Now unavailable in HTML form - seems one has to download a CSV to get at your daily transaction log. Can't say I'm happy about that if I'm honest. It means you have to download spreadsheets just to add a few transactions to your own logs, and this necessitates multiple windows and the inevitable file clean-up afterwards. Grand faff. But unfortunately there's a bug too. If you try this from an IFISA account, you get directed to a page from which you can only export a log of your Classic account. The URL you are directed to is this: www.lendingworks.co.uk/lending-centre/classic/transaction-history/filterHowever, I noticed that you can fudge the URL, which does allow you to get your IFISA log: www.lendingworks.co.uk/lending-centre/ifisa/transaction-history/filterSo probably worth adding a couple of bookmarks whilst LW fix. |

Hi tyrexThanks for the feedback. We took a decision to remove the HTML transaction listing based on usage data and the fact that it provided only very high level summary data - for example you could not identify which loans repayments related to and figures were rounded etc. I'm interested to hear use cases for having the transaction listing as it previously was, or even better if you have any ideas on exactly what you're looking for from this feature, as we'll likely be improving this soon. Thanks

Hi tyrex Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks Thanks Matthew . My use case is based upon updating a running balance in my cashflow spreadsheet. I track all of my P2P, bank accounts, credit cards in one place, so I need a way of taking yesterday's closing balance from LendingWorks and making it reconcile with today's total account balance. This means I'm interested in daily interest payments as these increase my balance, whereas other transactions such as capital repayments do not (unless I'm investing or withdrawing but that's a one-off item). The problem with P2P interest payments is there can be dozens of them, so an efficient way of grabbing them in one go is useful. A downloadable CSV is more useful for monthly reconciliations, not daily. Look no further than this snapshot from Ratesetter, this is the best way any P2P company has found as far as I'm concerned.  If you're looking for a technical solution for HTML & downloadable CSV tables, might I suggest you take a look at datatables.net - it's a plugin that gives users the best of both worlds.
