Does anyone know what happened to this loan? It seems to have been drawn down, but when going to it's page (ID 34075), I get redirected to the Loan Request page.

Looks normal here. Are you logged in?
Though I haven't actually got any. And I can't see any on sale.

Looks Ok here too .. I can only suggest the OP wasn't logged in (or didn't have a bid in, or whatever it takes, to actually get access). One of the more annoying features of the FC website .. and the message saying you can't have access usually (at least used to) get shown when you next went to an auction page you WERE allowed to access.. most confusing.

Yep the URL is right, takes me straight there. Are you sure you had bid on it ( as the same user you are logging in as?). I suppose it is possible FC have screwed up remembering that you are/were a bidder.

No - no bid. However, I've never had a problem accessing loans even without bids before. The one exception being C- loans after the bidding closed and prior to them being drawn down. Oh well - I'll put this one down to 'unknown' bug.

I've never been able to access loans I haven't bid on (successfully) after they've been drawn down by the borrower. I've always been redirected to the marketplace page. This has been the case for me since early 2011. As far as I know, it's how it's meant to work...

Successful bid not required,, any bid will do. Otherwise auctions become unavailable to view as soon as they drop off the 'loan requests' page. Maybe you can fool it by fiddling with the 'referrer' parameter in the hidden cookies, but I've never tried .. Easier to stick in a 15% bid on everything.
(and, as pointed out below, you can always look at loan parts which are for sale)

You can see the loan if you have bid on it, even if you were completely outbid or you have subsequently sold your holding. You can also see it if you didn't bid on it as long as there's at least one part for sale on the aftermarket. If you didn't bid and there's none for sale, you have no reason to view that loan so it is hidden from you and you are redirected to the loan request page if you try to look. This is how it's always been and, AFAICT, how it is meant to be.

I've found it now - a loan part got put on sale. Hadn't realised that this was the case as I've never really had a problem before and can even access loan pages where I haven't made a bid and the loan wasn't taken up. The only place where I'd previously seen an issue was on C- loans where I had not bid, the bidding had closed and the loan was not drawn down.
