My investment concentration was changed from 1% to 2% with the update (I assume reset to original defaults?), I've changed it back, but I would not have been pleased if I hadn't noticed and had got a load of loans bigger than I wanted. If this applies to all lenders, you might want to warn them that their settings may have been changed by the update. Also on that page all the numbers such as 1% or 2% are dropped down in the boxes so they are only partly visible. (I'm using Chrome).
It's been asked before but is there any chance of a lower concentration, ie, 0.5%? Or an ability to pick whatever you want? The size of individual loans increasing is one thing that stops me investing more in BM.

It would be useful to see a transaction history which displays individual interest payments from borrowers.

My investment concentration was also changed from 1% to 2% with the upgrade. Fortunately I was able to change it before any investments were made at 2%. The sliders on the investment settings page don't work very well with Google Chrome. This is what it looks like.  |

Thanks for the comments re Investment Settings. I think it's just a display issue, but we'll investigate on Monday.
As noted above, even if you select 2%, the biggest position you can get after you've been fully invested is 1%. So it shook be a moot point for anyone who's been fully invested.
Please let me know if you spot anything else untoward.
(There are a few things still to port over next week).

Stephen, what happens to the settings when you add more money? Does your system have a fully invested flag? And is it reset on further investment? Thank you.

We've checked the database and the old investment settings were all copied across OK.
Although, it looks like the form may have erroneous labels. Will fix.
No need to change your settings - unless you want to...
I suggest you email us to confirm any changes you want to make: invest@bondmason.com

Yes - you get email notifications when fully invested for the first time, and this resets when you add more funds.

I notice the value of my 'Liquidatable Receivables Balance' in the Withdrawals screen has increased markedly since the migration to the new website. So presumably funds that are held in loans on the watchlist/in recovery can now be withdrawn?

BM would be a lot better if the fee were tax deductable for personal investors. As it is a 40% taxpayer achieving the planned 8% gross, 6.5% after fees gets a 3.3% return post tax, unless I misunderstand. Ie tax is paid on the 8% not the 6.5%.

On the watchlisted loans page, would it be possible to added the date that the Loan Notes were added? "To be repaid within a few weeks" doesn't mean very much if it's not known when the note was added. Keep up the good work! We now have updates like the following "Feb 2018: Loan has gone over term but sale is agreed and is expected to complete in the next couple of weeks." That is now 6 - 10 weeks old. Please provide more timely updates, and date them in DD/MM/YY form.
