FIT deadlines - we need somone to act?

[solarfred]

It is patently obvious that thousands of FIT registrations will miss the deadline simply because the system will breakdown. No public office is going to be able to handle this sort of workflow and there will be hell to pay. It seems we should contact someone in authority to get clarification that all valid completed registrations will be processed if they receive a correctly completed recorded delivery application to the suppliers offices. It will be easy after the event to say we didn't receive it and that's a few thousand pounds lost for many customers. It will be the installer who cops the claim for loss of earnings.
It should be an industry wide agreement and administered by one authority.
I just don't think OFGEM is going to be any use.

It certainly should be included in the review being carried out by parliament even though it has not actually happened yet.

We have people with influence on here so any ideas?

I agree - we were considering advising our customers to pre-warn the utilities but this could potentially double the work of the Fit teams and slow the process even more.

To be fair its not like they don't have the time to gear up for this so there should be no excuse really.
But saying that they do not really care what happens so I have instructed every customer to record the delivery as proof of copy..

Do you reckon the MCS website will be a able to cope with the number of registrations?
