Is it just me or has RateSetter removed the ability for lenders to see exactly where their money is in the queue?

Go to Portfolio -> (whatever market you want) -> and scroll down to unmatched money where the queue is displayed. Don't blame you for missing it though, RS does seem to make finding what you want very difficult!

Very annoying, I assume to get more people to effectively use the current rate

Perhaps RateSetter would like to explain why it's in our interests to have a less transparent system (hint: it isn't)

Don't blame you for missing it though, RS does seem to make finding what you want very difficult! Or from the main page, e.g. if you want to invest/see the 5 yr market, -click on the "5 Year income" box on the left that shows the last matched rate (5.2% currently) -that brings up a "Select market" page with (in this case) the 5 year market ticked, click "choose your amount" -takes you to "Amount to lend" page where you can enter an amount to lend at market rate (don't want that) -rather than click "Review and continue", click the "Are you a RateSetter expert? Set your own rate here" link over to the right
Doable but a pain in the rear compared to how it used to be.

Are you a RateSetter expert? Set your own rate here.
Just proves they are trying to attract 'dumb' money to keep rates low.

This lets you set your own rate but still can't see the queue right (unless already got unmatched money on it)? or am I missing something? I guess you can put £x in at 9.9% and have a look round then change it?

Once you click the "are you a ratesetter expert" it reverts to the old screen, with the view full market button- or it does for me anyway. cb25's method works this end (thanks for that, kind person )

Or just click Market Data from the home page, followed by 'View full market' of your chosen product.
I think hope they're doing it to put things in places you'd expect to find them.
But yes, if the future intention is to hide the market altogether, I'll be withdrawing, penalties or otherwise.

The changes are more than just annoying, it makes the platform very difficult to use and is eroding my trust in the platform. If they continue on this track of playing games and using smoke and mirrors at the expense of investor interests i will be out, along with a number of other accounts as soon as possible.

I'm guessing the 'number of matches in the last 24 hours' stat is now gone?

Thanks all.
I think rates might drop a bit until people get used to the new UI.
