  1. H Jojo, thanks for replying. I haven't received anything to say my benefit has been adjusted yet and it is still being paid into my account in full. I am confused as I wasn't asked to show any bank statements. I do not have any savings now that they are not aware of. Were you asked to produce anything? how long was it before you heard anything after your initial interview? I've got myself in such a state of worry I'm not sure what to think or do.
  2. I wasn't sure if your reply was for me, but I ender if you are able to advise? I had an appointment with the CAB they helped me draft a statement to give to the interviewer regarding my situation/circumstances and overpayment. I also drafted a similar letter to the council regarding my housing benefit, which I posted straight away. I had a very brief interview and wasn't given the chance to give my written statement, even though I said I had one. I was asked if I had a ISA, I showed him my current ISA statement. He asked about my current account, again I showed him my statement. He asked if I had any other income and if I had any other accounts with any large pockets of money in, to both I replied no. He then said I was free to go and I would receive a letter and there would be a reduction to my current benefit. Now I'm very anxious, I have been claiming for 3 years, surely he has a record of money that has been and gone in my accounts, there were no questions regarding any other past savings accounts, but surly they have knowledge of these? so I'm not sure what to do now? should I send my CAB statement in the post to him?
  3. I wasn't sure if your advice was for me?…I had my interview this week, I wasn't asked many questions, only do you have an ISA (yes here are the statements) do you have any other savings (no) do you have any other income (no) and that was it I was told i'd receive a letter with the new calculations…this has really confused me as I had printed off all my statements for the past 3 years and prepared a written statement with my confession but he wasn't interested in seeing it….so now I'm not sure what to do? do you have experience in these things?
  4. I am in a similar situation. I had my interview and gave statements to show my current financial situation but the officer did not ask about any previous savings accounts. Just said he would send the paperwork off and I would receive a letter with the revised benefit amount. Surely they would want to see bank statements etc for the past 3 years and ask me some more questions? should I be worried? I don't want to be naive
