site on tilt and click day postponed

We inform you that the click day scheduled to start at 9 am on October 5, 2020 due to a problem attributable to Tim Spa should be considered postponed until 9 am on Thursday, October 8, 2020 ”. This is the notice, just published, that can be read on the Region’s page, siciliapei.it, and that certifies a bankruptcy announcement. Today there was great expectation for the launch of the contest that encourages business investment, the Sicilia Bond, the measure that will allocate 125 million in subsidies. But after the controversy over the stability of the platform and the numerous reported jerks, the Region’s decision arrived. The start, scheduled for 9 a.m. today, has been postponed for three days.

In the morning, the general directors of the Art and Production Activities of the Sicilian Region, Vincenzo Falgares and Carmelo Frittitta, pointed out: “The move, decided during the night, is due to an anomaly of the platform managed by Tim, as well as for the company the service provider writes in a note addressed to the Sicilian Region and in which he requests the suspension of the procedure with reactivation at 72 hours. ”For his part, the Councilor for Productive Activities Mimmo Turano assured that he” regretted the problem technician communicated by Tim and apologized to the companies concerned. The Region is a customer and not a service provider. “

“Turano a casa”: political reactions

And to say that just yesterday afternoon the Region had indicated that there was no anomaly in the computer platform for the procedures related to the Sicilia Bond. A note signed by the general directors of ARIT and the Department of Productive Activities of the Sicilian Region and that had been issued after the numerous reports received by the companies that, having entered their profile where the application of their company is loaded, had found the names of other companies, including sensitive data, share capital and references. The reported risk is that many companies that would have participated in click day today would essentially have ended up clicking for other companies and not their own.

In relation to the statements relating to “dozens of complaints” of alleged cases of “data breaches” that occurred within the regional platform SiciliaPei – read yesterday’s note – we inform you that, after the analyzes carried out, the provider Tim “did not recognize As of now, there are no infrastructure and platform anomalies that could have caused an exchange of company data to subjects other than those automatically identified by Spid “and to information inherited through the company registry information system. There are also no “outside attempts to engage in fraudulent IT activities that may have resulted in a case of“ data breach. ”In the end, today, however, the Region surrendered and decreed the postponement.

A letter from a businessman

“I am a young entrepreneur from Palermo, owner of two companies in the clothing sector”, this is how the letter sent to Palermo Today. “The health emergency – he continues – which many Sicilian businessmen are forced to face tooth and nail has not only brought us to our knees, but also seems to have recovered all its strength after an apparent and brief summer respite. And at a time when receiving help from the Region is not so much a hope as a necessity to survive, another Sicilian shame comes. After the travesty of prohibition of receiving a reimbursement of expenses for the Dpi, for which requests were made ten times higher than the funds allocated in less than 30 minutes from the opening of the race, the Bonus Sicilia is confirmed as a sham with a platform nothing less than shameful, which does not even allow access to the vast majority of companies that should apply for the subsidy and instead support the now common farce of click-day, a method that strongly and unfairly penalizes those who do not enjoy a excellent connection (the fault often not attributable to the employer himself) and that perhaps – the outburst concludes – they have excellent requirements to request the bonus “.
