I'm told I have 10k cr for "data point intel for alliance" but can't collect
I brought back data for a mission and turned it in for my reward. I also got a bonus for a "payment and bounty claims contract".

I went to the authority contact but there's nothing there for me to claim. Did I blow this by turning in the data before I went to get the bonus...in other words, with no data still in my possession, no bonus?

If it's for the Alliance, you have to be at a station with an Alliance faction.

You have to find a station where the controlling faction is Alliance.

Or if you don't mind losing 25% - any Interstellar Factors contact will process it for you.

Yes, it says "any station" will honor the bonus. I received the bonus in a different system than the one where I turned in the mission data. I'll check for Alliance controlling faction.

It should say any alliance station. I've been carrying an empire data thing for weeks

Open the map, select services, interstellar factor, they will buy it. There is always one close.

I used INARA to find stations with interstellar factors, went to the closest one and no go. The Alliance claim I have isn't recognized either for the full amount or with a discount...

You talked to the contact labeled interstellar factor?

I opened the factors, there were two of them, and neither one indicated the Alliance credit I was due for data mining.

That's really odd. You can try selling at a carrier. I've never had a thing I couldn't sell to mine. Currently parked in Chediq.
This is a very old thread :/

anyways, I don't think Interstellar factors work here, you need to hand in that data to Authority contact on station aligned with the respective power (Imp, Fed, Alliance)
I have like 8k of data for the Feds, I was at an IF yesterday doing something else and no option to hand it over.

I couldn't take it anymore so i just bought the cheapest ship and had the authorities fire at me.. I went up in a ball of fire instantly upon getting hit by one of their lasers.. they don't mess around XD
