Had to repay £100 today

[Rascal]

I have spent 50 nights in hospital this year already and the DWP have decided that because i was in hospital i owe them £100.


They sent me a letter threatening me with legal action if i didnt repay the amount.

During my time in hospital i spent far more than this £100 on two dressing gowns, a number of t-shirts, the privately owned TV service whilst still paying all my bills at home. They say as they fed me i owe them money.


How fucking bad and how fucking low will the DWP go in there pursuit of people who are not well. Ian Duncan Smith is behind this demonisation of the unwell, at every turn he attacks the disabled as feckless.

I have lost a quarter of my monthly income this month because i was unwell, how is that right?

Fucking outrageous that mate.

 

[Dogtanian]

[speccybob]

That is fucking disgusting. Surely it can't be right.

 

[Ovo]

It's not right Rasc. That's fucking ridiculous.

 

[stony]

Feel for you mate, it's fucking disgusting the way the sick and disabled are treated.

That TV service in hospital is shite an all, and don't get me started on how much it costs to make and receive phone calls.

Hospital food is disgusting too, I have food parcels delivered whenever I have to go in.

I feel for you mate. Its a disgrace.

Judging by the standard of food at NHS hospitals they should be paying you fucking extra for eating it.

I lost loads of weight last time I was in hospital for a prolonged period of time simply because it was so substandard. I also heard they pay more for prison inmates food than hospital patients, though I don't know how true that is, I could well believe it.

o be fair the food at Salford (hope) is good.

I spoke to the manageress there and she gets £1.17 per day per patient to provide them with a three course meal at dinner and tea.

Whats arbitary about this decison is they have not taken my situation into consideration, they have just decided they can save money.
