I hope no one is waiting on a combiclamp through the scheme. I’ve heard they now have 2 years worth of orders sitting infront of them
We have a squeeze crush and a combi clamp ordered through the scheme (by the book, after confirmation of acceptance). Received a letter the other day from local stockist advising May/June delivery.

My supplier has assured me that I’ll get it in July,hope he’s right 🥴🤞

I'm waiting for one, been told July, that's come in from the original Sept delivery.

Hopefully they manage to maintain the build quality when churning them out, that's my main concern.
 
I paid for item I applied for at start of January and sent in claim for same time.... finally got paid in end of March!!! Dont Think the computer system was ready to settle claims. I did phone up few times to confirm everything was in order!!!

Did everyone else put in there claim net of VAT?

I couldn't find any guidance yes or no. But didn't include vat in claim amount.
Yes, net of VAT.

We claimed on 30th March and payment came through 3 weeks later, Hamilton office. Although the bulk of our claim is for a crush that isn’t due in until end of May.
