Esa review?

And that response, like your others when you harp on about benefits being 'free money', is of no value whatsoever to the OP or anyone else.
You seem to have a problem with benefit claimants who complain - why don't you just either deal with the original question in a civilised way or move on and join the rest of the trolls on this site - I am sure you will be in good company!
Well Mr Tumboodle -who joined this site in November 2013 and has only 97 posts to his name- you are claiming to be very familiar with me and yet I have only seen you in the last 2 weeks. How can this be?
"like your others when you harp on about benefits being 'free money'"
Would you like to show me all those other posts where I use the term "free money" ? And -if they exist- how is it that you are familiar with them?
Are you sure the troll shoe doesn't fit your foot?
In regards to this forum and this thread, I give out advice to the best of my abilities no matter whether I agree with the poster or not, but if I think they are being an obstinate idiot then I will add a few words to try to "wake them up". I think it does people some good to get some honest negative feedback about their attitude (including me sometimes). At the end of the day, it helps them to change their attitude.
So I help them with benefit advice and I help them to have a reality check.0 -

Certainly will - two on this thread - 22/11 and today for a start.
Advice is one thing - taking the matter into your own hands and making suggestions that can only inflame the situation is another. Since when were you appointed to dish out comments 'to wake them up'?
There simply was no need whatsoever to make that suggestion twice on this thread - it served no useful purpose and made you appear to be 'anti benefit claimants'.
This forum is all about advising about what people are entitled to and how to make sure they get their full entitlement.
Any other comments, such as yours, should be kept to yourself.0 -
Your post #11 quoted my post #10 remarking on the use of the term "free money" that I used in #10 and remarked about "like your others" plural, So you must have other examples, other than this thread............... To what were you referring?
As I said that may be your opinion and you are free to express it here. But my opinion is that a wake up call can help a poster to reaslise what an idiot they are being. I do it very rarely as it happens, some complaining MSEs have valid complaints.Any other comments, such as yours, should be kept to yourself.0 -

I guess you was bullied at school,your parents must be so proud.I don't care about your history of posting,i asked for info on ESA reviews not your personal opinion on free money.0

Epitome is far from being a troll. Helped me with my ESA and countless others. Epitome spends a considerable amount of time on MSE doing so.0
