Just to force home the fact that a time limit is a time limit. In the case of Besley v National Grid an employee submitted a claim just 88 seconds after midnight on the last day of the three month time limit, electronically, and it was held to be out of time!

He had tried sending it just before midnight initially but had spelt the web address wrong!

Rules are rules!
