    You can use any of the Big 6 if isupply don't handle FITS (the smaller suppliers can opt out of FITS if they wish-the larger ones cannot).
    No free lunch, and no free laptop ;)

    You can use any FIT supplier you want to administer your FIT payments.
    You don't have to use your existing electricity supplier.

    I prefer to use a FIT provider who is dedicated to renewable energy and who WANTS to deal with you, not one who is forced to do so (like the big 6).

    Thanks for your reply but both EON and Co-op have rejected my application.

    Trying to establish this.
    EDIT: Looks like isupply do it.
    I was told by a colleague that I could apply to any but they are saying otherwise.
    Luckily the two rejections came very quickly.

    That seems very odd. What reasons were given for the rejection?

    From EON
    We are only accepting FIT applications from our own electricity customers and customers whose energy suppliers do not provide FIT.

    From CO-OP
    Thus in line with the Terms and Conditions of our Feed-in Tariff (FIT) Scheme one of our requirements which must be met is that an applicant must be an electricity supply customer with us.

    Interesting.
    Good Energy will definitely accept anyone as a FIT "Customer" regardless of their supplier.

    There's a list of all registered FIT's participants on the link below. isupply is included. The Co-Op are not, as they're too small to be compulsorily registered. Below a certain level, registration is optional. That certainly does not apply to EON, and you have been misinformed-they cannot refuse to register you.

    OK, but in that case I've been mis-informed by an EON employee in an official capacity.
