FETF grant claim . Is a purchase via PayPal going to be a headache?

[Jimmy the bull]

I’m shortly looking at making a claim for a number of items that we were successful in getting the grant for and couple of them were purchased via a PayPal account linked to the farm business account, has anyone done this? or is it going to be an issue? I know the RPA will want invoice and proof of purchase from the account ?

So long as you have an invoice and can prove the money has left an account linked to the business I can’t see how it will be a problem? You’ll be able to get a PayPal statement showing where the money went from and to like with the bank I’d have thought?

Yes can get a PayPal statement and it has the last 4 digit of the linked bank account on each transaction. I know from last year they can be a bit twitchy , I was asked if to resend bank statements as they didn’t have the bank logo on the top even though they said Lloyds . It was rather odd.
