Update on Crisis Loan

gabs look at no. 15 looks like a copy and paste of several other responces put together Like mine I put in there about a small check

Congradulation, at least you are getting a part paid. It is amazing what peoplewill help with and what they turn down. Good luck in your journey.

You'll have a better #christmas next year, all of this will be over, you'll have your new home and will not need a crisis loan, as you will not be in crisis anymore - unless you want a decent Christmas, that is.

Grrrrrrrrrr to the Benefits System. Ten smilies with hammers. I'm glad you got the first month's rent and managed to put the rest of the money together. It is good to be truthful. Some day I hope you'll be rewarded for your honesty. You should know what to do when Christmas comes.;) I'm with you. Hugs.

good to hear that something got done about it gabs, i know it's not much but at least it is something! hope your okay! Megan. :-)

Hi there, I work in the field of supported housing with young people and one of their options if they cannot get a council house may mean going private rented which means getting a bond and of course rent in advance, yes unfortunately the social will only help out with the rent. Have you heard of Centrepoint, the national homeless charity? They do a bond deposit scheme, they are a national organisation but don't know if they do the bond deposit scheme in every area, in our area for the young people I have tried to access this for it entails an application form and then an interview, yes you have to pay this pack but I think you can come to a reasonable and manageable amount that you can afford, like I say I don't know if this is in your area, might be worth looking on the Centrepoint website to see where they are, well it's 8:59 Centrepoint I think, and they will best be able to also tell you their eligibility criteria, it's not a guarantee but worth looking into. Hope this info helps! Good luck!

I've never heard of a crisis loan.Where did you have to go social service? Well i am glad you got something.Something is better than nothing.Hope everything goes well with you!

Hi Gabs Yup You have to start somewhere! Not exactly what you wanted, but like you said, at least it is something!

At least it will be of some help.Not exactly what you wanted but every little bit helps.There are so many people that rort the system,I have seen it many times myself and the people that have a genuine need for assistance seem to miss out or get less.I hope things work out for you my friend!

Good that you already receive your crisis loan. I hope your problem will resolve.

I want to know how you are to get what you call bond money on what little check you get ? Looks like they should have some other part give that to you

I know thats not what you wanted but your right its a start. At least you tried and gave it your all. I wish it would have turned out better for you. Dont give up.

I'm glad you have some sort of assistance. As you said it's better than nothing. I think some people know how to work the system by telling lies. I think it is always better to tell the truth. You may not get much money now but the next time you try you may get more. I hope things will be looking up for you in the future though.

Yes Gabs it is a start hold your head high and know that you went witht he truth. The truth is waht matters and the truth is what makes us free to live a life of fortutude.

You'll have a better #christmas next year, all of this will be over, you'll have your new home and will not need a crisis loan, as you will not be in crisis anymore - unless you want a decent Christmas, that is.
