It still seems slow. Since 7 December, I've bought 14 different loans on the SM, totalling just over £1600, nothing on the PM, and still have £1100 available balance.

The Christmas slowdown is starting to bite now. I've not had a nibble since Thursday and my available funds is now well over 1%, higher than at any time since the September change.

This is rather odd as I still have a signficant sum in FC and I currently have large amount for sale for last 45 mins and nothing has sold. 2nd time this has happen to me in the afternoon around this time. Whereas in the mornings my loan parts sell off within minutes.

Strange, as long as they aren't dented parts I'd be happy to take my share! If only there was some way you could offer them for sale, and I could look through them and buy any I liked the look of...

Haha...well as much as I can tell you without knowing what parts will be sold, is that they are all property loans with at least 6 months to go. Pulled them out of sale about 20 mins ago (nothing sold in over an hour!), to make my withdrawl so what sold this morning is in my bank account tomorrow.

Me too! I was given one PM loan yesterday, the first since the 7th, but a shed load of money came in today from early repayments of property loans. I guess people are keen to move for Christmas. I'm now over 5% in cash.

I'm trying to reduce my investment in FC and have several 3 figure loan parts (no issues with the loans) up for sale. No sales at all after 6 hours. I sold a few yesterday but they took several hours. Wonder if the smaller loan parts sell quicker as easier to diversify a smaller portfolio.

All of my loan parts are £20s....i have large sum still in FC and trying to reduce it. Trying to sell a lot. They fly in the morning but dead in the afternoom. Twice I have noticed that

I had requested to sell a sum from 8am until 5pm today (after nothing sold yesterday!), and again....0 sold!!
Not sure how this system is working, as I have also had large amounts be sold in minutes before.

Not sure how this system is working, as I have also had large amounts be sold in minutes before. Have you tried selling a different amount? I have a theory that specific loan parts jam up the works on Fragile Computer. If I try to sell £780, Autobid sits there for hours making no progress. If I cancel that and sell a larger or smaller amount it sells within a minute. Try selling £780 again even after a few days rest and it hangs again. On a different account selling £180 causes the same problem.

From the buy side, 5 different PM loans yesterday but only 2 parts on the SM. Still over 2% in cash.
