Ever had problems with points not counting?

Strange thing this year for me. I recently received a post card (this weekend) from a state I frequently apply and I thought the point total was wrong. Pretty sure they were inaccurate, but didn't have my receipt from last year. I stressed, but when I got to work on Monday I happened to find a "print screen" from my purchase last year.

I called the F&G department and they said I did not accrue a point last year. I let them know I had proof and they asked me to fax it in. They called me back and said they were not sure what happened, but agreed and awarded my point.

Very happy that I happened to print screen the application and let it sit on my desk for 8 months. Got lucky this time.

Anyone else ever have an issue similar?

What state?

I've never had problems, but I've heard of other people having issues with Wyoming.

I've never had any problems.

I think in MT they are wrong for me. They show 11 points for sheep and it should be 30

What state?

Just to black list myself....SD.

I figured it was probably my fault, but was happily surprised when it worked out. Lesson was learned....print and file.

Good Deal Miller. If it was just last year it would still be on my desk! LOL John

Received my post card from Ft Pierre.

Mine was accurate, especially the worthless NR elk, sheep, and muzzy deer.

Never had a problem anywhere and I always print out a receipt with all the information when I apply for a license, PP, etc. so this won't happen without my being able to easily resolve any situation that arises.

Not me yet, but I had to argue with MT F&G (thankfully had all the paperwork) that I was eligible to become a MT resident. The confusion was I waited to get my drivers license until after I lived here for 4 months. But didn't surprise me as I have never had luck finding someone intelligent at any licensing dept.

Then when I went to do my online draws for MT, it would't except my DL, probably because I have been hunting in MT for 7 years as a NR. So I went down to the office, she looked at my DL's and said you aren't a resident. I said well how come I have a MT R license right here? She said who gave that to you? Ummm, you... Oh..are you sure? Yep . she then argued with me that I was not entitled to have a R license. Hmm well you want me to go home and get my paperwork? No, I will believe you this time. Really? I just laughed. Never ceases to amaze me.

I also keep all my receipts for each state. Sometimes being a receipt hoarder pays off.
