This is the second time in a week someone has spoken these words to me. It's over the phone when I am calling the helpline.
I almost shouted at the poor man just now when he suggested I take photos of the forms (all 27 pages of them) sign in the relevant places, find a neighbour?? to witness my signature and send them in digitally.
This is an ongoing feature of my new life since being widowed and now trying to apply for an energy savings grant or loan to improve my energy efficiency.
The process has already taken more than 6 months, the work has been done and now all I have to do is send in the claim form.
Boy do they make it difficult. He even told me to send proof of ID and utility bill although I have sent in those already.
Perhaps my photo ID will have changed so much after 6 months as I limp, white haired, to the photo booth.
Have any of you had similar experiences?
