  • Extremely lucky! Although im another area, i've been waiting 15 1/2 weeks so far for housing benefit to be sorted!


    Yeah, all I can do is thank God my HB came so quick because last time it took much longer and there was a couple errors which delayed my claim. Now I dont have to worry about covering the full rent myself at least.

    Hopefully you'll get yours sorted out soon though. Cya.
  • No most councils wont pay you pcm,
    you will either be paid fortnightly or 4-weekly

    When you go down to the council, ask for it to be fast tracked and it will normally be sorted out within 2 weeks
