Displaying the number of items in the basket is a good idea. When users aren't aware or have forgotten that loans are lingering in their basket, they have now a further chance to empty it when leaving the site. Thus fewer problems during loan expiry time.

Minor bug for me in Firefox, after I have checked out the "x items" still lists the number of items that were in the basket before check out. The number remains even when I navigate away to another page. Once I click onto the basket again where I get this notice...
... the indicator returns to "0 items".
Thanks for the bug report Kerry! I just spent $25 trying to reproduce it, but failed alas. But I passed the bug report along to our engineers, and they will dig into this bug. Thanks! John |

Cheer up, John. Someone is grateful for your loan and we are grateful for your efforts!   Paul |

You know what's kinda funny? I used certain loan criteria last night to make a loan. And then today when I made my loan, I used the same search parameters and ended up choosing the exact same borrower that I lent to yesterday! I guess her loan hadn't funded yet, and also I am apparently greatly predictable! I guess I tend to lend to women who remind me of my mom. |

Just wondering if that "post to Facebook" popup after lending has been removed... I don't recall seeing it either yesterday or just now... thanks  AHA - I just made another loan and saw on the thank you page a button to 'share on Facebook', thanks  -jan- |

Jan, I saw a newly-added opportunity to post the loan to Facebook, on the upper left of that confirmation page you get now after you check out. It was not a pop-up window, but a separate area on that page.

I don't know which thread this fits best in, but I received two emails from Kiva yesterday. The first was a thank you for making our 273rd loan (kind of a nice touch). The second was a "Your Credit is now Available for Use" email. It posted one repayment which so happened to be the final pay off for this loan. Was this just a coincidence or is Kiva now emailing final payoffs? If so, YEA! Dan |

Thanks! We consolidated the post-checkout emails into a single email. :-) The second was a "Your Credit is now Available for Use" email. It posted one repayment which so happened to be the final pay off for this loan. Was this just a coincidence or is Kiva now emailing final payoffs? If so, YEA! Hmm I don't know if that fix has gone out yet. I thought it was still in the works, but I could easily be wrong! |

The first was a thank you for making our 273rd loan (kind of a nice touch). I liked that bit of personalization as well. There is one thing that I didn't like and it is this wording: ORDER SUMMARY Maybe it is just me, and if so, I will learn to live with it. But with lending to real people I would think there would be a better term that could be used other than order. Anyone else, or is it me? Charmaine |

I can put in a request for a text change here. Can you guys propose some alternate wording? Thanks! John |
