  1. I know exactly how you are feeling - I had a letter on Saturday afternoon - so had all weekend and a bank holiday to worry myself sick over it! I rang the council number (it says it's to do with housing/council tax benefit), on the letter. The person it is signed by out of the office until next week! Managed to speak to a colleague to ask for more information. I was told it is due to a change in circumstances and to do with my job. Only thing I can think of is I did 4 days work at the racecourse just before Easter. If they have said this is what it is can they 'change' the information? It seems crazy if this is what it is as I won't be doing it again anyway, as it was a casual thing - I have been so scared and upset, I have never committed any offence or done anything wrong and feel stupid and embarassed about the whole thing. Couldn't they just have phoned or written an ordinary letter to enquire about it? Crazy thing is if I could get a job that either had more hours or paid more I wouldn't need to claim any of the benefits in the first place, worked and paid taxes since I was 18 and this is how I am made to feel! This country stinks! Seems you can't get a decent job these days (I'm on minimum wage, part time and a lone parent), prob be better off claiming out of work benefits! Can't win........
