Looks like you could be right there. I moved all but 60p out of the MLI a/c and adjusted my target to again 20p over holding...nothing happened. Couple of mins later, added 50p to MLI and out the 20p went. So the problem seems to be that you haven't got enough money... and you owe me £1.40!  Thanks. Unfortunately, Im waiting on some people to pay me some money. Ive met a man who introduced me to some people who'll give me a bridging loan. Just waiting for a reply they promised me!  EDIT: Apparently Chris has changed it now. Ive just bought £1.20 and as soon as I get another 20p the system will actually allow me to invest it now. H***kney now's your moment!

The £1 limit on accounts being considered as a potential buyer has been removed so any shrapnel should be investable as long as it's 1p or more.

Perhaps more lenders are active on AC since the launch, and are tinkering with their portfolios, but I am being more successful at picking up parts of loans on my Most Wanted list.
The only trouble is having to keep a float of cash in the Manual account, waiting to pick up anything that comes along. It would be great if the system knew I had priority targets, and that if any of them became available, then fly off some of my other in demand loans to finance the purchase of the high priority target.
Also I'm hopeful that, in time, the new site will show trading volumes.

I see the display of the loans when I go to LOAN BOOK >YOUR LOANS is being changed, it looks like you're in the process of adding a new column, so all the figures have moved to the right but the column titles have not moved, ie nothing makes sense. I will wait patiently... IN EDIT Yes the new column is ltv security, it all makes sense again.

The "Adjust investment" screen only lets me enter whole pence. How do I move an odd fraction from the cash account to the MLIA in order to zero out the cash account (and potentially allow another penny to be invested, or move an odd fraction back to zero out the MLIA (and potentially allow another penny to be withdrawn to my bank or invested in one of the other accounts when they launch).

I'll ask the front end team to adjust this.

"Export as CSV" button now moved to the top of the Loans pages, and loan number column added to the Loans download file - thank you AC. EDIT: ... and loans which has been sold but still owe interest are now included on the "Your Loans" page (and in the download) - thanks for that too! chris, I notice that the interest in the Loans download is set to 5 dps and the holding is set to only 2dps. Can't we have both of these set to the same precision as in the Statement download i.e. to 15 significant figures? |

Is anyone else having problems like this? Is there any solution other than an automated page reloader - which would mean the net effect of the 'security' change is worse security, not better, and also won't fix things if I suspend\resume? I have "dashboard", "browse your loans (paged: no limit)", "transaction statement", and "Upcoming loans" open in four tabs. "Upcoming" has ReloadEvery running on it to keep the site logged in, the others don't need to keep refreshed (and I'd prefer they didn't). Even then, sometimes, 2 of the 4 tabs will turn to "Login To Your Account" pages (no idea why), and you're right, the login doesn't redirect you back  Just irritating, rather than a showstopper.

And also not how it's supposed to work. Will grumble at the front end team.

I have had a similar experience. But if I know I'm still logged in to the website on one of the pages I've found that using the browser's Back button (I'm using Firefox) on the page that's become the sign-in page often takes me back to the page I was looking at.

Pseudonym - apologies if this has already been asked
On the old site, I had a pseudonym (not badger!) which appeared against any question I asked. I can't find it on the new site. Below my full name at the top of the screen it shows the name I use for adding funds, which includes my surname and which I prefer not to be made public. Maybe my pseudonym is still there somewhere, and would show if I asked a question, but I don't want to clutter the Q&A with tests.
I would expect the pseudonym, if it's still there, to show under My Profile

Well, well!!I had £979.01 in Redditch!! I tried to increase my target by £20.99 CAREFULLY, and end up with a target of £1000. On the confirmation window I clicked YES. (Got it right so far, chris ?) Now, here's the screen shot I took thirty seconds later showing my new target as £1021!! The original £979.01 still shows. I DID NOT PUT £41.99 IN THE BOX!
Discuss! 
PS. I am still not fully convinced that I made a mistake two days ago when ALL my TWY holding was sold.

Credits and debit both showing as red in MI account display. Yep! This was also reported around 23 Oct. The debits have a little minus by them but surely the old system of black and red is better - we don't all have perfect sight.

I wonder if we could do with a fresh list of outstanding issues, or even some kind of bug reporting section on the forum. Perhaps a sub-forum with one thread for each bug/issue. I'm sure Chris is doing a great job but it must be very difficult with some threads in excess of 30 pages.

The page has changed - you can set the target directly now, rather than having all this mental arithmetic and risk of accidentally increasing a target that had already been increased or similar. What else do you feel needs discussion about this older version of the site? Main "gotcha" now on that page is the need to remember to click "set my investment target as" each and every time you adjust a target, rather than the system remembering that's how you prefer to set targets.
