Midlands Trade Finance Provider #104 has a 1% discount again Perhaps it's an underwriter trying to raise funds to cover their commitments on the loans scheduled to draw down tomorrow and/or Friday?

Just picked up some shrapnel for J***dent@l #47 (at 30th Sep 2015 at 11:53) with a 5% discount. I was happy to buy at par. Seeing the size of the discount made me check the covie tracker, nice. EDIT. Also mentioned Here |

And I. Very nice though the investor doing this should be advised he's losing cash unnecessarily. As I see it, you only need to discount if you cant sell without a discount. Oh well, never look a gift horse etc etc.

Hover over the available field in the loans list to see if any discounts. Then go to the relevant loan page & click on the amount available in the side box and it will bring up a pop up showing the various amount available at each discount bracket

Had already tried something similar to that as it looked like the obvious route, but with no effect other than to bring up 'the initial 'in range of..' hover; i think its my tablet that is not helping. However, with a number of differently timed presses have managed to bring it up. Probably better on a PC.

However, with a number of differently timed presses have managed to bring it up. Probably better on a PC. My issues with tablets are well documented and even worse now since I dropped it and can only interact via the touchpad & onscreen keyboard (touchscreen dead, keyboard dead) which makes typing very slow and anything advanced like pasting impossible. However, that aside, seems to have been issues with hovering & popups today. In places, eg uninvested funds, been getting code appearing or nothing at all most of the day (laptop as well) though seems to have been fixed now.

When buying when there's units available at par and at a discount, does the system buy the 'available at a discount' first? The drop down menu with discounts doesn't seem to do anything.

When buying when there's units available at par and at a discount, does the system buy the 'available at a discount' first? The drop down menu with discounts doesn't seem to do anything. No its just for info. But when you click on the invest button you can specify at what discount you want to buy. The system will buy at that rate or better so if there are 1% bits available it will buy those first even if set to par. (Some people have picked up 5% discounted parts in some loans today though I doubt they had that set) If its a speculative buy than you could set it to 1% and it will then ignore available parts until some at that discount or more appear.

Whatever you buy, you should automatically get the best available discount since these units will be at the front of the selling queue

17k at 1% discount on 104 now.
As for tablets, if you press where it was suggested to hover in the screen shots above, that seems to work.

17k at 1% discount on 104 now. Considering that 45% of this loan still is available 14 months after drawdown, it would seem pretty clear that a discount would be required in order to sell any parts.

I've not noticed but is there talk yet of a re-finance with only 10months to go there should be some prep, and will AC take up the option? Do we want them to? It was interesting a little while ago as AC were having a big chat with them and trying to get a better understanding of how the business worked.

Leeds Commercial #45 3.5% discount.  Edit. I know you may need to unpause the loan because it was frozen. So I've unpaused it but it still isn't buying. So I deleted my original instruction, increased the amount slightly, about a minute later it completed the purchase. chris I'm wondering why the system wouldn't obey my original instruction which was for only £10, @-1%. |
