SCAF - done it...

Well, after staying up really late last night trying to fill out the form online and experiencing lots of problems (possibly due to the fact we have a Mac as opposed to a PC) I ended up filling in the paper SCAF and handing it in to DD Primary school this morning....
Bit miffed that the online application didn't work out as now I will have to wait an extra day almost for the postman to deliver the news!
(Kept getting error messages on 'blank' html pages when trying to input data and move to the next page....)
Anyone else had problems with the online applications?

I filled it in online yesterday and had the same problem. Had to go back a page a few times and then refresh and fortunately the full page came up so eventually worked - just took twice as long as it should have. :)

Have filled my form in on-line and didn't have any problems but can't quite bring myself to submit it as we have been torn between two schools. Am waiting for my DD to come home just to confirm for the final time

Can you believe, after all the angst of the 11+ and then the joys of getting through, I only forgot to sign the blinking form! Fortunatley school noticed and I went in yesterday - doh!! I did not try to submit online as so many places have "issues" with AOL that I did not want to chance it.

I have had so many problems with things not getting through - eg I cannot put ads into our local paper with AOL, I just tried to order a radiator for my DH and that did not go through either. Might be that part of my address contains the word "fab" (my initials!) and it gets blocked in teh spam filter but I do know that our local paper has something above the classifieds about AOL problems and I am paranoid that having got this far something will go wrong so far rather someone else has seen the application and can vouch that it went in IYKWIM!!
