Right! I've sussed out why I've got what I've got in that ATR 42-500. It has been on offer so long i'sd forgotten a couple of small tranches I had put in it in the spring. Can't understand why I can't put more in though, to a loan only 10% funded. Where is the clear "invest" button for aged optics (attached to limited intelligence) to discern? (Not that I want to; I've got enough in this one!!)
... furthermore, both my phone numbers were wrong. I have corrected them.

Design is much cleaner than the old site which had too many places to look for functionality.
I was hoping to see download of statement and current loans as this was discussed/promised a while ago. p2pindependentforum.com/post/34054
I'd also suggest you need to add a unique loan id as a separate column on screens (and downloads) especially if you are planning an increased number of loans . It will become increasingly tedious for you to come up with unique descriptions for another loan for the same type of aircraft. When dealing with a real or perceived error from a user your support team will find it a lot easier to know they are talking about the same loan.
I'd suggest you have a prominent link to directly to "ablerate welcome" video on your homepage as it does quite a good job of explaining your proposal to potential new investors.

I have an erroneous partial transaction for £500 on the secondary market that I've never made, meaning my total is £500 below what it should be. Could you look into this please? ablrateandy

Made a bid on the SM, tried to amend the price by a few pence and was erroneously informed: "You do not have sufficient funds to submit this bid.". Instead I had to cancel the original bid and create a new one.
I would also like to see the effective yield on my bid before submitting it.

Hi phlitb I suspect that you didn't have enough to cover potential accrued interest. The amount needed comes up in the popup?

pom I'll get on it as soon as I get home and look into why. Suspect that admin left it so we have to approve new users so it wouldn't let you in second time. If you DM your ID I'll get straight on it.

Hi ablrateandy, surely the fact that I was able to create the new bid after deleting the original bid demonstrates that I had sufficient funds to amend the original bid Hello! Not necessarily.... you said that you had adjusted the price by a few pence. If you had improved the bid by a few pence then it would have increased the amount required to place the bid. (Also if someone changes the length that the bid is up for then it increases the amount required to place the bid).

I don't like the way that multiple tabs open as I navigate round the site. I appear to be logged in on most or all of these tabs and safely logging off is more onerous than it need be.

Slight oddity with the payment email Ive just received. Seems to have deducted the payment amount from the amount I hold which is slightly disconcerting. Correct on site but did generate a 'huh what' moment. eg £1 paid, your holding £99 when its £100.
Also what happened to the notifications on site? Binned?

Think you might want to consider limits on the premiums loans can be offered at. Seem to remember the old SM got a bit stuck with loans at silly premiums and already weve got parts being offered at 25% markup. While nothing is being done wrong I dont think it gives a favourable impression to new lenders of the platform. Makes the market seem illiquid if theres parts just hanging round with no chance of selling.

Hi ilmoro . Can you elucidate more on the email with the illogical content (or fwd it to me at firstname.lasname@ablrate.com ) ? . There's a couple of notifications that look a bit "techie-written" that we are getting on top of. re. prices on secondary market, I am reluctant to do more than have a cap and floor to act as a sanity check. I am pretty confident that we will soon start to see enough liquidity that sensible prices will outweigh those that are "speculative" and that is how I want it to be. Ideally we'd like to see 99.95 - 100.05 in a couple of k per side and as people grow more confident we will get closer to that. And yes - on-site notifications binned (but obviously you can see stuff in your financial statement).

(Also if someone changes the length that the bid is up for then it increases the amount required to place the bid). My last attempt to explain the bug. If you don't have sufficient funds to create a brand new bid the website will not let you amend an existing bid even to make it substantially cheaper. I'll wager the same code is executed to check for sufficient funds when amending a bid as when creating a new bid, and clearly this would be wrong
