Maybe thats what they do after receiving an app, cant get their hands quick enough to get hold of the fee and throw the app away on a box full of old apps after all.
Same happened with us, the cheque was cashed so fast , even the biometrics happened within 3 weeks then they do nothing else except cause worry and heartache with unacceptable delays, they should be ashamed with the lack of service but i guess they couldnt care less.
