Ok-dokey~
My dad died 6 months ago, my mum is receiving bereavement benefit. She also has cancer.
On advice, she applied for INCOME SUPPORT. 2 months later we had still heard nothing about her claim, they then said she may be entitles to INCAPACITY BENEFIT due to the cancer. So, she sent off the medical certificates from the doctor to them and we are still waiting....5 months later!
They keep fobbing us off when we call...she has had to cancel her direct debts as the bank will no longer accept them...she is owed payments back to 18th June when my dad died, will they bother to even fulfil this to her??
Can someone please give some advice on how to get things moving, she has been diagnosed as having a nervous breakdown thru all this but Income Support and Incapacity Benefit JUST DON'T CARE!
Please, please help.
