    But why can you not follow the simple forum rules? You can say that in Discussion Time or on MSE-generated news threads. You can't say that on threads by individual posters needing advice in the Benefits subforum. Here, you have three options:

    * Offer non-judgemental advice
    * Keep schtum
    * Report a poster privately to the MSE team if you believe they are asking for advice on benefit fraud or actively advising benefit fraud.

    It really and truly is NOT rocket science. If you just get with the program, it will all go swimmingly.

    The words, pot, kettle and black, spring to mind.
    RENTING? Have you checked to see that your landlord has permission from their mortgage lender to rent the property? If not, you could be thrown out with very little notice.
    Read the sticky on the House Buying, Renting & Selling board.

    even dla asked did i want my care needs upped for night time, would of meant more money, i declined, as i didn't need or want it.

    How did it come about that the DWP asked you if you wanted to increase your DLA, please?

    I have never heard of that happening before
    Dear Lord, I am calling upon you today for your divine guidance and help. I am in crisis and need a supporting hand to keep me on the right and just path. My mind is troubled but I will strive to keep it set on you, as your infinite wisdom will show me the way to a just and right resolution. Amen.

    Thank you, it was explained further down.

    I can see them asking if someone would want care needs considered, under those circumstances :)

    I rang them when i got my MS diagnosis to keep them up to date, no word of a lie, she asked did i want my care needs updated to enclude night time, i said no, as i felt i didn't need the extra care at night, i still feel i don't need the extra care at night...

    I don't know what job role she had, i didnt think to ask, all i wanted to do is to ring up and confirm information.
