For sold parts, I believe the interest stops accruing when you list it for sale, not when it is sold? Yep. When you list a part for sale, it tells you that in the pop-up "OK-without-reading" box.

Ok my flirtation with life is over, football, beer, cinema, more beer, shouty music from men dressed as checkerboards, further beer, stiff neck, no hangover, all experienced and now back to the P2P world elgerod thanks for the comments very useful and have revised entry to reflect this, except for pre-drawdown which as you suggested is the old way. My inital interest payment answer was a preemptive strike on the inevitable monthly 'why hasnt my interested appeared' thread so hadnt gone much beyond that and while I right understand what i am saying it might not be clear to others as I have a particular way of mangling the English language so any comments re-phasing always welcome. cooling_dude DFL/PBL answer added, see what you think, trying to get my head round how SS are going to handle DFL

Lot's of if buts and maybes in regards to how SS are going to manage DFLs, but I think your summery is (as always) very good.
Maybe just a warning that the details in regards to DFLs are yet to be fully explained by SS
Just one more thing; I think your FAQs should have a key with the most common abbreviations used by us users.

Ive put a couple of posts in pipeline thread with my thoughts on the DFL which I am slightly struggling to get my head round.

For sold parts, I believe the interest stops accruing when you list it for sale, not when it is sold? @gsv3miac, you're quite right of course, thank you. ilmoro , thanks for modifying the text - looks good! One very minor point on the same topic, I think the bit in brackets (in which the loan part is sold) should say (in which the loan part is listed for sale). In theory it is possible that a loan part could be listed for sale, say, on the penultimate day of the month, but not actually sold until the following month. Nonetheless, I think the seller would still get interest paid at the end of the month in which the loan part was listed for sale.

I know I tend to bleat on about this, but to my frail old mind: any communication which requires a reference section to look up its meaning is simply bad communication. I am so tempted to set up an automatic replacement of acronyms with the actual words... the facility does exist... but I'd hate to hurt anybody's feelings. I'll get my coat...

I think most users here are quite happy to use and learn a few acronyms....

You will note that in most cases I have deliberately not used abbreviations and generally spelt the terms in full to avoid frequently asked whats that mean questions. The exception being where Savingstream have used it themselves eg PBL/DFL. Im trying to be good, I am. Can i have a cigar?

A new investor on SS. A couple of questions if anyone can help please. On the SS platform. On investor activity - is that always buys or sell parts too. Why do small transactions ie. 1p, 50p appear, and,. Does the SM have a separate tab somewhere or are monies available on SM those monies still available in Live Loans.
