HiWell I haven't had mine yet!
What date did you submit the reading ? ... We've found that when submitting by phone the payment has always been the third Friday, ie call the reading in on a Friday and the payment is 14 days later whilst doing so on the following Monday it is 18 days later ... that's until their agent upset the apple-cart this time 'round

30th September online, so the equivalent of Monday 1st October by phone. On that basis I should have received payment on Friday 19th October but, as I said, my last payment arrived on a Tuesday - it was submitted online on Monday 2nd July and payment arrived on Tuesday 17th July, so I could have expected the latest payment as early as Tuesday 16th October.What date did you submit the reading ?2kWp Solar PV - 10*200W Kioto, SMA Sunny Boy 2000HF, SSE facing, some shading in winter, 37° pitch, installed Jun-2011, inverter replaced Sep-2017 AND Feb-2022.0 -
Aha - I got the self-bill invoices in the post today (two of them as there's two separate FiT registrations), dated 17th October (last Wednesday), so the money really should be turning up soon.2kWp Solar PV - 10*200W Kioto, SMA Sunny Boy 2000HF, SSE facing, some shading in winter, 37° pitch, installed Jun-2011, inverter replaced Sep-2017 AND Feb-2022.0

It would appear that E.ON still have a way to go. System installed end of Feb this year, four months to get them to put us on the system, first reading submitted 27/8/12, payments received......zero.
I've just started the formal complaint procedure so we will see how quickly they respond0 -
The money was paid today, the fourth Wednesday after submission. Scottish Power are certainly keeping me guessing now!Aha - I got the self-bill invoices in the post today (two of them as there's two separate FiT registrations), dated 17th October (last Wednesday), so the money really should be turning up soon.2kWp Solar PV - 10*200W Kioto, SMA Sunny Boy 2000HF, SSE facing, some shading in winter, 37° pitch, installed Jun-2011, inverter replaced Sep-2017 AND Feb-2022.0 -

Not too bad then ...
When you mention Wednesday, is that the date of the BACS transfer or the date of the BACS confirmation receipt.
A thought regarding the payment days. This could be related to the area which you are in ... maybe a specific day for processing specific geographical areas ??

That was the date it was credited to my account. I received the BACS remittance advice in the post today (Thursday) telling me it had been credited on Tuesday!When you mention Wednesday, is that the date of the BACS transfer or the date of the BACS confirmation receipt.
Apart from the minor detail that I have now been paid on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday and have not moved!A thought regarding the payment days.

I emailed reading after their email requesting it on 3rd December & got a confirmation email straight back.
That was a week ago today and have heard nothing else.
I hope this does not mean a return to the dark days of long waits for EDF fit payments - last time it was all turned around within a week !
