dmg, now you know how the benefit assessors must feel! newbie, you were quite rude and I think you misunderstood the help that dmg was trying to give you. She was trying to stop you wasting your time further, not having a dig.0

People have helped you. It's not their fault that you are not entitled to Housing Benefit!(AKA HRH_MUngo)

Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton0 -

You're very welcome and thankyou for all the thank yous.
I do think it is unfair of you to say no everyone has been helpful though! Everyone gave you very good advice! I was only able to break it down for you as i am a Housing and Council Tax Advisor (woe is me lol)

I didnt say it was their fault, and nor am I blaming anyone, the ONLY person to explain things was jezzebell, everyone else jumper on the band wagon, okay maybe I wasnt entitled to housing benefit but not one person explained it the way jezzebell did.0 -

I'm sorry but being told "your not entitled to housing benefit" isnt exactly helpful but you explained it all, thats what I asked for to begin with, not just "your not entitled to it". Thanks again for explaining it all, very much appreciated.0
