    rosie-posie, seems like I am the only one being told off here for some reason??, is being allowed to have visitors whilst on benefits anything to do with giving advice about getting correct beneifits? lol, wasnt even my thread I started lol,and whos Martin?, I think its because i did start a thread about beneifts fraud on another date....

    I was just making a point to you rosie-posie, that dont get too worked up about it, because you are not doing anything wrong, and theres those that do, yet are ok, so dont fret. Just tell the lovely neighbour female to un poke her nose out that should keep her quiet,lol.

    I would NOT even worry, because I have a family memeber who IS living with a relative of mine as a couple would in every way do!, yet she is claiming single parent tax credits, and before this claimed single parent income support, and even though I have on 2 occassions rang the beneifit fraud line, she still is in reciept of these beneifits, and still lives a luxury lifestyle because the partner ( my relative) runs a very succsessful buisness, begs the question do they actually do their jobs in the goverment, which I dont think they do, too many people I know claim single person beneifits yet have partners, just shows the state of our beneifit systmes really doesnt it, and us tax payes foot the bill, theres a word for that, "Shafted" by our own lovely goverment....
    So dont worry, because people who are actually committing beneifit fraud are getting away with it, as long as what you say is true, you wont have any problems.

    yet another one ofthese kind of couples going on. I know ssooo many, and I agree with your post. Close friend of mine rang the fraud line about 8 months ago and todate still going about their business
