2021 Countryside Stewardship Payment

[betternextyear]

I was paid a small amount of els in December. About 20% of amount I expected. But I have not had a statement or calculation of what it was . Has any one had any follow up? I have sent an email asking for more info but dont hold out much hope for a reply. I am very close to giving up on stewardship . If it hadnt cost me £1000 for proffesional advice I would give up.

I doooont believe it.
I have recieved a reply to my email requesting a statement /breakdown of how my payment was calculated for mid tier. Reply was :,it may take several weeks for more info. Hopeless is not a strong enough word to describe them.

I would be surprised if you ever do receive a breakdown....

I am still waiting from 2 years ago!!

Anyone still waiting for payment? Its a long time till the payment window ends in June !!

Yes. Not chasing it as I'd prefer it after April 6th.

Just got our 2021 payment today.

Still waiting to hear about our new 2022 agreement.
They did send an email today apologising, saying if we haven’t heard by April, they will write explaining how we can fill in our CS claim for this year, followed 34 minutes later by another email advising us that the window for BPS and CS claims has now opened.

WTF is the point of Janet Hughes telling us about ELMs, when they cannot deal with the present situation?

You couldn’t make it up!

Still waiting, despite some intervention.

Bit like it. 20% would go straight back to hmrc.
I'll make the assumption it might not be such a problem next year!

They say money goes to money !! Meanwhile a needy case is still waiting !!

Unlike other money, I don't believe I can put down stewardship money in the "debtors" box.

Tricky one because they payment window ends in June. So strictly speaking, it isn’t a debtor.
