Every loan listed in the Secondary Market is currently set to default sort by part size (starting with £25 parts at the top). Can we please have the default sort order changed to sort by Effective Rate (highest to lowest), otherwise we'll have to click that every time we look at a different loan!

Ah, I see the problem. When using Chrome, the "Account Information" link is actually positioned behind the Funding Secure logo and so cannot be clicked (or seen easily, for that matter) Looks fine to me on Chrome. Force refresh your cache to ensure you get a new style sheet (Ctrl + F5). Incidentally, why don't FS show a running balance on that statement page like a bank? It looks a bit unusual without one.

Yup, cleared cookies and cache and I can now see the new site as it should be. I was getting some weird hybrid of the two previously.

How about adding an option in My Account / Edit My Details for users to set their preferred list viewing length (Show 10 / 25 / 50 / 100 / All), this setting to be applied automatically on each page? Changing every page I click on from Show 10 to Show 100 is already becoming tiresome.

Blimey, clearing the browser cache (in firefox) makes a big difference. It's something like a Jekyll and Hyde transformation. (Edit: Off-topic but alas did not work any magic on the new Zopa website.)
I did find it useful having both Days Active and Discount / Premium on the main SM page previously so hopefully this can be returned. On the plus side there are loans apparent on the SM that I'd not previously recognised with how cluttered it used to be.
+1 for the suggestion of default list length as a user setting.

It would definitely be helpful to be able to combine all the loan parts per loan so e.g. for renewal's you don't have to tick 15 boxes per loan.

fundingsecure Maybe its my set-up (using chrome on a 1920x1080 monitor), but the new design renders horribly on my screen. Specific issues: - It is very difficult to read any of the links in the main top navigation bar in the header (little/no contrast between the dark green font and dark blue background). It has already given me a bit of a headache.
- The fixed navigation header at the top of the screen overlaps with the bottom scrolling part of the screen. Specifically it the lowest part of the header “PEER-TO-PEER ASSET BASED LOANS” overlaps “information” hyperlink on the top left hand side of the page and when you scroll down.
- As a general point, the fixed header takes up quite a lot of the vertical screen, making the content even more squashed vertically on a standard 1920x1080 screen
- The font and spacing of the left hand side navigation links just looks wrong
It seems from comments above that the site renders better using other web-browsers/resolution, but chrome & 1920x1080 which I'm using, must one of the most common set-ups. The current rendering/layout has given me a headache after 10 mins use - a first for me, so didn't even get to see any of the changes in functionality.
On a purely cosmetic level, the new site as I'm view it on my screen is a massive backward step and makes the site look very amateurish compared to a far cleaner/slicker look previously.
Update: clearing cache seems to resolve of the cosmetic issues above

Nick - This caught me out. Have you tried clearing the cache in chrome as suggested in posts above, as this should force your browser into displaying the updated pages with the new files. A simple page refresh does not suffice.

I should have read the previous posts - clearing cache in chrome has transformed how the site renders and has rectified most of the cosmetic issues I had originally encountered!

fundingsecure: This update seems to have made a mess of loans that have remaining terms in the low 30's. For example, I have some parts for sale of the Italian Book and Carlisle Development Plot loans with 31 days to go. The system tells me they're for sale, and I can edit them, but if I look on the list of loans with parts available, those loans do not appear. So I can't possible sell any of those! One thing I do in monitoring my account is to transfer the list of my current loan parts into Excel. I used to be able to do that very easily, with a single copy/paste. I can't do that now because my list is long enough that it falls onto multiple pages, so I have to change the number of lines to display -- what a pain to have to do that so often -- and then I have to do multiple copy/pastes. Then, to make matters worse, the Paste operation produces twice as many rows as the original list of parts has, with every other row containing a * in Column A and nothing else in that row. So every other row has to be deleted before I have a data list that I can use. That's another royal pain! Finally, FS seem to have left the Online Chat system running and then gone home. So there's a message at the bottom of my screen telling me that "Live help is online..." when, in fact, it isn't.

First impression was Arrrrrgh, the secondary market discount rate and effective rate columns have disappeared, but actually it's just cosmetic. We just need the best price for each loan part displayed on the secondary market overview, then I can come off the Valium.
The site seems to be running much faster.

I'm using Firefox and it looks fine, not sure about it being an advancement but time will tell. Only question about the splash page, are the riots about to start again?

With Chrome the 'Your investments for sale' screen seems to have lost the Cancel boxes, can only see a thin red line instead of the whole box.
Strangely, zooming to 110% shows a bit more of the boxes.

That's after clearing the cache. Edit : Same result with Chrome under Windows or Linux. Firefox doesn't show any of the boxes at 100% but slightly more than Chrome at 110%.
