I thought the buy-now was for loans up to £500. Is this a change in policy?
Or maybe it's just late doors and they want to go home for their tea.

£855 of a watch available. Cheers. For once I was quick enough and mopped up the remaining amount!

I guess there are an ever increasing number of lenders using auto-lend and as a result the sum of £5 minimums has increased the threshold beyond the £500 we thought it was. If not, then lenders will have to sit in an auto-lend queue of sorts where we may only get a £5 allocation in, say, 1 in every 2 small loans.

Where on the site do these manual loans appear? Thanks The orange button changes to green on the investor home page and "buy now" appears. Press buy now and pick your loan. Put your bid in and hit return. Its yours. Rooky mistake avoidance, always check loan size to ensure you are happy with the loan proportion risk you are taking.

Worth keeping an eye on, perhaps a BH sees this as comparatively low risk and is happy to take whole (or as much as they can get) loans. I sent out the post as soon as I could although I didn't take a bite myself (I save myself for the 0.85% loans).

My head just imploded given my "rant" of yesterday. I'm in Spain at the moment and just come in to find that I've missed a bloody large loan (again).
Mind you, sounds like I'd have missed it anyway. Unbolted needs some serious re-think me-think.

Just been on chat with Ashwin, and he says it didn't necessarily go to BH's but to those that acted quickest to an email. I suggested some sort of bid limit and they agreed the current situation isn't fair so they will be introducing such a limit on all business loans that go on sale 'very soon'...
