I hope no one is waiting on a combiclamp through the scheme. I’ve heard they now have 2 years worth of orders sitting infront of them
We have a squeeze crush and a combi clamp ordered through the scheme (by the book, after confirmation of acceptance). Received a letter the other day from local stockist advising May/June delivery.

My supplier has assured me that I’ll get it in July,hope he’s right 🥴🤞

I'm waiting for one, been told July, that's come in from the original Sept delivery.

Hopefully they manage to maintain the build quality when churning them out, that's my main concern.

Did everyone else put in there claim net of VAT?

I couldn't find any guidance yes or no. But didn't include vat in claim amount.
Yes, net of VAT.

We claimed on 30th March and payment came through 3 weeks later, Hamilton office. Although the bulk of our claim is for a crush that isn’t due in until end of May.
