cressida Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 A pound to me might mean twenty to them, I just wouldn't like to take the chance that they didn't need it - just be careful if you are at the cash machines though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopman Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 If the DWP start investigating claimants' bank accounts then any card payments will show up. This could mean benefits being stopped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foodbanks would have flourished regardless of which party had been in power for the last thirteen years. There are too many folk using foodbanks who should not be using them. Similarly there are too many professional beggars on the streets who are taking advantage of the generosity of good honest members of the public. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC people need to get a referral to a food bank by the likes of the DWP. I can't imagine the DWP willingly giving anything free to anyone.
