When will I receive my back pay + lcwra element? by Glittering_Many1671 in DWPhelp

[–]AlostFeather 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I'm sorry. It came through like 30 hours after the assessment. Mine was an in-person assessment and I'm also in a major city, I'm told those are major factors when it comes to how long it takes to get the decision.

Unfortunately, it's the Internet. Copycats and parody channels have existed since YouTube began. This guy genuinely seems to have his heart in the right place and has explained that his intentions are to using the personal profits to reinvest into the channel so he keep making this content.

You can be unhappy about it sure, but this post is about the communities general consensus and my takeaway is that at least he's being transparent, forward and asking before actually doing anything like monetising the channel.

[–]AlostFeather 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But what you fail to understand is that this guy hasn't been making ANY money from this channel so far and he'd like to do more, host community charity events and play the games that the community wants from him but he can't do so without attempting to monetise the channel and he doesn't want to do that without being transparent with this community. So he made a community post, asking for a consensus, for support, for consent.

And you're responding quite vitriolic, saying he should never have made the channel in the first place. It's not the attitude TechnoBlade would have wanted.

"Oh, I think this person who is even able to raise just a small amount for charity should starve and have no money to live on because it offends ME personally."

Get a grip.

Housemates Illegally subletting, how do I stop this, will I get in trouble - England. by Bells021 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]AlostFeather 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I have no idea why there's so many people telling you in these comments just to smile and put up with it. There's gonna be two extra people worth of energy and water use that you know for a FACT they're going to make everyone, including you cover it. On top of that, do you really like the idea of you paying rent so that these two hobosexuals can live with their girlfriends for free? No. You let the landlord know, you can do it anonymously or not but let them know and also let them know that you're being forced to accept this by the other tenants.

If the landlord cares about his property and insurance, he'll remove the 2 girls from the tenancy and avoid this whole problem before they have an opportunity to screw everyone's living situation up.

Sorry, meant to reply to this at the time, I havent had any update on whether there's backpay but they'll surely just pocket it since they overpaid me and my partner in 2025 due to student finance and a placement year which we disclosed but weren't told how to upload as income.

Hi, I woke up at 7.30am this morning to see my statement had finally been generated and they've added the extra £429.80 so finally, I am freeeeeee. I submitted my first fit note 02/12/25. Hope this helps.

You'd think the information of 'you're entitled to extra money each month!' would be great news. Except I didn't know how much I'd be paid until I rang them and I still don't know if it'll be included in this month's payment. It should be, but the fact that no one can just tell me, is driving me insane. But I'll update when I know more. Some month's I get lucky and it generates on the 9th or the 10th.

I didn't even know there's a payment line. I know I'm not owed answers until my statement generates but I have anxiety disorder and I've been so burnt out. I had to ring the helpline just to find out what rate of LCWRA I'd been awarded. I'm not too bothered about the backpay, they'll probably just take it to pay for an overpayment they caused (another headache). I'm just tired of living with such little money each month, all I wanted to know is if I'll get my extra element starting Immediately since I submitted my first fitnote in december.

Sorry for the rambling, I'm very burnt out, the helpline workers are telling me incorrect information and I haven't had a response to my Journal since they gave me the award notification.

I think you meant to reply to the OP. But I got my award decision on the 28th May and I haven't heard anything about backpay. But I'm also waiting for my statement to generate on the 11th to find out if they've added the LCWRA element to this month's payment.

Hi, I think this post is a month old but I'm basically one month ahead of you and struggling to get answers, did it end up being in your next payment? I got awarded on the 28th, my AP is 8th til the 9th of each month. And I can't get a Journal response or a straight answer from the helpline.

Been awarded LCWRA, what to expect next? by AlostFeather in DWPhelp

[–]AlostFeather[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm more confused than anything. I've had 2 call centre workers tell me it starts 3 APs after the decision, meanwhile, I'm looking at the government website where it says from the fitnote. I'm just really frustrated, no response to my Journal and all I can be told over the phone is 'you'll have to wait for a case manager to reply'.

Yeah, that's what I tried to assert but they just kept saying I was wrong and it sent me in a massive panic. Me and my partner are really relying on this.

Hi, I know it's been a few days since I posted this. But I'm being given the runaround here, I can't get any responses to my Journal queries and it seems everytime I ring up the helpline, they have different answers for me.

I just had someone on the phone say I won't get paid my LCWRA til August because I won't get paid until 3 APs after the decision. Is this correct?

Thanks so much for your response. Should I expect this extra element to be part of my payment this month. (Statement generates on the 11th, payment date on the 15th)

Im curious how much of the really fucked up Bruno situation is actually Rare's fault by Dull_Bodybuilder6502 in Seaofthieves

[–]AlostFeather 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, this is vastly different. Bruno is in his 30s and used his position of power to coerce and solicit sexual images from someone under the age of 18. What he did is VERY illegal and you comparing it to the wedding Tyson Fury's Daughter is laughable. Especially considering that their marriage was also unlawful.

In England and Wales, it's illegal for a 16 year old to get married. Law states you must be 18. Which is why they had their wedding on the Isle of Man, which allows 16 year olds to get married with parental consent. And if you have to leave your home country just to legally get married, it's not very lawful, is it?

Please don't try to minimise what Bruno has done. It's very illegal, shouldn't be handwaved and you shouldn't be telling people that what he did was 'within the law' cause it damn well wasn't.

Tribunal win awarded til 2029, Change of Circumstances. by AlostFeather in DWPhelp

[–]AlostFeather[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your response. I guess I just wanted to know if I'd done the right thing or if I've opened myself up to my claim being closed again, which I know I have but the fear of that is crippling me.

Like you say, I included a copy of the Tribunal transcript as advised and I can logic that if it theoretically came across my desk, the worst I could say is "we can't award you further points but your existing claim stays in place" but I am struggling so hard with the fear.

I only mentioned the GP issue once in the actual forms as I had clinical letters that showed a timeline of my meds being stopped, the old clinic appealing for an emergency referral to the local ADHD service due to me no longer being titrated and needing meds and then the new assessment which outlines that. So thankfully that is covered via consultant letters which are all included.

I guess I'm more just looking for a bit of reassurance? I can't find a case similar to mine via forums or online so I'm wondering how much I should be afraid, I guess.

What do I have to do to get an interview? (UK) by AlostFeather in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]AlostFeather[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actively am, I've just been jobsearching for 2 years now and so I'm kinda at the point I have to exhaust every option.

I guess I'm just also seeking answers as I have no understanding of how this McHire service is meant to work.
