Bsl fees don't match tonnage

[FJMatt]

Talking to a friend the other day about the Bsl charges and what was to stop anybody using our Bsl numbers even though they may have only bought a small amount of firewood to obtain the number then carry on using it claim RHi while using there own timber 

Then I enter my tonnage to Bsl , pay what's owed only to find it doesn't match with the RHi claimed amount 

Hope that makes sense 

Cheers

Makes sense!

 

good question. 

 

Id doubt that the "system" is intelligent enough to match customer declarations of fuel purchased and used to supplier records of fuel supplied. May be wrong, but if I were a betting man...

 

I don't even know of any users that have been audited yet. 

 

Have you you tried phoning the helpline to clarify?

If I'm understanding right I think the cost is worked out with cubic metres so there could be a difference between their conversion rate and yours.

Also it's a stupid system. ;-)

This is what started it, mate had been audited 

He sells both biomass (ready to burn)

And loads of timber for people to cut up

Bsl number on invoice, some customers had been using his number and passing it off as there own 

Could be tricky one 

[kevinjohnsonmbe]

Tricky for the consumer! If they've fraudulently claimed, and yr mate can show qty supplied, they could be in for a sanction or loss of RHI. 

 

Be interested to to hear how it pans out!

I'll keep you posted, 

Last thing I heard was customers where getting intouch to say the Bsl number was no longer recognised when applying for RHi
