[QUOTE="Hopeful34, post: 2514322, member: 378858"] I'm sorry you're struggling so much to pay basic household bills. You've probably already done this, but if not, it's always worth checking with somewhere like citizens advice/Age Uk etc, or online, to see if there are any other benefits you or your wife could claim, or if you can get vouchers to use a foodbank etc. If it's been a while since your wife claimed Pip, is it worth putting a new application in? If you didn't get the £150 council tax rebate, local councils have been given money to help low income households. It's worth checking with your council to see if you qualify for housing benefit. I don't know the criteria for pension credit, maybe worth exploring?? If you've done all this, my apologies, I was just trying to think of anything that might help. It's miserable to be in a situation like this, and I hope you can get some help from somewhere soon. Take care. [/QUOTE]
