I rang happy days to enquire if they took into account family size in their income criteria. My dh earns well below the income criteria however due to having four children our tax credits take us over the limit slightly, they also use gross income.
She told me I was financially more fortunate than a family with an income just below the 25k limit. I tried to explain that a family with one or two children would be better off with an income of 25k than my family is with an income of a few hundred pounds over.
She was then very rude and snotty and told me it was my choice to have so many children , I am really upset by her tone my dd's disability was not evident at birth and even if it was she loves her siblings very much.
