I was put in the wrag, but should be in the support group, so i asked for a reconsideration. I heard after about two weeks.

Wrag is, work related activity group, and the D.W.P. put you in it. If you claim benefit, but are disabled or unwell, they either find you fit for work, put you in wrag, or the support group. The support group is where i should be, but according to them, i am not.

Thanks, but i won't get in the support group, they have told me i am in the wrag. I think you would have to be nearly dead. I couldn't work if they paid me a million pounds, much as i could do with it. I am finding it so hard moneywise, more since the bedroom tax, and council tax. I have to now pay out £45 more than i used to. I am paying out more than i get, it is ridulous. How people are expected to manage, i have no idea, and when you have a long term illness, you have enough to cope with. x
