Our next door neighbours are truly taking the rip. Not out of us, but out of the benefits agencies. They get their full rent and council tax paid through benefits, which I dont have a problem with. What I do have a problem with is them getting the rent and council tax paid for a place that they haven't been near in the last 6 weeks. It is nice that we have no noisy neighbours, but getting benefits for a house that you're not using is a bit much. They also got money to decorate and furnish the place.

Growing the maru-a-jahna is a fulltime occupation mate and humans waste valuable plant space I'll have you know.

ATP - that would not surprise me in the slightest. Although round here all the houses have card meters.... 😯

Sounds like they've grassed themselves up.

Surprisingly, the best way to prove they hadn't been there for weeks would have been to sneak in and build a dope farm...

that they haven't been near in the last 6 weeks.

they may be in prison for benefit fraud, child abuse etc,

or dead due to carbon monoxide poisioning from the neighbours hosepipe passed through a small hole in the wall.

or they may have won the lottery and are now considerably richer than you.

Friends of a friend live happily in a 5 bed house paid for by the state. A couple of the sons do building work but they still live there. Plus they deal puff/weed etc. The mother is on disability allowance but admits she's pulling a fast one. She occasionally has grandchildren to stay (inc babies/infants) but refuses to put the heating on (because it costs money) and instead gives her teenage sons money for console games and going out etc. None of them (other than the two currently working) have any desire to lift a finger whatsoever.

Lazy ****s the lot of them. I so nearly filled in one of the those online "report someone of benefit fraud" forms last year but didn't have their address or enough other info. People like them really f%^& me off.

why don't you report them then. what annoys me more than benefit cheats is those that claim someone is cheating the system, bitches about it on a public forum but doesn't actually do anything productive or proactive about it.

Calm down HC. I don't yet have specific info to add weight to my report. I've been trying to get that from my friend - and the problem there is that her daughter has gone off the rails and shacked up with one of the middle sons. Hence it got political so I backed off. I just hope the girl sees sense and severs all links - then I'll see what else I can get on them.

How do you know they haven't signed off benefits, and are working away from home.
Or signed off benefits after getting left some money and gone away on holiday.
Or signed off benefits after winning £46M on the euro millions.

Might not be, but you don't know otherwise do you ?
