Do they normally send a confirmation to let you know they are dealing with it, or do you just wait for a voucher to turn up ?
Thanks
if you had applied on the 14th you would have had youre voucher by now

I sent my form in and heard nothing for about three weeks so I emailed them. They acknowledged receipt and gave me a date for delivery of the voucher. I'm not impressed with the system they have.
Which email address did you use please mate, I will give what you did a go.
Thanks

Anyone know if you can get one of the double buggies along with a bike on this scheme? Is that considered an accessory?

Got a £500 voucher

Is there any way to keep a track of your payments and/or final payment date ?

Are you going to be taking your child to work with you ?
I don't think Halfords will be allowed to sell you that under the current conditions of Royal Mails cycle to work scheme.

If someone was taking their child to work because there was a workplace nursery, what would the current conditions of the cycle to work scheme say?
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
