A lot of loans to invest in!
Anyone got any thoughts on which are the pick of the bunch and which ones should be avoided?

I was told by BC that transferred money is credited to accounts twice daily at noon and 6pm. However this seems to be more like 2pm-3pm and 8pm-9pm in my experience. On days when loans go live I guess there may be extra efforts, but I've missed at least one where the availability steadily reduced to zero over the several hours I was waiting for my funds to be credited. Do you know if there is a good reason why we don't have a sub board for BridgeCrowd? A few people have been asking recently. I think it would be a very good idea.

I'd been investing in SS over a year before a found this forum. Perhaps SS could develop their own forum within their site which investors only have access to if they hold a loan part within that loan. We have considered that; would it appeal? Yes 100%

Would also really appreciate a breakdown of the situation on this one!

Has someone forgot to turn the interest tap on? Was all paid by about 8.30 last month It's usually paid by around lunchtime. Give them a chance to get into the office, drink some coffee etc.

I think that this is a very underrated loan - also very surprised that it's sticking around so long.
Very good security, well-known and successful business and low LTV - plus the added bonus of the LTV dropping even further as the earlier tranches repay. By the later stages of this loan the overall LTV will be relatively tiny.

lendingcrowd seem to be mysteriously quiet on the forums - haven't logged in for over a month actually. Any chance we can get an update on this defaulted loan? Still find it somewhat bizarre that this loan hasn't been marked as "in default" yet considering the borrower has missed several payments...

Ablrate hat very much off here.... You may not want to trade with me . But I'm always happy to move stuff around to help clients or shift my exposure. Obviously I can only do this if I don't have insider knowledge. I'm always a buyer of Portakabins. Seller of SME loans and 532. Rather uncomfortable with this in principle. Firstly you cannot take your Ablrate hat off and be just another lender. Everything you do here is Ablrate - you cannot cast off your knowledge and position and be 'one of us'. The principle of Caesar's wife must apply - Ablerate presumably being Caesar. And making buy/sell comments (public or, worse, private) about particular loans - on whatever basis - way out of order. What does being always a seller of 532 mean when it is paused and due to repay in four days? Yes ablrateandy - would also like an explanation on why you're always a seller of 532 - a loan that has already renewed once, is paused on the secondary market, and is due to repay in four days. Especially as our messages asking for an update in the 532 thread have gone unanswered by yourself and ablrate. Could you let us know what's going on with it please?

Thank you all for your replies. Very helpful. I've registered and will keep an eye out for significant changes but for the time been I'm going to dip my toe into Saving Stream and some other potential platforms. I've noticed a few of the other p2p lending sites have there own section on this site. It would be nice if there was one for Bridgecrowd so we could build a community and discuss investments as they do for the other sites. I'm comfortable with the £5,000 investment but I'm not quite willing to transfer money onto the site yet without more investigation and waiting to see what opportunities there are. I will.post if I make any investment or have any contact with the site etc. Thanks again 🖒🖒 I also think it would be a great to create a sub-section of the forum for BridgeCrowd. I've been investing with them for a little while now and things have gone well - no issues at all. Really happy about the launch of the new online platform... shows they are really upping their game.

Also increasing my P2P stake currently.
Only thing I am doing differently now is focusing on as much diversity in asset types as possible - I was quite heavy in commercial property so I am now rebalancing to include more residential property, pawnbroking, business loans etc.
But other than that.... all systems go!

It's highly likely I'll make an appearance - thanks for the discount code!

Will you be adding some more capacity to this shortly? Would like to place a decent-sized bid
