Fumbling Coders will be pleased to know they are not alone. MoneyThing web site is down and can't be fixed because their web developer is in a different time zone - ah well, better than being on another planet I suppose.
Makes you think/realise we're dealing with small businesses here! I'm surprised how much some of the companies are prepared to outsource. I'd have thought that a web technology business would want to employ or partner people with enough understanding to keep the site working in some capacity. He is on holiday overseas, that's all, and has the MT site back up already.

Maybe Fragile Computers could learn a thing or two from this whippersnapper.

I'd have thought that a web technology business would want to employ or partner people with enough understanding to keep the site working in some capacity. I believe the issue is that these business aren't really web-technology businesses. The web-IT part is just the enabler/tool, an important part, but not the essence of their businesses which is a lending agent/administrator and market place. Take FC for example, I haven't seen any real improvement/evolution of their website over the past 2 years and they seem content to just keep patching up their flaky website/back office IT - their systems can't even fully reconcile account balances without manual intervention. The IT is treated as secondary to investment in other key areas of their business, primarily credit, risk and product marketing.

I am unable to download Loan Parts for one of my accounts - I have too many parts! Used to be ok (when I had more parts), but "if it ain't broke, fix it". The solution is in my hands, I suppose, so I'm working on it.

but "if it ain't broke, fix it". In the lab I used to work in, we used the saying "If it ain't broke, fiddle with it 'til it is broke", usually directed at one of Microsoft's "updates".

The solution is in my hands, I suppose, so I'm working on it. I was having the same problem but today I noticed there's a new "Export loan parts" link next to the old "Export current view" link, and it works! Even better is that the rate shown in the new export CSV is the real rate of the loan part rather than the "buyer rate" that was displayed when the part was bought (as was the case in the old CSV).

I expect the latter is just a bug which will be fixed soon. Can't go telling people the real %anything% can we .. might confuse them. 8>.

Using the formula suggested upthread, I tried to reconcile my total of Frail Capital. However, my records of deposits and withdrawals were inadequate so I asked Faulty Counting for a list. Unfortunately this prompted them to do a reconciliation for me. This revealed that I had benefited by £160 from those infamous ‘double sales’. They have taken that amount from my balance. They have also deleted lines from my transaction records. This feels odd - banks add correction lines when errors are made. They don’t just delete lines - which leaves no record of what happened. Now my books are balanced but I feel out of pocket.
