Social Services Card

    Hi All,

    Just have a quick question, wondering if anyone else has been in this situation.

    I signed on today and the money is going to my local post office. Was speaking to a friend earlier who said you need your social services card to collect the money from the post office.

    When I was in there today the girl who processed my claim didn't say anything about this. I know that I got the card years and years ago but I have no idea where it is.

    Do they send you out one when you sign on or will I have to apply for a new one does anybody know?

    Will ring tomorrow but just wanted to see if anyone here knows.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, I lost my card last month.
    I rang a number and explained what happened.
    The card was replaced by post in 3 days.
