  • What are these extra charges they are talking about for non-payment? Today 9:43 AM
    The lady on the phone went on about fees going into hundreds for a bailiffs visit, which I explained was totally unrequired and also administration fees for letters etc.
    Odd jobs?
    Is that whilst claiming benefits?
    Oh yes of course! Actually No, some may say it is stupid, but out of principle I choose not to claim benefits. I have never signed on or claimed for any other help as I have always been able to earn more than the benefits could offer, maybe not enough to live comfortably, but more than the dole and personally i was also scared of the rut that claiming could drop you into. Before you ask, I did register as self employed during this period.
