Self Employed Furlough Payment Wrong

Hi all,
I found out today the amount I will be getting on the scheme and it is very different to my figures:

Last three years average is £10125. (All on HMRC system for all 3 full years)
I should get for 3 months £675 per month so £2025 is what I was expecting.
On the site today it says I will be getting only £1250?
Any ideas as very confused as I thought it was a simple calculation!
Thanks

    Our average is  £12000 and it says we'll get £2400 so that would agree with your calculation. No idea why the HMRC haven't used the same formula.

    Check your figures, and if you are sure it is wrong, appeal.
