Are there any loans available for investment at this moment in time? If you're looking for a site where loans will be sitting around then this aint for you. If you're able to quickly transfer 5k+ in as & when there is something available (as I did this afternoon for 2 that were launched) then it's worth a look

I'm not familiar with this platform.
Does anyone know how long does it take to get funds credited on the platform and how quickly does customer service respond to emails usually?

It was less than 30mins for me today - probably a lot less, but I can't remember what time I actually transferred (other than it being between loan notification and confirmation of funds deposited). So during the day if they have a deal on it seems to be pretty quick. May be (a lot) less quick at other times tho. Responding to emails - it varies.... I've rarely had an urgent request tho. If you wanted a quick response I guess you could pick up the phone.

I was told by BC that transferred money is credited to accounts twice daily at noon and 6pm. However this seems to be more like 2pm-3pm and 8pm-9pm in my experience. On days when loans go live I guess there may be extra efforts, but I've missed at least one where the availability steadily reduced to zero over the several hours I was waiting for my funds to be credited.

Do you know if there is a good reason why we don't have a sub board for BridgeCrowd?

My preference is certainly to respond to an announcement, but as I don't want to increase my overall holding at the moment this is the first time I've needed to transfer any in for a few months (having previously withdrawn money I'd decided not to reinvest straightaway). So I don't really know how viable it will be as a strategy as the platform grows. When they do repay there's often a hint as to how soon the next deals are likely to be available so I don't mind leaving the cash there a few days to see what they look like.

Aside from the general lack of functionality of the site, it is mildly irritating that after investing in a loan the funds enter a no man's land where they are neither included in the total invested nor the available funds and the loan in the pipeline does not show that you have invested.

IIRC, the Pipeline section of My Investments shows that you have money pre-invested in a pending loan

Small improvement: now the live investments page has a new section that shows invested but not yet live loans.
