FIT experiences

As the title suggests, what are your experiences with FIT companies?

I have asked BULB (who i am with at the moment before PV) but they said they are running a beta programme, so not totally convinced by them.

I am with EOn and perfectly happy. Online system, pay quickly and accurately.

Happy reading...

Just noticed 2 of us were typing at the same time, oh well

I'm with EDF. They took a very long time to initially process the application. But they did back-pay me for all the FITs I was owed.

Now, they are really fast at paying. I submit a meter reading and get the money in just a few days.

They helpline seem quite friendly too whenever I have called them.

Bit confused (or not)
OFGEM states FIT as 4.01 but quotes from pv installers state 3.89 (ish)

Also Export as 5.24 but installers quoting as 5.00 (ish)

Am I right in thinking the providers are skimming a little off the top for profit?

Suppliers cannot skim anything off the FiTs - the contract is between you and the FiT provider and are based on the system's date of commissioning and size. You'll get whatever OFGEM states.

It could be that the installers are still working on the pre 1 April 2018 numbers?
