    I have been receiving Supplementary Welfare Allowance for 5 weeks while awaiting Job seekers allowance application. This week and the double week before Xmas I have received €90 less for each payment. Is there something I'm missing here, why it would drop from the original amount which was equal to my Job seekers benefit.

    count yourself lucky, when i was getting it, i was issued a cheque for €23 for 11 weeks while waiting to be means tested, my bank overdraft just gobbled it up meaning i had pittance to live on for nearly 3 months
