    If you are still in pre-production it is because your financing has not been approved/confirmed as of yet. The only thing required to move forward is the monetary issues for it to be changed to 'in production'

    I have exactly the same problem! My bank account has not been touched however there are sufficient funds there to proceed. Could it be due to the fact I used the EPP scheme and they are verifying my address with my company?
