I think I will go and do some painting then I can watch it dry. It'll be a darned sight quicker than lending money in BondMason. I suppose as an alternative I could go into hibernation for a month or two  |

Nothing since 19/1 for me. Stuck at 50%. I'm totally bemused by the allocation "algorithms". Can't understand why I got some on 20th and 24th so I went 91.4% >> 96.7% >> 98.7% but you didn't move. Is it because I am still under £10K invested I wonder. (edit: ah, but before that I'd had nothing since 13th) I suppose a gorilla is more intimidating than a little old lady - do you think that could be it?

I'm all cuddly and desirably demure really...  (after my banana ration) ...and I've known diminutive elderly ladies who can pack a punch when they need to ...  Come to think of it, two of my (very good) former bosses were of a "petite" nature, 5'2" and about 5'4" I would say.

The algorithm is written to help people with less than £10k to get allocated quicker. So in my case it quite clearly isn't working.

There are good loan volumes at present, so I'm surprised that you aren't seeing activity at present. If you haven't seen loans for a while then expect some more loans shortly. All clients are rotated fairly in order.

Can you give an indication of how many days it takes for the allocation to roll around all the clients?

All clients are rotated fairly in order. I haven't had any activity since 13th Jan. I'm still only at 72% invested on my original investment after 10 weeks (peaked at c. 90% then dropped back due to repayments) and a second lump sum added is at 0% after 1 week. I'm beginning to think it was a mistake to add more funds. In light of your comment about good loan volumes at present, the algorithm doesn't appear to be working very well to me.

Hi Steve In January I have had the following allocations: 4th Jan 1 6th Jan 1 9th Jan 1
10th Jan 1
11th Jan 1
13th jan 5
16th Jan 2
20th Jan 5
25th Jan 5 (today, which brought me up to 86.5%)
While I accept that this looks quite a lot it averages out to barely one per day and until the last week repayments have been more or less offsetting the new money. Maybe I am expecting too much and I admit, looking at his list, maybe I am not doing too badly after all.
Regards
Adrian

5 more investments today -  Currently at the exhalted invested heights of: 98.54% (of account balance) Or 100.91% (of sum deposited) Which calc are others using when quoting %s ? Can't complain  |

The algorithm is written to help people with less than £10k to get allocated quicker. Suggestion : It might be better if the 10k threshold was increased to the current ISA limit.
