Am i wrong in thinking that a family surviving on £5.83 an hour would get family tax credits to boost their income up?

I woudlnt Muffy my children are not strictly dependents any longer although the baby maybe I dont know.

Oh Muffy .. please don't get me started on tax credits :-D :-D
A government dept that works on the basis that the claimants should know all the rules and are responsible if overpayments are made ..as a result they chase overpayments at the end of the year??
Result? £>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> lost because they have already been paid, cost of appeals .. £££££

lmso...tell me about it !!

Lost track of what i owe them or they owe me ...changes on every phone call !!!

I remember when they changed it over from adjusting your tax code and paying less tax..to the actual tax credits...and we were £70 a month down with our income !!!...did me no favours...however...the small amount we do receive a month in lieu of the adjusted tax rate is about the only thing that keeps the wolf from the door at the mo so I'm going to grab it with both hands !! ..I see it as a monthly rebate as opposed to a gift ...which is what they would have us believe at it's inception x

I'm saying companies could afford more than the minimum wage if they looked further than their own investments in properties they own (assetts) and with a lot more help from the government and the banks.
Employees are easy to come by at the moment.. shareholders want a return for their investment but at the end of the day a company with a high turnover of staff or no staff will eventually see their profits drop and that will be reflected on their share prices.

Muffy .. it is a darned rebate , but talk to them on the phone ? It's like talking to a chocolate tea pot. Most annoying thing is that we as tax payers are paying for this 'service'
Rant over :-(

:-0 HH you got through on the phone??!!!!

Yep...our money recycled and given back....costing a blinking fortune in the process lol x

No.

I don't feel any satisfaction whatsoever that hangers on are getting their wrists slapped by a community that is once more chasing shadows.

The orchestratas of this are long gone.

Only the bozo's remain. And I doubt that they are capable of understanding their actions.

Police numbers need to be enlarged .......... and not by cancelling their time off !

It is pointless commiting such deviants to prison .................... when our prisons are so full.

So what will be their repentance ???

Maybe once again ............ when all the harsh words are said and done .......we will return to being English !

Like we always do !

RR took 40 mins and the result?
Don't worry we will send an ammeded calculation as you have informed us your son has left full time education. But you left it a bit late so there is money to pay back
We pay CIS as a business.. every invoice we submit to companies CIS registered has 20% paid straight to HMRC. We get no interest on the money accrued for our tax bill at the end of the following year .
Last year they had over 8k of our money building up over 12 months.
This is money we could have had in the bank and accrued interest on until the payment date..
How much money do HMRC have in their accounts from multi million pound companies forced to pay CIS?

Just me then Robin :-D

im sorry but the cuts dont wash with me,this waslooting on a grand scale from young people(and older people that should now better) people who think the country owes them something.the young 11yr olds will get away with it because they are to young to be put in prison,where are the patrents of these tearaways?maybe they should be charged instead for lack of parental responsability. these people were like savages i really couldnt believe what i was seeing lastnight on the tv.x

Nah I'm satisfied that the numb nuts got what was coming to them as well Hayley. lol..You're not alone Flower ;-) ;-)

I agree with you on both your points Suzanne x

Suzanne I think 10 yrs and over can be charged and tried sadly not tarred and feathered :-D

Ex judge on the TV earlier said that minors of that age would only go into a young offenders unit for serious violence/sexual related offences.
Said he'd be very surprised if he were taken into custody over this.

He apparently has already had a youth referral offence ...only last week.

Accident waiting to happen methinks.

Sorry Hayley.

My frustation at the lack of stiff response should not have been expressed upon your thread.

Please forgive ..... and ignore....... me.

Your a paying member Robin and are entitled to express you option upon where you want too including this thread....


Your sincere apologies have been duly noted, :-D
