  • Did i actually say that because i am on benefits it precludes me from paying my bills? No i did not!!!
    Tigger was insured by animal friends who delined payment becuase they said he had his problem before the insurance was taken out, which he did not...i argued this fact with them but being insurance they still refused to pay.
    I cant get rid of sky...this is my only way i can watch tv as where i live there is no communal ariels so cannot even get terrestrial channels and mobile is my only form of contact with family.
    Christmas...i did not have anything for christmas...
    I find your reply a bit judgemental to be honest
    As for further treatment if required, Tigger is now registered with the PDSA so i wont have any further trouble in this respect!

    Be prepared to make some sacrifices to get this paid quickly; get rid of Sky or your mobile. Got any Christmas presents you can sell?

    I am not OP but have to comment on this.

    Where I live the only way to get any TV channels is via SKY or Virgin - there is no communal aerials at all and no way to install any - and I live in London.

    Mobile - it is a necessity not a luxury nowadays.

    Personally I did not get any Christmas presents at all so would have nothing to sell - OP may be the same.

    Read properly - cat was insured and the dreaded Animal Friends refused to pay.
  • Yes i know that now...he is now registered with the PDSA which i couldnt do before as i didnt receive housing benefit or council tax benefit...i wish now i had shopped around for insurance i may have made a better choice than Animal friends!
  • Same here....i have to use sky ariel as my tv ariel

    We only get satellite tv and have unpredictable mobile reception- usually none.

    We paid for a sky box for ay ear then cancelled it and now get Freesat TV through the sky ariel.

    Costs us nothing except a tv licence.

    That is what I was thinking - my OH decided to get rid of sky by simply removing the viewing card from the box (and cancelling her sky sub) which turns the sky box into a freesat box.

    That is all fine and great for both of you but OP had insurance for her cat and there is no need to beat her up more just because AF decided to be ^^*%*%*% yet again.
