Submit your EA/NRW catch returns online!

[Teifi-Terrorist]

A new service is being launched that allows you to submit your catch returns online. A great idea and should be very well received - certainly makes life easier.

https://catchreturn.service.gov.uk/r...execution=e1s1

Please do provide some feedback on here if you get around to using it.

Tried to use this service and cannot get past first stage.
It just doesn't recognize or acknowledge my licence number.
Have tried four times and will give it one more shot later.

I had a go for about 10 minutes!
Then decided it was easier just to write it all out!

That is unfortunate. I see that it is a BETA version. As such, still ironing out some bugs I would assume.

That's true TT, was on the phone with them for a while yesterday, and the person I spoke to couldn't sort it out.
Hope it's sorted for next year, I don't think I'll have enough A4 paper for all of my catches next year.

Just used the catch return service, couple of minutes and it was done and an email from them to confirm my return as completed.

I used the service a few weeks back and all worked well and I received a confirmatory email by way of receipt. This morning by post, I've received a reminder to submit my catch return - so obviously some integration issues!

I've religiously submitted my return every year by email (last 2 years) or paper copies (previous 10 years). I don't think there has been a year when I haven't received a 'reminder to submit'.
Sent my 2014 return two weeks ago.

Received my reminder yesterday.

...as night follows day.
