Its all about give and take:rotfl:so an attractive liar who cooks well would be worth staying with? some blokes......
presumably if the mortgage is in her name then the claim for benefits to pay the mortgage was her responsibility. as such, is she not equally culpable in the fraud? bring the cheater down with you, i say!
Too many people get excited about what is often just a shag.
The relationship could work on other levels..!Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..0 -

I think you'll find that is a lie - you were lying by omission.0 -
Its funny how when people are 'muddled' they always come out with money going to them - they never manage to get in a situation where they claiming too little.0

If anyone else has any advice, I would really appriciate anything constructive.
In fact I am so worried what is going to happen to me. I have had a string of bad luck and this seems to be my mistake and already suffering from depression and anxiety, am at a loss.
dmg24 - not what I wanted to hear but good advice. Thanks
Tread carefully, the old saying hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, could bite you on the backside, if your unfaithful other half decides to shop you after you leave her. Then your honesty or not to the jcp might not even matter, they may get tipped off and come looking for you. Lazy civil servents love any easy statistic.. And that is all you will be.
Honestly though, you should have told them about your other property in the first place, but then you wouldnt have qualified for help so I can understand the motivation but don't sympathise with it. Still I hope you find a way out of the situation!Bankruptcy and Supporters club... Member 340.

Thanks again everyone - what a mess.
Does anyone what will happen when I tell them?0 -
Yes, and whilst I understand that, temporarily, your head might be 'in the clouds' over a death in the family, it doesn't stay that way. You could have owned up any time between then and now.0

That's what I'm going to do. Please try not to be so judgmental. I want to sort this out.0 -
When you tell them they will take some details from you. At this point it is possible that they will suspend your payments whilst it is investigated. They may ask for further information in writing, and it is quite possible that they will call you in for an interview.
I would tell them as quickly as possible, both for the possibility that your ex will contact them first, and in case they realise what has happened. Whatever happens, you will be better off contacting them before they contact you.
(You might get a comment from a poster called liam9 - if you do, just ignore. He is a troll who will hopefully soon be banned.)Gone ... or have I?0 -
