I suspect they might start allowing deposits for "plus" lenders within the next day or two, they are lending c.£420k per day and have c.£730k to lend. Of course repayments ill come in but they might run out of money to lend before the weekend. I doubt they are concerned too much about next week so the moratorium may be reimposed before Christmas. With repayments there is still c.1 weeks money in the classic market so I doubt that will be re-opened before the New Year.
It will be interesting to see how they deal with it, partially accepting deposits in a particular market or keeping all markets closed to new money and refusing new loans, perhaps a mixture of both topping up with insitutional money?

Interesting, the amount lent per day and amount queued has disappeared from the lending page.

I'm less concerned as to comparisons to banks as to why they conveniently suddenly stopped making this information available just after a point where they appeared to have approx only one days funds left for Plus, about two or three for Access, and maybe a week for Classic.

Perhaps they have stopped accepting new funds as they have come to the realisation they won't be getting FCA approval?
Come me to think of it perhaps that's why they've decided to become a bank

Before Zopa+ became publicly available it was financed by institutional money. I assume this will be used again until the platform re-opens for new funds.
Please can all the conspiracy theorists return to their natural home on the Ratesetter threads.

There's a difference between 'conspiracy theorist' and someone being bothered about how a company choses to stop disclosing information.

It's back open again!
The rectangle at the top of the page now reads
"We are accepting new money transfers: The current platform limit for all new money transfers is £4,900,000.00"
Edit: It now says £4,700,000.00 - looks like this is the new progress bar/countdown until deposits stop once more!

Now £4,400,000. Tough luck if you can't get to your computer by tonight.
They could have sent an email but as they didn't I suppose we now have to check the site every day - or visit here!

Lasted 4 days and closed again. Guess that could be another few weeks closed. Really not sure I agree it's the best way of managing this. Those of us on top of it throw loads in when it's open and the new or casual investor misses out and goes elsewhere. Maybe not good for the long run. Who knows.

Trouble is I guess that there is so much competition for borrowers and also its that time of year, there may be an after xmas flurry perhaps ;-) when people realise their cashflow is not what they thought perhaps - especially judging by the so called bumper xmas forecasts ...
For me I don't much care a the moment except that all my reinvesting rates seem to be falling - still not as bad as the banks etc.

I guess its generated a bit more interesting chat on the zopa forum what with this and the old loanbook reports being withdrawn - perhaps zopa is ready to pull the plug when the bank is fully up and running. Interestingly does anyone know if the restrictions are just retail of are the wholesalers getting a lookin still.
