Well report her. The council or whoever will look into it. Be a good citizen and voice your concerns. It can be done without them knowing who said it. If they are falsly receiving anything they shouldn't, they need to be stopped. If they are entitled to it, no harm done as they'll be able to clear it out with the council straight away.

After all the number of people making fraudenlent is costing honest tax payers hundreds of millions each year, they may or may not be one of them but if you suspect it you need to report it.

All it takes for potential benefit fraud to prosper is for the honest to say nothing. Report it anonomously.........

I would love to report someone but can never get the courge to do it. I know it they will not know who it is but just cannot do it.

My DD has a friend and they are both in 6th form. Her friend get EMA of £30 per week my DS gets nothing. This friends mum works full time as does her step dad both in well paid jobs (well above min wage ) Her mum still uses her old married name and I believe she never informed anyone she had remarried as she married abroad and it was all kept pretty hush hush. Before marrying she lived with this guy and I remember her one saying to ma about her Family Credit (whatever it was called before CTC) I believe she is still caliming as a single parent as she was widowed before marraige and probally alos gets a wodows alowance. Her DS is still at school but has been working since 15 and her mum takes £20 per week off her also. To get full EMA I believe your family income has to be something like less than £15k so she must be lieing to them.

My hubby works and I am on IB but we have to much money coming in to even get my DS a reduced EMA. They do not take into account that hubby pays his ex £70 per week CSA so reducing our income by £4k which would make my DS get £10 per week EMA. As it stands my DS I give my DS £20 per week as she does not get the EMA and that is all I can affford.

IT MAKES ME SO MAD:mad: :mad:


Sorry rant over.

Go on Doelani, shop them to the council! It's money out of your and our pockets she's spending.

I get DLA and to anyone looking at me on the days/times I can go out would think there was nothing wrong with me. I get some glares when I park in a disabled bay even though I have a badge that I am entitled to use. I am also in terrible pain but you cannot always see someone's disability easily. When I am having a bad day I cannot even open the car door let alone drive - no-one sees me like this! I found the whole process of claiming DLA a nightmare and I had to have proof of my symptoms from my GP, specialist and independent doctor. Please be sure of your facts before shopping anyone - I would be devastated if I was reported for being able to go out on good days.

Loads of people get benefits and thankfully they satisfy the requirements of the scheme rather than having to satisfy the neighbours.
