    I know im in the wrong place to ask this question but these web sites throw me completely, apologies. I took out a mortgage approx April 2001.with nationwide for £100,000 when i was self employed. Their quick quote for the mortgage included mortgage protection cover.On the 11.7.2012 i delivered by hand the standard template letter from MSE. Nationwide replied on the 23.7.2012 stating " I am unable to provide you with a copy of the credit agreement as this account is not regulated by the Consuner Credit act 1974.What do i do next, can somebody please help me. regards green.as1953.

    Try here, not sure, but keep asking for directions! ;)

    John, sounds like it is pretty high then. Do you see many missing bits? How does your generation look, are you doing ok?

    Mart.

    Edit: Just checked 2 of my inverters, they are bouncing around between 239-243V. But maybe 5-6pm is not a good time for an accurate measurement. M.

    No real problems with "drop outs" - I will continue to monitor and keep records, just in case!

    Generation is good - got another 20 yesterday but today looks like being 8 - 9.

    7.00kwh today on the cloudy east coast.
    Had my D/D with e.on lowered to £42.00 pm from October:rotfl:
    This is against a high of £120.00 pm last year(BSP)
    Also changed my monthly D/D to be paid in 2 days before my meter is read rather than 2 days after. This stops the money sitting there for almost a month doing nothing!
    16 Sanyo Hit 250s.4kWp SMA 3.8kWp inverter. SW roof. 28° pitch. Minimal shade. Nov 2011 install. Hybrid car. Ripple Kirk Hill. N.E Lincs Coast.

    We also did 7kWh yesterday.
    A bit of a come down after 85kWh generated in the preceding 7 days, although still above our daily target for September (5.88kWh)
    2.22kWp Solar PV system installed Oct 2010, Fronius IG20 Inverter, south facing (-5 deg), 30 degree pitch, no shading
    Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the end
    MFW #4 OPs: 2018 £866.89, 2019 £1322.33, 2020 £1337.07
    2021 £1250.00, 2022 £1500.00, 2023 £1500, 2024 £1350
    2025 target = £1200, YTD £9190

  • We got 8kwh yesterday despite the clouds in Nottingham. We've generated 163kwh over the first 10 days of september with an average daily target of 10kWh for the month so hoping we can meet this month target.

    Incidentally September has been great (20/21kwh), similar to the figures we experienced in late March (20-26kwh) and in May (20-25kwh), I'm guessing is this to do with our steep roof?

    (3.84kWh System installed November 2011, SSE facing, 45 degree pitch with some shading in winter)

    yup, optimum day for my roof angle is 15/9 so you probably hit the sweet spot with the cracking days last week

    10.2 kWh yesterday, not too bad considering the amount of cloud

    already generating 3.3 kW now, time to get the immersion on :D

    First 10 days have generated well over 50% of the predicted total for September. Another sunny day today so hopefully the month will make up for losing half of August.
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.
