Seven loans filled in 4 minutes.
I was intending to put a small amount in each of the 6 car loans, but I wasn't fast enough - only managed 4.

This was my first time investing on MT. It reminded me of the good old days on Savingstream - except that the MT site didn't crash. Almost brought a tear to my eye.

I am still new to MT (and pretty new to P2P) so was not entirely sure what to expect. Things actually lasted for a bit longer that I thought they would. Even with my WIFI deciding to blip, I managed to get a piece of the Managed Portfolio renewal and to spread a few scraps on 3 of the cars.
The valuations on the cars looked a bit optimistic to me, but for the sake of diversification I dipped my toes.
Surprised not so see more action on the SM in the time leading up to 16:00.

Maybe not this year, or even this decade; you will be expecting it then. But one day Sir I will have my revenge - if I remember, which is very unlikely.

I think that I timed it at about 3 mins for all to go? - I managed to get all that was going, but it's a bit stressful!

I get bits in all the 6 cars. After that I noticed that all of them are still available so wanted to increase my investment in some. But then realised ONLY 1 BID for 24 hours is allowed but my wrong assumption was you can do multiple bids up to 1% limit.

But then realised ONLY 1 BID for 24 hours is allowed but my wrong assumption was you can do multiple bids up to 1% limit. .... you certainly won't be the last one to be caught out by the 1 bid rule. This rule can be 'frustrating' when multiple loans are offered at the same time and you quickly realise that some will be filled before you get all your bids in. When I think this is going to happen I have a 'plan 2' where I up the bid on a couple of the loans to ensure that I'm investing the cash I want to. That said I didn't find yesterday too much of a scrabble, 6 modest sums on the 6 cars and none had hit 90% before I had finished.
(if anybody reads this post and thinks I'm wanting/suggesting a change I'm not! Really like MT as it is ...... )

Whilst it won't work on the speedy ones, if you email MT they'll top up your bid for you provided you're still below the 1% limit - can be handy if you get a decent chunk of repayments the following morning and know the loan won't last til the 24hr mark.
