I went on there and did a check on what I am entitled to and found that the housing benefit and council tax benefit were shafting me for £200 more than they should have done... so come Monday I'll take my print out with me and go do battle!!!

gail fantastic site didnt know i was allowed anything but know i know i do great and thanks

This website has been a godsend. I used it to calculate our housing benefit and Council Tax Benefit yesterday. My husband lost his job in December and we've been living on fresh air ever since... I found out that I was entitled to almost all of my housing costs and full council tax this morning after them making me pay £300 pcm towards my rent and only giving me £2 per week towards Council Tax... I rang the nice lady at the housing and queried the figure (make sure you ask for their full name before you start to querie your claim, you will find that they are a lot more helpful =P) she admitted that there appeared to be a problem and that it was my Tax Credit notification that was causing the problem. She told me that I would have to get a new document from Tax Credits saying I was no longer entitled to it any more as the last document didnt have that information on it. Anyway 5 minutes later the phone rang and she told me she was terribly sorry that a mistake had been made with my Tax Credit notice and that it DID say that we were no longer entitled to it any more... she is sending all the paperwork down to be reassessed!!

THANKYOU CHICCY XXX
