I wonder why they didn't hold on taking it live until sure, it is not drawndown so the interest is paid by whom? We still get paid, right?

Savingstream will cover the interest in the event of non-drawdown, though they may have some means to cover this in part from the borrower. Nothing to pay back as funds are still sat in SS account (client account most likely)
Yes we still get paid (well I dont as sold out a while ago when the timescales looked iffy)

With SS holding the money and paying the interest, does this make PBL104 the safest loan on the site over the next week?

Interesting thought...
If this one were to be cancelled, it would return £1.75M to investors' accounts. That's about double the amount available on the SM at the moment.
Between that, and the rather empty pipeline, and the £1.25M of interest that will be credited at the beginning of next week, ISTM that the supply/demand balance in the SM could change significantly in the next few days.

And then we're into August, when all the solicitors hit the beach, so likely several weeks of relative inactivity until mid-September. Famine mode imminent, I suspect.

Of that £1.25M I'd love to know what percentage of that gets re-invested and what gets taken out as income. Also, if all the repay imminently, soon, within weeks, shortly, on time, etc actually do then there'll be little left on the SM anyway. Will that garden centre start to look tempting? Presumably SS don't want a large wedge of cash lying round in investors accounts as its feasible for that money to be withdrawn, so (conspiracy hat on) I wonder if some of these loans may "delay" repayment/cancelling until there's a new one ready to swallow up the surplus cash? (if the Arboretum goes live on the day that this loan is cancelled then I shall wear that conspiracy hat with pride  )

It would make no commercial sense for SS to continue to pay 12% interest to lenders beyond the point at which a borrower repays a loan. If / when a loan is actually repaid, that's when funds will be returned to lenders.
That said, repayment of a bridging loan generally relies on the completion of a sale or refinance, which hinge on the same solicitors that are drinking cocktails under sun umbrellas during August...

058 was due to repay £3m yesterday too, although i'm glad I didn't hold my breath  Lawyers are "talking" to each other. Interestingly 50 days left on the loan...

Lawyers charge by the hour, so I wouldn't hold my breath either. (I was once charged £10 postage for a lawyer posting something to himself!  )

I don't know why they bother posting 99 percent of updates as they appear meaningless.
