Version 1.0.3.8: Verify GL Bids and a couple of bug fixes

I have added the ability to verify GL and endorsement bids. The current Prosper system only displays that at some point the GL placed a bid for $400. The Prosper system does not reflect whether or not the GL was outbid, or even if the GL placed additional bids. My enhancement corrects these issues by indicating the status of all bids from the GL. Actually any endorsement can be verified in this same manner. Here is what it looks like with my extension (a link to this example listing). Use the Verify Bids link to expand the bid information. It does not automatically show.




Here is another example which shows the GL has placed 4 bids. Prosper's system shows a single bid at $1,500. The actual amount in bids is $3,175. The link to this example listing.


Yet another example (the listing). This one shows the GL being outbid and at what interest rate.



This symbol indicates a current winning bid.



This symbol indicates a loosing bid and it should indicate the rate at which the bid was made.


If you hover over the bid information it will indicate the date at which the bid was placed.

This new Verify Bid functionality is dependent on the new Prosper API which is incomplete... so some of the more recent created listings will not be shown.

Now a couple of bug fixes

If you try to create a Google Alert with less than 1 day left it would not create the alert. Fixed that.

The Narrow Estimated ROI was not adding in whether or not the borrower was a homeowner or a group member. If you recall, Broad is based only on the size of the loan. Narrow adds if homeowner and if group member to the ROI search. Group is for the specific group the borrower is a member of. And Specific takes into account the Extended Credit information.
