We are currently sending our weekly update, which includes information about this boat repayment. This update email can take 30 mins to send sometimes and you guys are generally quicker than that at noticing new updates. Thanks for the information. I haven't received the update yet, would it also be blocking/ slowing any other emails coming from you at the moment?

Probably time for a website review/refresh soon as well. SS website still states that they loan against Boats/Aircraft/Cars. Some of these they have never loaned against and some they have suggested they will no longer loan against. If you do want to diversify away from PBL's I believe there are other P2P sites that do lend against these asset classes.

I'm missing something here. Why is PBL015 so attractive when there are loans available that still have the 0.5% carrot? [Still learning ...) One reason is because it has drawndown and therefore investors will receive an interest payment at the end of the month without doubt. When you invest in a loan that hasn't gone live you get the cashback offer but you don't get it, or any interest, until the loan draws down. I invested in a few loans back in October and was tempted by the cashback but as of today they have still not completed and therefore I have received no interest payments (or cashback). When you are relying on monthly interest to live on, the guarantee of being paid at the end of the month outweighs the +0.5% cashback. At least it does for me. Now I tend to go for the live loans and avoid the new 0.5% cashback ones which may or may not complete in the near future.
