Why was the value of the competing claim on MyScreenrights different to the amount I was paid?

Occasionally the amount paid to you may be different from the estimated value of a competing claim on MyScreenrights.

The estimated value of a competing claim on MyScreenrights could be different to the subsequent amount paid to you for one (or both) of the following reasons:

1. The amounts on MyScreenrights for competing claims are estimates only. The estimate assumes that the competing claim is resolved 100% in your favour. If your claim is less than 100%, you can expect less than 100% of the estimated value.
2. The total estimated amounts includes royalties already paid to you. If you have already been paid royalties for the program you will be able to see this on the competing claim in MyScreenrights. We provide a breakdown on any amounts paid and unpaid, however the total estimated amount put into the question by the competing claim includes both paid royalties and unpaid royalties.
