Let's give ashwinp some time here - there will be an element of trial & error as to finding the right balance for this particular platform. There might be some merit in making the maximum bid for these "non-standard" loans some multiple of the maximum that each individual lender has previously specified for the usual allocation process? What works for platforms like FS & MT, where lenders are used to logging on for daily deadlines and performing some due diligence, is not necessarily what will work for a more "hands-off" platform where some investors may prefer not to log in regularly. Unbolted's priority has to be to fill the loan promptly such that the borrower is funded rapidly. Service is paramount if the platform is to succeed. Fair allocation between lenders matters, but must be secondary to this?

Or have it as a third option to automatically invest in those types of loans. It will mean that unbolted will get the money straight away and everybody that wants one will have a similar share to normal investment strategy.

I've copied ashwinp in, so hopefully he will see the discussion and consider. On a sidenote, a shame to see a chunk of the big antiques loan (2DFDC2D80) redeem early, so cash pile waiting for a home is bigger than its been in months now!

littonowl it is irritating when a large loan repays😁 I would like to see the recoveries items sent to auction with much more speed. Either way it increases the cssh pile. The glut of cash is also coinciding with my ramp up repayments 6 months on. I like the suggestions put forward for options on smaller and on the none standard loans. Its like the platform have a large, free, development team😉

It's brilliant that people have been listened to! A £25 limit seems much fairer
