Would you say myself and my partner are living on the higher end of the breadline?

Has the partner had a rise recently?

And you were only just thinking about applying for PIP last week!

New government, all is totally different now to what it was a month ago. We even have more daylight now than we had in May, if proof were needed.

Partner now works in construction with my Dad after getting his SCS (I think that is what it's called). And lol my birthday was 8th June, I'm unsure where you got the September thing from, perhaps I mislead you mistakenly on a previous post.


Yes it is after tax x

I hope you enjoy your retirement and enjoy all those lovely holidays, you deserve it. As for those remarks made by those young ladies, I think they were being sarcastic... they look down upon me for having a 'partner' at my 'young' age.

"My situation is quite a tricky one so any advice is welcome. I'm 16 (17 in September)," - hardly a mistake. Neither was all that baloney about getting PIP which takes months to apply for.

Run away and stop being silly.

PIP doesn't always take months. I applied, had the medical in the space of a week, and got my rejection two weeks later. Another family member received a decision in about five weeks and was awarded enhanced daily living. This was in areas two hundred miles apart so it can be awarded quite quickly if you live in the right area.

I imagine an outright rejection is quicker than an acceptance.

I suggest you read the OP's earlier posts before feeding the troll, according to those she didn't make a claim until 4 weeks ago.

Interestingly, she also appears to have some major issue with the Japanese, which means she doesn't like banking with HSBC (I can barely even untangle the number of errors that go into thinking that).

You were 16 two weeks ago.

I hope you enjoyed your birthday, which isn't until September.

Kids grow up so quickly these days.

Who gets £300 a week take home pay as an apprentice...at 17.

I'd be surprised if you got much more than £100 per week.

Minimum wage is £2.73 per hour multiplied by 35 hours. £95.55.

and...the intake group this year at Royal Bank of Scotland hasn't started yet...what is going on here. They don't allow them to start until they've finished the exams and had at least a few weeks off. Applications close 30th June for apprentice applications.
