Inaccuracy of Bounty list.

[LiffeySaysHappyNewYear]

Nappy's question on the other thread made me start this.

I think the two lists (nso) and bounty differ so wildly for these reasons

1. Bounty list completely misses ALL home births (not sure what percentage that would be though)
2. Bounty certainly go to nhs hospitals, but I'm not sure about hospitals like The Portland, I can't imagine it somehow, could be wrong though
3. it assumes that everybody registers the SAME name they provide to the Bounty rep within 12 hours of the birth. I'm sure a LOT of people change their minds.
4. You're not obliged to give the bounty rep details, with dc2 I didn't. I just took the bag to pick out the children's allowacne part.

There are probably other reasons too.

I didn't give bounty my details.

I took the pack though.

what is bounty?

Well I for one didn't give Bounty any details and I got the pack too.
Isn't it embarrassing that our national results aren't going to be released because of lack of money? All the new results from other countries have been coming in for weeks. I think it reflects badly on us

I thought they were released. What is that other list then?? Was that the bounty list??

Yes it'd be interesting to see the two side by side, when proper ones are released.

I didn't give Bounty any personal details - IIRC the midwife guy who discharged me just gave me the bag and said there might be something useful once I'd waded through the marketing bumf .
Plus I can't be the only one who had not decided on my baby's name at that point?
I'll sign that ONS petition...

Who cares?

Sorry I meant why are the 2 lists so different when they are both meant to be released by bounty. There was the one someone linked to which was meant to be released by bounty, but if you go onto the bounty website and look at the list there it is different.
