Today I had the day off to deal with home stuff and debt. I knew it would be frustrating and indeed it was. I am sick of letters saying, I have refused entry, and we may evict u if you do t let us in, when they send texts saying we are coming today, ty for making an appointment when I have made no such thing. this time for central heating engineers when I don’t use central heating and in fact it has all been switched off at source for at least 7 years. The chap says every time pointless coming cos it’s all switched off.
I spend 40 mins on hold for Scottish power on a disputed standing charge when they never connected me, never sent a gas card and the meter is locked. I get cross and I despair on all public services in the U.K. this country is broken. They ha e now referred it for escalation but this complaint was filed in September and they still haven’t sorted it out.
I wait for council tax RE court and am on phone for over an hour and it ends up with my debt consoldated, that’s 7k. It was 10k so I guess some reduction is better than nothing. Court is averted. Until I fill an i and e it is now 50 pounds per month. Dealing with these things sometimes over decades I feel like I will explode in frustration and anger. I am about to write the overdue letter to the inland revenue. I am blowing a big raspberry to the lot of them.
