Cheers for the heads up, someone actually bought mine so it's just found a home in the latest Manchester tranche! What is the benefit to they buyer? They're not going to earn any interest by holding these loans for less than a day are they? It would be a full day, as interest is calculated daily, loan value / 365 * 11%, if paid to nearest month that interest up to the 18th then it's 4x the amount or loan value / 365 * 44%. We've only been told it's being repaid today. If funding is no problem for today's bid, and already used up limit available. It's speculation with spare cash used being returned almost immediately, if any delay then there is interest for each extra day. £0.01 = loan / 365*11%, loan = £0.01 *365 / 11% = £33.18 so that's any loan in excess of £33.18 might be less depending on the rounding used.

I guess they're hoping repayment might be delayed, or haven't realised just how imminent the word "imminent" means. Either way, it's about as safe as P2P gets. Spot on. They are actually migrating SS investors who understand the word imminent to mean "this year" (or at the latest, "next year")

Added funds this morning in case loans for repayment did pay back in time. Which means more available for tomorrow if any left / enough that it's worth trying to bid for.

Half an hour gone and still 90k left.
Well done to Ed and the Things for getting two big loans away smoothly and panic-free following the bidding cap and system performance improvements.

If you have any of that, you could sell now. Just sold a couple of dregs myself now to get more MH ahead of the actual repayment. Edit. Apologies - just seen you've maxed out your 2nd allocation already...

pls educate me , what is gonna happen? A good part of the repaid funds will be diverted into the MH loan (where lenders haven't used up their bid limit)

A loan is due to be repaid tomorrow so lots of people will have money in there accounts. This is likely to be used on the M********* H*** loan. So it is unlikely there will be anything left at 4pm
