Last time I had issues with them was i think in ‘94. It never got resolved. Appealed and they were processing it. Then the person working on it left so had to be given to someone else. Then they were processing 95 claims and would get back to it. Then yet again no one was assigned to it etc etc. Then 96 claims were given priority. And finally they said teams working on 94 claims had been disbanded as all claims had been dealt with. Wtf !!
Back then it was easier to talk to them as you could get a face to face meeting. Now it’s just a brick wall.

Mine’s still ‘validating’.
They’re shambolic.
My business is being held up by six figures of cashflow by a bunch of hoody-wearing, mouth-breathing, holding-knife-like-pen hipsters who go home to get their washing done by Mummy at weekends.

Stewardship money, a full years payment by the looks of it, dropped in a few days ago. No sign of the other one yet
We are, after last few years of waiting and having to arrange an overdraft to get through to the payment coming through it is very nice for it to come in quickly for once.

The RPA are constrained by purdah so they can’t say anything about payment progress and can’t talk to us. We should hear something official next week and we have meetings arranged.
If you want my guess judging by the noise , they are currently ahead of their performance last year with around 70% paid and on track to pay 90-95% by the end of the month.
But we won’t rest until everyone is paid or in receipt of an interim payment.
I haven’t got mine yet!
@Guy Smith I am sure the NFU will agree that we should not be subject to a lottery as to who is paid when. If there is no order, then the hit pay button must be applied to all at the same time on the same day.
