The 203 has been increased to 305 (self employed included).

No. There was at least one extra box for all data I entered.

Why in your case was there 1 extra box ?
And in my case boxes both too long and short, surely all BIC and IBAN numbers have the same amount of characters ?

[mercenary for hire]

Ken do you wanna try my IBAN and see if it works?

[Rat Catcher]

At least one extra, Ken.

My BIC is 11 characters long and there's 12 boxes on the form
My IBAN is 22 characters long and there's 37 boxes on the form (23 on one line and 14 immediately underneath)

[Rat Catcher]

Maybe your printer is bollixed?

[sore]

I dunno did I fill out the postal form correctly, the amount of spaces/boxes they left fer the BIC was 2 more than I needed and the amount of spaces/boxes provided fer the IBAN was about 5 short. I treble checked it (with reading glasses on) and sober.

Anyone else have this issue ?

Apparently a few applications not processed due to iban issues

However, the department said that some payments did not go forward for a number of reasons, including claims not meeting eligibility criteria, errors with IBAN numbers or an inconsistency between PPS numbers.

I don't have a printer, I filled out the form by hand.
It would seem the online form and the postal form are a tad different.
Either way I'll wait till next Wednesday and if I get nothing by then I will ring them.

I wrote earlier I thought I heard the Minister talk on the radio about a Friday payment.  I took that to mean they'd lodge it Thurs night and we'd see it Friday.  Could she have meant they'd lodge it Friday and we'd see it Monday?

[Rat Catcher]

Depend on their/your bank... you could see it tomorrow even though it's a Saturday (from 1.00 a.m.) is it's transferred today.

Not enough boxes for the IBAN on my Covid form either so just continued outside the boxes,applied by post 19th and I've heard zip.

Surely they would have got back to you if there was a problem with it.

If I don't get anything Tuesday I'll go online and fill it in a again.

Why are you filling it out and posting it back when you can do it online ?

[Shallowhal]

Because you couldn't do it online initially, the formnhadcto be downloaded or get one from an Intreo office(but they didn't want you doin that)
Since Leo made the announcement re the increased payment you can now apply online.
