Around 16:20, I'm sitting wondering what's with auction 8070. It should have ended at 16:21, and although bids stopped coming in, it seems that I was forcibly logged out of the site (even though I'd been using it). Hmmm. Logged back in. 8070 is "Ended" in my bids, yet now runs to 17:21 -- a one hour extension. But no bids are coming in. It's 16:28, and ... wait ... there are bids from the future. The clocks don't change yet, so what are they playing at? These screen shots were taken within a few seconds of each other at 16:28 ish.   |

Yes indeed. I saw that one with 4 minutes to go on the watchlist page, and looked at the auction page to make a bid. But that showed 1 hr and 4 mins. In case it did end an hour early, I put in some bids at the top rate, 10.7,and went back to the watchlist page to see if it went to minus time. It went to 'ended' instead, but on the auction page, it ran on, 59 mins etc.
Came back later and the auction had finished, and my 10.7 bids were accepted meaning it only ran on for a handful of minutes.
I wonder if the customer ended the auction early? If so it really saved FCs blushes. As likely, someone at the other end stopped the auction to prevent anyone noticing the anomily.

Some of the clocks (Australia and Asia) did change at the weekend so potentially they have servers setup incorrectly that think they are in Australia. We change ours on the 26 th Oct so expect more issues then and then USA changes on 2 nd Nov so yet more issues the week after that.

No -- as far as I can tell it was meant to end at 16:21 (that was the time listed from way back). It did end at 16:21. The times displayed though (for bids) are wrong, as is the count-down timer. This went wrong some time during the day, so someone decided to update the timezone in the middle of the day. So possible batchoy's explanation is right, part of FCs system is set for Australia

The Loan Request page looks to have the correct time but each auction is currently running an hour fast. Here's one loan where I've just placed a bid. I entered it at 15:07 and it clearly shows up in the All Bids list at 16:07. You can see my PC clock shows 15:09 which is when I took a screen grab and the time I'm placing this message is 15:17. I've emailed FC. John Edit at 15:29 - This auction was supposed to end at 16:19 but has actually closed at 15:19. Attachments:

It all seems to be fixed this morning. The loans page, the auction page and the all bids page are all showing the same time now.

Somewhere in the process the new-format loan pages (www.fundingcircle.com/loan_requests/<number>) seem to have gotten swept away, along with the new bidding pages / formats too.
Guess I better dust off the old code once more. 8>.
