently undergoing maintenance." I can't recall prior notification, is this normal? Working ok for me. Possibly related to ongoing tweaks being made? Thanks, back working again

Now we play spot the difference to find out what has changed! Maybe the Set Your Rate pen has been resized to 1 pixel square.
I don't understand why RS often roll out changes to a live website in the middle of the day. This sort of activity should be confined to the middle of the night or at weekends. It's far too risky to do at times of peak user activity.

Sometimes it's a good idea to make changes when there are plenty of support staff within reach.

Although I agree it is very confusing when they change the site with no notice and no instructions, at least the latest set of changes let me tweak rates on queued transactions easily - indeed more easily than prior to this latest iteration of changes. The only improvement I would now like is to see how much is queued in front of each offer. However if the cost of that was to make the system slower I would live without that change.

Yes, the tweaking is now less tedious - and perhaps they will discover multi-check soon

<vent> I'm getting sooooooooo hacked off with all the constant little website interface changes. It's driving me nuts. </vent> I sit 1k at 6.0% and I like to check how far that is in the Q every morning.
Can I now ? no. Can I find where it's moved to ? no Do I assume that feature has been removed ? probably. Arghhh. Feedback from RS to my query :- "It was a business decision to remove this function. However, due to the feedback that has been received since the change, the feature will be reintroduced."
Good.
Thanks for the posts, I couldn't work out what was going on this evening... Thought it was my account only, but thankfully with a P2P website like this, we can all see a 'pattern' developing here!!!

Having recently returned from a week ago I was initially frustrated to be faced with yet more changes to get used to, however that frustration soon turned to pleasure as I noticed that much of the functionally which had been removed has been reinstated (albeit some in a haphazard way).
I still find it VERY frustrating though having to click on 'Invest' THREE times to make one investment into one market!

I don’t suppose they happened to say when it would be reintroduced? Or is it now there but the route to finding it is so convoluted that I’ve missed it?!

There may be an easier way which I've yet to discover but if you go to 'edit your order' (by clicking on the pen icon on one that is unmatched) and then click on the + or - to scroll through the rates, the amount of unmatched money ahead of you in the queue is shown for each 0.1% rate increment.

Sadly you need to be very careful using this function if you move the rate up or down just make sure you don't click the edit button as it will just put you at the back of the queue or if you just leave it at your rate it will reset the order to the back of the queue only use the cancel or "x" in top right corner of click outside the screen. You will of course at best get the full amount in front of your selection as if you are the last to have lent. Unless they have reintroduced the changes but i'm guessing they need to fix the fact they are using a single storage block for the current items and they are sticky as well in that it does not change until you use the +- regions. If you ask me its a dogs dinner of bad coding and logic and it smacks of someone saying "oh can you just add this functionality as soon as possible without going through design change concordance at all" but what do I know.

Whatever the rights or wrongs of the RS changes, they appear to have moved people's focus off the changes that appear to have been made to lower the interest rate further (presumably changing the balance of "rolling" money used to fund >3 year loans as they believe requests to withdraw these before the majority of funds are available to fund withdrawals are available.

So looking today it definately appears the queues will move together with the 1 or 2% premium.
Could be a good calculated move by RS, in that the big chunks of money on rolling may well keep 5 year(max) rates supressed
As of this morning my reinvestment ceased

Am I right in thinking that it is not now possible to make new offers in 5 or 1 year? Also there has been a large amount moved from >MR on the 5 year market. Has anyone lost any offers (perhaps those set at "your rate?) or have a lot of people withdrawn or edited their offers in the last 16 hours? Or are all legacy offers not shown?
- PM

No idea Pm hard to tell anything right now I see someone has been confused by the new interface (probably) and dropped 2.1% on roling which has dragged of course all down by almost 1% You can invest at 5 year, you need to go to invest (just below rates) and use the dots to move across to the right of the rates, its almost like they have hidden the 5 year
