The Day Has Arrived

Wednesday is the day. I've seen my IP today and he is happy with my SOA and says that £30 Sky and £30 Vodafone will be fine! If not i'll just have to cancel them.

I'll keep you updated and post after I have been to court.

    Mobile should be allowed as long as its not too excessive...BUT the OR will more than cert cancel the Sky TV (its classed as a luxury)
    The following are examples of what is not generally treated as allowable expenses (unless there are special circumstances):
    Gym membership, any sports expenses or club membership

    Additional pension contributions to enhance a pension

    Private healthcare insurance

    Money for gambling, alcohol or cigarettes

    Satellite TV

    Broadband internet costs (unless shown to be necessary for paid employment or education)

  • Though if you want to carry on paying for Sky out of any surplus then you can just don't put it on your SOA.

    What ever you do, do not put Sky on your SOA. It will certainly be disallowed leaving the OR an extra £30 to play with.
