We ive cleared loads of crap by doing a couple of car boot sales , still lots more to go as i havent even tackled the sheds yet...lol
Sarcastic son has been a big help and daughter is starting to sort me tons of stuff out , just donated a pile of university text books that will go on to ebay once the kids get there results , law and politics are good sellers , so thats a couple more weeks of bills paid .
I have to sort out another bank account because theyve shut my personal account ,i havent had a wage from the business in months , im once again credit blacklisted ( cant eat your credit rating so not that bothered ) Creditors wise some have been lovely , Anglian Water however are their usual twatish selves we had to go to the regulators last time we had financial problems !!
Found out that most banks wont accept me because I dont have a UK Passport , so will try to get round the Coop as they have social exclusion policies that arent affected by a bad credit rating .
British Gas rang to drop a bombshell, we will no longer be able to use home vending on our prepayment meter from later in the month , we must accept a smart meter , yes great, but they dont work here, we have no mobile signal of the correct type , plus if you take a British Gas meter thay are different to other suppliers and then you cant change supplier!! British Gas are currently the cheapest prepayment suppliers in this area , but we have no shop to vend a key the nearest post office is a village away but it hardly opens anymore and we dont have enough regular income to put a weeks worth of electric on at a time !! we use the odd £10 in Paypal to top up normally.
Wish me luck im off to North Kesteven Council to try and sort out the Housing Benefit , last time they just started eviction proceedings at that point and accused me of Benefit Fraud !!! Ho hum out of everything theyre the one that makes me lose the will to live , they have nice staff and a few absolute swines who just think your off the programmes on the telly .
I am certainly wishing you luck with the council, hoping that you get your housing benefit sorted. Hope you do well with the university books, my daughters did well selling theirs on when they had finished. Fingers crossed you do well at the car boot sale too. Take care.
ReplyDeleteGood luck in dealing with the council, I must look out for uni and text books to sell I hear they can be good earners. Good look at the car boot we did one and did very well, will do another one sometime.
ReplyDeleteI'm sitting here with my mouth open as I can't believe that in this day and age when information can pass so quickly between agencies that you are having this fight on your hands. I wish you luck with the car boot sale and hope the children's results do you proud and thee books fetch mega bucks for you. Thank goodness for banks like the Coop, the big ones are just money peddling sh*ts. Do you have a local councillor who can take your case to the right people?
ReplyDeleteIts part of the conservative party's policy for benefits claimants, under the policies for Universal Credit areas they are trying to create a "hostile environment " no information is shared unless it can be used against you , you are to blame for any errors made in their calculations , and will be accused of fraud at every point .

ReplyDeleteplease dont be offended , we are not at the stage where we need donations and truthfully i hope we never get there , the kids are brilliant and will help us in any way they can and we will manage , just because that is what we have always had to do .
