Rea Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 We've been told by a parent that he gets CVs from work. We've never accepted them before but I dont know why. Does anyone accept them if so, what should I know? I've had a brief google and it seems easy to set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnyday Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Very easy to set up Rea - I take 'Edenred' and 'Fidelity' - excellent systems both! :1b Does still depend though on parents actually notifying the voucher people when they have a bill to pay........just keep an eye on it just as you would with any other payment system......

finleysmaid Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 yes really easy (she says as her admin deals with it!!) but we haven't had any issues. The parents have to do a bit of the set up and you have to do a bit. They will need your ofsted reg number and then their HR department should do the majority of the rest. most of ours are paid in monthly payments but sometimes we get a termly amount. Most email us an acknowledgement when it is paid into your bank account. You register with whichever company the parent uses (i think we are now registered for 5!) We now promote this with our parents ...if they work for larger companies and pay tax they should be eligible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnyday Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Oh yes, forgot the Ofsted reg. bit - if memory serves (probably not :blink: ) I think that 'Edenred' actually ask for a copy of your reg. certificate....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoneyPancakes Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Lots of my parents use them. Sometimes take a while to set up but it all happens from their end so not really a problem except first payments might take a while. Computershare and Chamberchildcare are systems mine use. Have had experience with BusyBees in the past - not such a terrific experience but it might have been a one-off. H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rea Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 So if I go ahead with it, the parents company will already have an organisation so I just wait for that? Seem's easy, now I'm wondering why we've never done it before! :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lashes2508 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 we too take them and think we have 3 different companies but don't ask me how it works , thats one job i have and will not take on - my lovely treasurer does it all good luck Rea - it's another selling point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rea Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 All set up, so easy, except our church hall doesnt have a postcode so I've given the vicar more post to hand over to us! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narnia Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 It's very easy to set up. We take edenred, Computershare and Busy Bees. We've never had a problem with any of them and the money is always paid in on time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynned55 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Yep, as been said. Was really easy to set up and companies always email us when payments are made. You just need to make sure your parent notifys the company of your bank a/c details and ofsted reg #. We've been using them for around four years and never had any problems. It never occurs to me to use it as a selling point though. It's only ever been when a parent has approached us. I have put it on our invoices now and must add to our parents info book and prospectus 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
