Where's the 'accrued interest' col. gone, on the MLA loan list?
It used to be on the old platform.
So even if the loan was sold, it showed interest owed, until it was paid.
I can't see this on the new one, unless I'm missing it somewhere.
You're not missing anything, its gone. Several have already mentioned this. You might want to make a direct comment to AC on their website to add a little weight to the request for its restoration.

... Or wood for trees transactions of nanapennies. ... Are those ones you inherite from your grandmother ? (who presumably found that the old adage "if you look after the pennies the pounds look after themselves" didn't work in practice, otherwise she would have passed down nanapounds instead) Now you're being picoey

"Accrued interest" and "next payment" columns now restored to the loan lists but that's reintroduced the issue of having to scroll right to see all the columns (using a bar that's right at the bottom of the page) which is impractical (for PC users).
A sensible maximum width of the loan name column needs setting to fix this (along with introduction of text wrap or abbreviated loan names), or at least an option added to allow selected columns to be hidden or reordered so users can choose how they are going to be inconvenienced.

Funny I was just feeding that back. Still missing loans where there is accrued interest outstanding but no holding

Indeed. It's a nonsense that I now have to scroll horizontally even on a 17" laptop screen (and that the horizontal scroll bar isn't visible unless I first scroll all the way to the bottom of the loan list) chris, there are many columns that could be trimmed for width, of which Loan Name is just the most obvious: Amount - round to display nearest £k (the hover-over gives the precise figure anyway) Capital Valuation - round to whole % (again, hover-over gives the precise figure) Risk Category - abbreviate "Medium High" and "Medium Low" to "Med-High" and "Med-Low" LTV / LTGDV - round to whole % (hover-over gives the precise figure) MLA Interest Accrued - this column is actually wider than Your Holding, driven purely by the width of the column title! Units Available - round anything over £999 to display nearest £k (hover-over displays the whole market) Next Payment - change date format to DD/MM Last Updated - change date format to DD/MM Loan Note links - ditch "Standard" and "IFISA" and just have the little Note icons (maybe with STD / ISA within the icon?)

Could also move the note buttons under the loan names where the actual notes are, no need for a separate column
Also need to freeze the column titles so they stay as you scroll down as per legacy site
Bottom scroll bar could also be frozen as an interim measure so you at least don't have to go all the way done to move across

Some updates still from last year … though that does raise the question whether annual updates are appropriate. Somehow I suspect that #1009 might need something added before Sep 2020.

No longer displaying YY shouldn't affect the date sort function (and a hover-over could display the full date if needed). I presume most people use "Last Updated" for sorting to find the most recent updates, which should still appear at the top. The "Next Payment" column seems to add little currently; clicking on it to sort does nothing (or rather, simply returns the list to Loan # - descending). Could the next payment date be displayed instead within the "MLA Accrued Interest" hover-over?

chrisAnother major bug - seems you can only set an instruction on one MLIA account, standard or IFISA, not both. Just tried to add buy instructions on both my MLIA and it wont let me. Its locked to whichever account already has an instruction. I have to use the legacy account to set both.

Still missing loans where there is accrued interest outstanding but no holding. These loans are listed under live loans but show zero accrued interest, so that needs fixing.

Repaid loans list has gone missing (or maybe it's always been missing on the beta). Either way would like it back.
Also, loans with nanopence of capital and no interest due are still displayed in "My Loans". Would like these to be removed or be given the option to hide them.

Marketplace/Live Loans display seems to have changed (order of columns being one obvious change), with the right-hand end of the page off the screen and no horizontal scroll-bar. Means I need to shrink my Firefox display to max of 80%.
Marketplace/Repaid Loans display has the two comment links (Standard and IFISA) being truncated within the webpage rather than by the end of my screen.

I'm not seeing the option to view Repaid loans at all - do they appear under your Marketplace menu bar? EDIT: ah, just realised you have to access them via the dropdown menu.

I'm not seeing the Repaid loans at all! Do you get 'Repaid Loans' as an option on the Marketplace Loans/View list? If you do, is there any text in the Search box acting as a filter?

I've had to shrink it to 70% to fit (also on Firefox), and what's happened to the statements? I've sold something in MLIA but haven't a scooby what as no amount of screen shrinking displays the full details of the lengthy line of text that doesn't view to the loan name or number. Presumably I have to download the spreadsheet just to find out?
This is getting a bit beyond a joke. Perhaps AC should go back to the standard version and spend some time sorting out the beta version before rolling it back out, hopefully bug free? Whatever happened to fit for purpose?
