I'm sorry honeybee, i'm just really anxious about thinking about the future when my folks die, dealing with wills & the house. It will be my house. It's where i grew up so my heart is here but i'm not sure if my heart would be here if my parent's weren't. what could i do with the house, rent it out to make money bearing in mind i'm on a benefit. I live in the city & prefer to live there as opposed to the family home in a village on the outskirts. I'm thinking that there may be newer options other than selling or renting out. Many Thanks

Hi Couldn't find anywhere else to write this, i guess it could be a housing law issue.. So i'm an only child & the folks are getting on & they live on outskirts of city, i live in city. They are on at me about what's going to happen to the house when they die. It's my inherritance, i don't want to live there but also i couldn't sell it. Can anyone give me advice on my options. Regards & thanks Gaz

I was in shock by how it went. I've been wondering if after they had their contract stopped, they've been told to work in a different way. The one i went to with my partner was a structured question & answer. The lady who was my examiner even spoke of her anxiety that she suffered from & told me that she would make sure in her report that i would get what i deserve, nothing like how i heard ATOS were! I hope that the way i was received is nationwide & that i wasn't just lucky!

Not sure if i should start a new thread about my results, let me know if so but here goes. Along with the medical being totally different to the one my partner went to some years back, so is the results/letter process. Hers was a list of what each point stood for & whether or not she had scored that point, also a list of the points. Mine was just a letter telling me that my claim for ESA has changed, my allowance has gone up a few £ & that i'm being transferred from WRAG to Support allowance!

Thanks, i just think mt dad was naive as the bloke came round & showed on his laptop an endorsement by Terry Wogan.

ok will do, i think my dad was naive to think that when the bloke came round, put his laptop on & there

so it's best to stay well clear??, my dad has an appointment with the guy next friday, apparently to cut £300 a year from utilities!

ims21, not sure what you mean!!? renegadeimp, i'm guessing your saying by the 'social media' thing that itr would be the only way to get hold of someone working for a dodgy firm?

Hi I'm posting on behalf of my dad who met a person he semi-knows who now works as a distributor for bestutilitybills.net & he says he can save up to 25% per year on gas, electric, phone contracts. No matter what good deal he now has, he can do better! I am new to this & wondering if it is legitimate, can anyone give me any advice or point me in the right direction! Many Thanks Gaz

Thanks, i will let you know, she actually told me that she would recommend me for the benefit. It went so well i think there is a sting in the tail. Sorry for late reply, i usually get email notifications.

is nobody bothered anymore, i thought my last post would be the most significant of all!!?

Hi & thanks honeybee. It was nothing like i thought it may be or anything like the one i went to with my partner. The Atos worker was lovely & reassuring that she will get me on this benefit i deserve, she said she suffered anxiety too. She was also being genuine, making gags about the noisy street outdoor & if i wanted the window closing. I recall the one i went to with my partner, he was clicking boxes on the computer all the time, hence the formulaic, cold way i expected. It was just half an hour of layed back talking about anxiety & only minimal questions. I did a lot of talking & spoke thoroughly. I couldn't believe when she said it was over... Just a few things though. She knew about my additional stress last year concerning my dads heart attack, so she's read the esa50, as that's the only place i mentioned this, i also mentioned in the esa50 about my flat, that i had it for my future when i'm ready, slowly building up to what i need to be. She didn't mention this & i think that was on purpose to see if i mentioned it!!! I wanted to but didn't if that makes sense.

Yes i agree Fletch am sorry, just anxious. T-minus 4 hours to go now. All i can do is take all your advice & leemack's post which i've read a million times & hopefully i'll get a nicer person than the one my ex got. I'll wait till i get the letter & then go to the council. Losing my flat would be the final heap of dirt on my coffin.

ok so i get option for mandatory reconsideration in the letter telling me if i have passed or failed? Do i chose this or just go straight to appeal? I guess it will all be in the letter. Also as it's different, i don't have to notify housing benefit? thanks

ok thanks, do you mean a letter of reply's i will have as i know that my mind goes blank when i panic. I can take a piece of paper in there with things written to help me. I'm panicking about if i fail & i'm put on JSA, i will have to go to the jobcenter to show i'm looking & applying for jobs when i can't do anything like that. Because atos were wrong. I spend a lot of time at my family, but i do have a flat that io want to eventually move in to. I go there some good days & come back. Should i mention this. Part of my anxiety is living at home, but i can't be on my own yet?
