    I dont know if im posting this correctly or not!! but was the only way i could find to post a question ,so soz if im in the wrong place.
    My question is this,i have just had a visit from a surveyor for am insulations all pre booked,very helpful professional lady,and i can have my loft and walls insulated for under 300 pounds,however i do not want the work done until start of sept as we have holidays ect to pay for,I was told that unfortunately if i did not have the work done within 8 weeks i will lose my grant as it wil be,recorded in my central records thst i declined this grant and would find it difficult to recive another one,this seems very unfair simply because i cannot afford it at the moment,the surveyor was very apologetic but said they where the in structions given to her by the local branch.
    Has anyone on here heard of the central records ( cos i cant find them ) or come accross this situation,many thanks and again apologies if i have come to the wrong place,but it is quite upsetting .:(

    Claire, why can't you send ebay stuff back? If it's from a registered business seller then they have to accept returns.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
