Company I spoke to were fine.
To clarify it was not "ordered"
Issue with this scheme is if one product is unavailable after acceptance as I understand it you can not claim any grant at all.
Has anyone on here ever been unsuccessful in being awarded a grant for the item they so wish?

Yes, need to get all items on the application or you get nothing

As far as I am aware that's correct
I had a quick work out and it could be between 2 and 3 thousand farms who get the grant so between say 6 manufacturers you would get most things except maybe crushes etc.!
So if you have ordered products and manufactures say they can supply everything, where do you stand if it doesn’t turn up on time.It's really not many farmers is it....
In theory, you lose the Grant. This year though, they granted extensions as so many companies were not working, and then were snowed under...
I wonder if the same will be done on this one, what with the now second lockdown

yes. When you get offered the grant, you have a window before you have to accept the offer. Use that window to order or reserve your items, so at least you know whether they are going to be able to supply. If you are not able to source an item, pay for it and get your paperwork in order, and have already bought the other then you will not get any grant. We applied and claimed successfully on the last round and we got the 'might sell out' stuff (IAE handling kit) immediately whereas other bits like solar energisers we left until later as they were less likely to sell out as there are many more manufacturers.

What type of fence energiser did you get? Has it been ok?
I added a fencer to my claim just to get over minimum spend threshold

By now. Think they also let you know if you have failed, however, I submitted a failed* application for a neighbour, but we never heard anything...]
* I was given an incorrect ref number!
