Hi, don't post often these days lf, but had to log in to offer you some support ( whatever little my bit is worth )
I read your thread and check in from time to time to see how you are doing... it aint going too easy just now tho. It's OK to feel down when the going gets rough. The machinations of the DWP are enough to send anyone over the edge. (been there done that, got the nervous breakdown!)
I sincerely hope it gets much, much better very soon for you.
You are such a trooper, my hat is totally off to you.
Keep your chin up. Kind wishes to you and your little man.0 -
Thankyou everyone
Will be going to cab shortly checked my bank via phone and no tax credits or anything have been paid in
I'm not near the Wirral thanks though
I wish I had just gone back to my job now and I wouldn't be in the mess I'm inand now I feel I could go back aswell it's just unfair
Thinking of advertising for some cleaning work but don't no where id stànd with the dwp xx0 -
PLEASE don't go attempting to 'work on the side', natalie - getting caught out would be the worst thing that could possibly happen to you at the moment.
Not only do they stop your 'Job Seekers' it also jeopardises your claim for Housing/Council Tax Benefit - which would be a massive amount of debt to have mounting up each week.0 -
Oh no I didn't meant work illegally I would tell the dwp of course I just thought even if part time I could earn money quicker than the dwp are at sorting this mess out
Of to cab soon after dropping little one of at school xx0 -
Phew - was just a bit worried that you might be going from frying pan to fire
.
Good luck at the CAB - hope they can get their heads around all those letters that you've received.
I know what you're going through with your letters, I had about four letters from Housing Benefit last week - was still no wiser after having read them. Finished up going to see them myself just find out 'how much do I have to pay?'.
They're supposed to 'talk in plain English' in these letters - I'd just like to know where they learned their version of English :mad:.
Please don't forget my pm - I'm around if you need some help - or even just a chat/whinge/moan.

Aww thsnkyou so much i don't expect people to help out like that but I'll be eternally greatful for the help support and advice I've received on here I honestly wouldn't have known where to start without s the advice given on here0 -
Hope you get your money as promised on Thursday. Get a look on tesco online and make yourself a shopping list of all their own brand value range for thurs. Have you got a heron foods near you cos they have some cracking offers. Also I can't remember if it's been mentioned but have a look on the boost your income thread and get some surveys done online to pass the time and keep u busy, I know u don't make much money off them but even if u can bank some amazon vouchers it'll all help and u could save them up for the odd Xmas or birthday pressie for the little man?
If you need a whinge or a moan just pm me xx0
