Did your early reporting break their 3 month rule ? Quite possible that they feel entitled to ignore any inputs which they consider too early. If the 'robot' rejects a set, it very likely takes some time before anyone gets round to investigating & processing the info.Oscargrouch wrote: »Was your FIT payment later than usual?

That seems pretty straightforward. Due date was 22/08 but they'll accept an earlier report; that doesn't mean they'll pay before the due date and in this instance they seem to be working to that 'rule' by paying on the due date. I'd be really impressed if Scottish Power got anywhere near matching that (but before anyone suggests swapping - it's really not worth the effort just to get cash two weeks earlier).Oscargrouch wrote: »No Eric; submitted it on 11th August (within the 14 day window of due date (22/08) got money in Bank on the 22nd....NE Derbyshire.4kWp S Facing 17.5deg slope (dormer roof).24kWh of Pylontech batteries with Lux controller BEV : Hyundai Ioniq50 -

I put my reading in on the 14th whether I'm on holiday or not!
I check the gen meter before I go, and use Wattson anywhere for the days I'm away.:D
I also do this for the leccy and gas readings;)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.0
