Hi,
Been reading about the snoring articles and how you can claim for it.
Not sure how much truth is in this, but I suffer frome sleep apnea and diabetes.
Anyone been down this road to try and claim before I make a bit of a fool of myself and ring up.
Thanks

You can't claim anything for sleep apnoea and having to use a CPAP machine.
If it's keeping your average AHI below 5 then it's doing its job. If it's not then go back to the sleep disorder dept at the hospital and talk to them.3 -
These articles advising people that various conditions eg sleep apnoea, snoring, diabetes, arthritis, fibromyalgia etc mean they are entitled to PIP are really misleading.
It all depends on meeting the published criteria.4 -
Claim what exactly, who from, and for what reason?All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.3 -

That's how it works for me.
I would also suggest registering as a priority customer with your electricity supplier.0
