Which is the best scheme to use to claim free milk? Also do they send it to you or do they just reimburse you costs? many thanks

l use coolmilk milkman delivers 3 times a week (thats just how often he is in my area) and claims the cost through them direct, l confirm weekly by email that l have recieved the amount claimed for and make any changes over the phone.

I buy the milk with my weekly shop and claim back through www.nurserymilk.co.uk at the end of the month. They pay it straight into my bank and I always know I have the correct milk even if children vary.

The government has been looking into the free milk delivery services as some have been charging the government way over the odds for milk. If you use a delivery service you are responsible if they over deliver and would be liable to repay the govt if you were checked.

I use Scotts. Very reliable service, delivered early morning once a week. No payment from me, no paperwork no emails to check the amount I have used.
If I need any more (I never have to date) one easy phone call sorts it out.

Same here though I did have a problem with them at the start as they couldn't get access to my building to deliver but have to say they were so helpful and sorted it asap.

I use asda delivery and I just keep the delivery receipts as proof of purchase.
