Need It's not that I forgot, it's just I don't know what to write on the letter asking for an appeal and I can't call the welfare rights group to due anxiety, and when I e-mail they just send me generic information back that doesn't answer my questions. So I have been relying on DH to sort it out for me but he has been finding it difficult to get through to them on the phone (often it's virtually impossible as the lines get so blocked up), and tbh I'm a bit narked because I tried to get him to sort it out early and he was blasé and didn't and now I have all this extra stress because he left it so late
. He feels bad and said sorry and I know it is hard for him having to do so many things for me so I guess I can't really be annoyed but it is stressful.
In other news of public bodies letting me down, I have another erroneous letter from Student Finance, strangely claiming that I've just told them that last academic year I was repeating my third year and thus I was entitled to no funding for it as it was second repeat year...which is wrong as it was my first attempt at my third year, and indeed I have never repeated any years of my degree
. They made a massive cock-up a few months ago insisting I was repeating my third year this year and thus was entitled to no funding, it took about 6 weeks for welfare at my university to sort it out and prove to them that was a load of bollocks, so thankfully I got my summer term payments on time. Now it's as if they're determined to screw me over and are saying "well if this year isn't a repeat last year must have been" for no apparent reason
. The whole thing is so bizarre. They are literally the most incompetent organisation I've ever had to deal with. So have had to e-mail my welfare adviser again asking for more help. Poor bloke must be sick of me!
Exam was harder than I was expecting and I had to guess a word which I of course then looked up when I got home and I translated it wrong -.-. But eh I'm sure I did alright anyway like.
Need Lucky you with the Liz Earle products! Also that's really good about your DC's school, they sound really good. I loved the school I went to sixth-form at, it was fantastic, they bent over backwards to help me achieve despite my mental health problems (I missed about a third of my schooling over AS & A2 years). I will never forget some of the staff there as I still feel indebted to them, they were amazing.
