    Confused , well so am i

    you cannot ask anyone any question in the social , they are so rude and mean

    so last week i turned 25 and still living at home i was on 101 - 87 because im living at home so that monday i got 101 and rang to find out why

    a nice lady on the phone told me that payments are always one week behind so this monday it might go up to 188 but come in anyway to make sure its changed

    so i arrive inside and explain why the girl on the phone told me and this man told me i have to re-apply :confused:

    i just dunno what to do anymore :(

    Well thats rubbish that you have to re-apply what day last week were you 25...I presume that the means assessed against you are from parental income and not from any self-employment/earnings of your own. How much did you get this week???

    Well you wouldnt get €188 this week as you were 25 on 19th...so there would only have been a partial over 25 payment. Its possible that this will appear in your payment next week.... if not then you need to go into them again Im afraid.
