Broadly I like the attempt to improve the interface. However, I think the removal of the "Loans with units available" tab on the browse loan page is an unnecessary backwards step. If I am looking at adding to my positions I am only really interested in loans with units currently available. Previously I could select this tab and then sort the columns based on loan rate to identify the higher rate loans available to conduct DD on. Now I can either sort on rate or units available which is considerably less helpful. I have raised this via the online chat and they confirmed that for some reason this functionality would not be returning.
Me too.
chris - I wondering whether someone believed that the new (?) facility to add a second sort order (by shift-click on the header) would achieve the same as the previous "Loans with units available" tab. Well it doesn't. If I sort by loans available then by APR the secondary sort only kicks in if the units available are the same amount (e.g £0), If I sort by APR then by units available I sort of achieve the objective but the results are spread out over many pages with huge blocks of loans with no availability in between.
I know the model is to set targets on loans and they will be fulfilled gradually, but I've had a 5 figure sum sat as cash in MLIA for a couple of months (as a proxy for QAA) awaiting opportunities to deploy 4 figure sums per loan mainly on other platforms but also on AC if a suitable opportunity presented itself. As it happens I've been gradually withdrawing and moving funds to another platform, but this doesn't encoourage me to see if there are opportunities on AC which meet my criteria.
If there are no plans to bring back a clearly helpful and useful page, could we at least have a box on the filter facility to be able to specify a filter for loans with more than £x,xxx availability please.
