"I am claiming Employment Support
Allowance and put sick notes in and am waiting for payment. I didn't
receive any money for 3 weeks, so rang them. They told me that the
sick note was lost, so had to get another one. I put another sick
note in. Again after 2 weeks I had still received no money so I rang
them and was told my new sick note had been lost. I went into the
Job Centre to make a statement, this also got misplaced.
Now finally after 5 weeks I hopefully
should get paid, but it has been a struggle. I am lucky to have my
family and to know about the Foodbank."
