Hi MSE people!
New to the forums so firstly, HI there!
Now on to the skinny. My girlfriend (who is 20, not that it should make a difference) receives DLA at the middle rate for care and lower rate for mobility for a total (according to the Rates page for DLA on the gov.uk website) of £74 per week...
Now my question to you (is very silly) is this... as DLA is paid every 4 weeks/monthly surely I should times the £74 by 4 (£296) to get said monthly amount.
So why is it then my lady is only getting £88 (ish) every 4 weeks?
She has had no letters explaining this, is it worth me getting on the phone and (calmly) asking where the heck the other £208 is?
Many thanks
Rich
