NrOSO points

[Boysground]

Given the amount they take from us they could afford a prominent spot.

Currently taking around 1 to 2 months for points to be added to mine useless bunch of #####

Fortunately, renewal due in August and now up to 30 plus points.

I applied for some to be added yesterday, and gotbthe email from them to say I'd filled the form in wrong two hours later. I've a record of all the course codes. Shall be fine.

Don’t bother with AHDB webinars … I’ve been on several in the last year and not been credited with the points!

I had an interesting chat to NROSO on Friday as I'd paid in March but it wasn't showing up on my NROSO login page.

It turned out they'd got my payment but because at that time I didn't have enough points it gets added to a list but not fully processed until you've enough points.

Also complete a intergrated pest management (IPM) plan on Nfu website to get points https://www.nfuonline.com/updates-and-information/fill-in-your-integrated-pest-management-ipm-plan/

Hope this helps

Thanks very much for this I got two very much needed points from IPM

Only thing was after I'd done the NFU/ English one I realised I should really be doing the Scottish one, very similar so I opened it on my Laptop and filled it in from looking at answer I'd given to the English one I'd done, on my phone.

CPD

Thanks, yes good suggestion

I also got this link from my Agronomist and got some points, quite interesting and good to do.

I watched a video first then printed of questions, re watch video tick answers then proceed after video to actually answer questions on line, they don't alter

Most importantly it seems if your three year term is during the Covid period their allowing you to back date meetings, sprayer tests etc.

I got told this when I got through to NROSO late March, very helpful chap told me this but wasn't sure until I saw points actually on.

Agronomist wrote up my meetings for 2019 and 2020 so hey presto 4 X 2 = 8 points added

Probably stop soon but still the policy on Friday

That kind of positive experience is frowned upon on here.

Well, maybe if they had said this was the policy.....

I hope you got it all sorted

Maybe the policy changed after you spoke to them.

I was a bit dubious myself when I was first told so that's why I waited to see the points actually on and rechecked on Friday.

Obviously anyone should check for themselves but that's just my experience and what I was told.

Just telling it the way it was for me, a bit of a nightmare getting through first time especially, tried for a couple of days as I was running out of time, I'm always friendly and polite as I'm sure most are but I was getting a solution so it's easy for me to be happy I suppose.

I'm just trying hopefully to help people get points assuming the rules haven't changed.

I've got my points in fact I've 3 carried forward now so really makes no difference to me but if I can be helpful that'll make my day

That’s been my experience too, just some like to stick the boot in quick sharp

 

[Brisel]

During the pandemic you didn't need to MOT your car etc., most of the country told to stay safe at home furloughed, but yet farmers still had to go about collecting Nroso points and having an NSTS test on your sprayer, ridiculous.

Even BASIS extended their deadline for the 50 CPD points…

Snotty email from nroso this morning demanding payment and saying it’s overdue.

just checked and it’s on direct debit.

bunch of clowns. How have we managed to let such an incompetent bunch of twits run such things?

and yes I spelt twits with an A!

I don't think we have been that sharp. They've been useless nearly every year that I've been forced to be a member and they keep increasing their fee.
