I just rang them and they have received my payment and my account is set up. They say that they don't usually send out confirmation emails.

It seems it took a while for payment to reach them though. They have it in their system that I paid on 06/03 and my online banking says I paid on 29/02, need to remember this when I'm paying my bill.

At least it's sorted & I can start getting some green dots on my credit file.

This might be a strange idea, but maybe it was a leap year bug with their computers? Since you paid on the 29th and it caused some strange problem which meant that the confirmation email wasn't sent and it took almost a week to receive? I definitely got my confirmation email within an hour and that was a month ago.

That thought had crossed my mind too.
My pin turned up in today's post, so it looks like all is well
