Comments
from members we have helped:
|
| |
| "Without
your help I would never have received this money,
and I am delighted to note that after Mrs X's endless
prevarications which amounted at times to outright
lies, you finally succeeded in standing firmly on
her tail" |
| |
| "Thank
you for your article in the magazine. As a result
of this I contacted my local Council pointing out
that I recently had my 75th birthday. They promptly
increased my Housing Benefit, which
I didn't know I was entitled to before". |
| |
| "I
telephoned the Tax Watchdog number
and immediately received some very useful advice
on a Tax problem. It was a relatively small problem
but an important one and I did not want the expense
of seeking a meeting with an accountant. Tax Watchdog
came up trumps and I am grateful to you for making
this possible." |
| |
| "I
contacted the legal hotline and
the information was very helpful. Thank you again
for the help and advice provided." |
| |
| "I
would like to thank you most sincerely for your
help in assisting my application ……At
the end of September I received the splendid amount
of £4,810 which I feel quite justified in
fighting for. However, without your intervention
on my behalf I may not have been so successful.
Once again I say thank you very much." |
