Hi again
It has been about 3 month now since I emailed the OR and advised of a change of circumstances (for the worse not the better). Asked if they wanted a new income and expenditure form filling out as a result.
Also asked if it would be ok to work overtime to build up a rent deposit as well as meet reasonable living expenses (I currently have a deficit according to my earnings vs reasonable expenditure, this is not actually confirmed with the OR).
Heard absolutely jack diddly squat. I haven't bothered ringing because I have actually been off work a lot due to ill health but I am now in a position to perhaps work overtime or apply for a new post in order to earn some extra cash.
Having not heard anything....do I assume they are not bothered about what I do? Should I ring (really don't want to and rarely have time during their opening hours)?
Any advice from anyone who may know please reply, any help appreciated as always.

If you worked more regularly you would need to inform them of the change anyway, no matter what was previously said or asked, so may be better to bite the bullet now as see how things lie before you take on the hours?Free/impartial debt advice: National Debtline | StepChange Debt Charity | Find your local CAB

Hi Fermi
Thanks for the reply. Tried to ring but not available. (big sigh).
Do you know if there is anyone on here who would be able to answer the query or anyone who had a similar experience?
In terms of the rent, are they in a position to say no and make me live with my parents for three years? Hope not!
