Solar energy - Feed-in Tariff payment delays - your experiences?

EDF super fast again this quarter .....
Reading submitted late last Thursday 1st September and BACS remittance email received this morning !
£752 thanks very much.
Keep up the good work EDF & in the absence of any evidence to the contrary they seem to be setting the standard for how FIT payments should be handled by power companies.
Cheers......Nobby.

Earlier this year I bought a house with solar panels installed by the previous owner. SSE have just confirmed that they have transferred the FIT contract to me, and they took a meter reading so that they can send me the first payment. Can anyone tell me how long it takes them to process a payment?

An update in case anyone's interested. SSE couldn't process the payment from the meter reading I submitted. Instead of letting me know there was a problem, they didn't do anything until I called them for an update. When I called they took an updated meter reading, and this time the payment was in my bank account in less than week later.

Good old EDF ....
FIT meter reading submitted last Thursday 1st December and BACS notification received today.
In the absence of any evidence of any other supplier being faster ( unless you know better ) then surely they are the fastest
consistently now ?

29th Nov - 2 Dec for me with EON who have been brilliant all the way through. I could never have anything to do with EDF now after they got involved with that madcap nuclear project at Hinckley Point.

Glad we're looking after you Exiled Tyke and making your FIT payments in good time.

first utility probably ranks as one of the slowest payers of the lot - a good 8 weeks later!
