Exactly the same, spoke to them on Friday to be told payment window not open for another two weeks
Finally got ours paid!

Filed a complaint online to ofgem. Wrote a stern (not stroppy!) email.
Had a response from that in a couple of days and then payments of over £8k made within a week of that.

Get emailing!

For various reasons I have not claimed for about 9 months so I have just entered the readings for the various quarters, do I need to be concerned that I will not get paid or do they just cough up for back dated claims?

Just wondering if anyone has experienced a delay in their quarterly payments for the Dec-March 18 payment? Logged into Ofgem e serve to check submission made mid March and it still says 'in review'.
15 weeks and still waiting for payment on one of my boilers!!!

We’re finally up to date after 10 months of delayed RHi payments. Nice to get it sorted.
Wood prices are going to get frightening. Got a years worth of wood all stacked on our yard all paid for. If prices keep increasing the RHi payments will only cover the wood used.
Yes not looking good.
All biomass going through the roof ?
Back to fossil fuels if stays like this.
Government got targets for renewables but not looking good these days unless they got better plans ?

We paid £43 a tonne for wet spruce. Paid £40 a tonne last November for Larch and that supplier quoted me £65 a tonne for it a few weeks ago.

So he's dreaming then
Hes dropped softwood poss 5 acre wen hes finished
landowner said burn the brash .
He thought chip for boiler
So he'd do well to get £40 p ton if its chipped sort of by the road side ..... if he could load .
