Genuine Waspi communication?

mookev

My wife, who is one of the waspi women, has been sent a communication from kaliaborcollege.org wanting information about her and suggesting she should register to claim or she will miss out. I presume this is just another scam and any communication would come directly from DWP?

That website is genuine - think the email that you've had isn't.

Are you able to check the link in the email without actually clicking on it?

Better idea: delete the email, unless you think that a college in India would be getting itself involved in Waspi matters...

Sorry, I may have caused confusion. There's no link to the guv website, just links say register now etc inviting to be pressed. Not going to.  As far as I know, there's still no chance of compensation so nothing to register or apply for!

And if Rachel from Accounts (or any other person in that part of London) still have this in her in-tray communications will certainly be by letter and won't give enough notice to make a claim

In my Google feed, I see a few items that mention WASPI.
As they are nothing to do with DWP I skip over them.
There will be no need to 'register'.

According to some supporters from another fifties women’s group CEDAWinLAW or Backto60 as they used to be called, the WASPI campaign is a scam! Instead of Legal action they are proposing mediation with the Secretary of State for Pensions Liz Kendall. I’m finding this all very confusing. Does anyone know why there appears to be several groups campaigning for different objectives?

Different groups because they have different objectives. Also too many egos to all fit into one group...

You've just given your own answer... mixture of infighting/personality issues and genuine ideological differences (some people more radical than others).

And as Rachel from Accounts has an empty piggy bank - none of these disparate groups have any hope at all of success !

Are these groups crowd-funding from the "victims" and, if so, is the spend on those funds audited?

Just trying to understand the motivation for continuing on what is patently a lost cause.
