Friday the 13th - Bah, it's only a day. The day I get a letter from the DSS telling me my claim has been cancelled due to the change in my circumstances. What change? Well it appears I forgot to sign on so clearly I no longer need Jobseekers allowance :mad: Then I had 10 minutes on the phone (after being given 3 different numbers) giving all my details again - I was thinking 'Don't you already have this!'
What are the chances, given the deficit, of going along and getting some money. Do you think I should go and see or write it off and get on with my tiling.
