In last few months I have been sending returned money from Invest to the ISA product. Last couple of days I've been doing monthly reconciles and spreadsheet updates on our 4 products (2 each) and therefore in and out od Zopa pages accordingly.
We have been using "relend to ISA" option on our Invest products and over the 2 days I've noticed the build up of funds in core seems to suggest that lending has slowed.
Although I've never seen it happen and there is nothing waiting in New money at present the actual money sitting in matching to borrowers seems to be creeping upwards everytime I look. its not an issue at present as its way of £1999 but if it slowed down much then I might end up with £20 loans instead.
Of course it may just me in there noticing it more as Mrs Aju lent out £130 on 123 loans yesterday, £70 on 7 loans on 6th and 2 today so far. I haven't checked closing loans either perhaps that has increased the levels in our buckets.
Does anyone know whether returned money sent from invest to ISA is classed as NEW money and poked into a different queue to lend that normal returned money. I know that it is reducing my £20000 allowance each time it comes over on a daily basis usually.

I have received notification from Zopa that since the recent defaulted loan sales along with my Bonus return for being a first adopter are both classed as New Money and therefore not subject to being transferred over to the ISA side from the Invest Side.
I can accept that New Money by definition is not relend money and the fact that the bonus is relevant to the Invest side that this might not be explicitly transferred to ISA as its not technically part of existing lending but separate and only calculated by any lent amounts.
The money returned from default sale however is surely technically part of the defaulted capital not yet returned and therefore technically should not be classified as New Money, should it?.

I guess we are being paid by a third party buying the debt, so in that way it is new money, but debatable.

I agree it's very debatable and to be honest am expecting zopa to suggest that is the case but its still frustrating that now if i dont want to continue with investing on the product and move money to Isa i have to keep a reference at the right time in the month . Its only just over 3 quid a month on the bonus front but it's just that i felt in control but actually i am not!
