I have to fill in an income and expenditure form. Are there guidelines as to what are acceptable costs anywhere? For instance, I dont want to put down £100 per week for food to be told £80 is the allowable limit!

I have recently had to arrange my Dads funeral and was asked for a £2,000 deposit. The total funeral costs for a very simple affair, came to £4,534.00. I was told,if deposit wasn't paid by the day of the funeral they would not be able to go ahead with proceedings. Considering I had only just registered his death that very day,I explained that insurance policies had not been sorted yet and I hadn't the money. They still inssisted I had to pay. Luckily my friend stepped in and paid it for me. As you can imagine, this was a very traumatic day for me. Please could someone tell me if this deposit was higher than normal and were they within their rights to ask this of me? Thankyou debgirl

Ordered a kitchen sink online and in the confirmation email: Just out of curiosity I thought you were allowed a reasonable amount of time to inspect the goods?

First hello to all and thanks in advance for any and all help given. Sorry it is a long post but it is a complicated problem. (At least I think it is) Outline: I have been disabled for a number of years now, 12 months ago (Jan 2012) I had an accident at work that left me in a condition where I could not work, now a year later on advice from my doctor I am in a position to return to work on a phased return. The company sent me to an independent doctor for evaluation and she agreed with my own doctor of phased return as did the company HR dept and the various other support services I am involved with. However my employer says "Yes you can return on a phased return, but for the first 6 weeks you will have to do 40Hrs per week training (this is full time hours) and that I will have to stay seated for periods of two hours or more, their doctors report clearly states that at most I would be able to stay seated for 20 minutes at any given time. Background: The accident happened in work during normal working hours whilst carrying out my normal duties but my employer denies liability of any kind. During my sickness I was TUPE'd over to a new company 2 days before I was due to return to work (June 04 2012). The 'new' employer had not been notified by the 'old' employer of my imminent return to work. The 'new' employer refused to allow me to return to work at that time on the grounds I would need a 'DSE' assessment and they would need to install any specialist equipment. After this process they kept stating their concern over cost of said equipment and concern that I would not return to work, discussions went on for 2-3 months in October they stipulated the 40 hours a week. I have been claiming SSP and obtaining Sick notes from the doctor to cover the period from their first refusal to allow me to return. Questions: 1. Am I being discriminated against (I.E. If an able bodied person needed a new chair they would have it in minutes) 2. Is the demand I do 40 hours a week training for the first 6 weeks a reasonable request? 3. As the employer refused me access to work should they pay my wages or should I be claiming SSP? 4. Can they insist that I stay seated for prolonged periods that all medical people involved state would be detrimental to my health? CrustyRusty

If one sends a letter to a DCA querying that a debt is enforceable - no more, no less and asking for the letter to be passed on to the relevant department and the DCA takes exactly 362 days to reply (by second class post) also misquoting legal precedent with obvious intent to confuse/mislead... ...what woud be a reasonable length of time to wait before replying back to them with an appropriate response? My assumption is 362 days by second class post. Or would this be frowned upon by a court?

Hi, I am (unfortunately) having to go to through an employment tribunal process against my present employer. I had an initial case management discussion meeting (CMD) a few months ago. At that meeting my employer's legal representative stated that my employer intended to call several witnesses. The names of these witnesses were not listed in the CMD agenda - even though I had openly listed the names and number of my potential witnesses - and I had expected the employer's side to do the same thing for the CMD meeting. My employer's legal representative stated at the CMD that they (the employer's legal rep) didn't know the names of witnesses, just the number to be called. I have since emailed my employer's internal Legal section several times requesting a list of witnesses names. My employer's Legal section has not even acknowledged receipt of my email requests let alone supply me with the list of names. This refusal to name their witnesses has the potential to weaken my case. Indeed one or two employees which I have sounded out as potential witnesses on my side have instead bailed out (which is unfortunately somewhat understandable in these days of job cuts) explaining that they were doing so because they might actually be called as witnesses on behalf of my employer (which is a lot less easier to forgive I must say!). I'm not interested in recriminations against any of my co-workers who may actually stand as a witness for the employer (I really don't have the enery left for it apart from anything else). However I do feel that I should be entitled to know who may have been 'bagged' for the other side! Does anyone know if I do have a right to know who these employer-side witnesses are and if so, can I make my employer disclose this list of witnesses asap? Any advice would be most welcome.

How likely I am to get disability element on top of my working tax credits, based on the tax office guide lines, I think I would be entitled to the disability element, but dont know what the tax office would think I work 16+ hours per week Due to my health, I am unable to work, 5 days per week, or any long shifts now, so I only work 4 days ,and 6.5 hrs I have a secure job, in asda, so for me to find a new job, I think I would have some difficulty in doing so My health is poor, due to slow heart rate, high cholestral, and angina, easily get tired, and exhuasted. Have been in and out of hostipal getting tests done for last 2 years Because of my health I have had to take time of sick, and the way my days of sick work, does not allow me to get ssp, as it is my day off Since my health has got poorer, my earnings have been vastly reduced; 2008-2009, £12,600; 2009-2010, £9500, so my gross earning are less than the year before If I didnt get disability element then I would have to work more hours just to meet outgoings, but in doing so, I may very well make my self more ill, as I realy need to rest
