    There is no limit to the amount of capital you can have with Incapacity Benefit as it is not a means tested benefit.

    I am quite concerned that someone who purports to be a CAB Advisor would say otherwise. :o
    Gone ... or have I?

    CABADVISER gives the impression that you are one. Bad advice is worse than no advice.

    I dont think dmg is the figure 24 in any of those categories.

    Spot on, though if I keep eating those Wispa bars I might be one of them ... ;) x

    I have not had one of those for ages, I think they stopped doing them and then brought them back, I really fancy one now!

    I think if you want an impression to go to the art gallery and to not make assumptions on people.

    I think it is a pretty fair assumption.

    My word I hope CABADVISER is not a cab adviser, I promise we are not like that. He should be reported and removed off this board because he is giving out bad advise under the name of a citizens advice bureau adviser. I have seen other advise he has given out on another thread and if he is an adviser he should give it up because he certainly is not suitable for the role.
