Definately, that last one was gone in the time my screen took to refresh by a £500 bid Edit: and again. Max bid should be 5% of loan value so at least 20 people get a look in if not more

Agreed. I just keep getting 'the available amount has changed', then I go back to the loans page and the loan has filled.

I must change my password to something shorter (I tried pasting it but that doesn't work - for very good reasons)

Yes this is hopeless. Sitting refreshing every four seconds to even stand a chance of putting in our passwords is not on. Deals need to be put up in batches of ten or even twenty, not one at a time, so the scrabbling is spread about and more people get something. Also make sure bots can't hack in as each loan comes up.

Yeah, was wondering about bots. These are going way faster than Friday.

Indeed but more have signed up.
5% sounds sensible. Bulking together some smaller loans may make sense too?

Put batches up twenty at a time, with an hour's delay before the starting gun is fired, so we can look at each item.

That's it, funds bidded out, what a frenzy, let's hope some of the suggestions are taken on board for next time.
