    because its a flawed system basically.
  • right well i get income support for me and my kids i get disability living and mobility for my 5 year old son and then the carers? so i definatly dont get it?
  • same here we are under the crosby station as well... im sure its broken lol
    looking at the 7 day forcast for crosby it looks like we will never get a payment!! might be fine if you actually live in crosby but here is the welsh hills its a lot colder. so we get no help. totally unfair as usual everyone knows we are having a real bad cold snap everyones heaters r on max to keep warm, so it should be isssued to all.
