Social Fund Loans

I had a loan from the social fund earlier this year of just over £400 they told me i had to repay it out of my benefit at a rate of over £20.00 per week at the time we were not in the bad way with the credit crunch but now i find it difficult paying this money back.. They informed me that there is no appeal to paying back the money at a lower rate. Beware it does help but the repayments mean you have to live on less.:confused:


GOD DIDNT MAKE THE CREDIT CRUNCH IT WAS THE PEOPLE WHO THINK THIER GODS
