I have had several phone calls offering to sell me Solar Panels, you end up in debt for many years, but free electricity.
How good is that?
Another Daft advert on the top of these pages, `Get your Free Gas Boiler.`
I cannot get one,
All our overseas residents who live in my avenue have all had new radiators and Gas boilers. I said where is mine,
You are not on benefits so No Chance.
I am a Pensioner, ...No That is not good enough, You have to have Pension Credit, ....Then give me Pension Credit and I will have a Boiler...
Pension Credit is when your State Pension is not as much as it should be, But because I have a Merchant Navy Pension that I bought and paid for with my own money I am over the limit for Credit,
If I was on Pension Credit I wouls get a free boiler, I would get FREE Council Tax, more than £1250 a year, free dental and Opticians glasses.
If I deduct those benefits from my Pension I am living on less money than the ones who have No Occupational Pension. My boiler is 15 years old, always breaking down, costs me a fortune to maintain, burns more gas than it should do and gives me bigger gas bills further reducing my net pension.
If it breaks down again, the Man said there are no more spare parts, it is obsolete. then I will have pay over £2000 for a new one.
My overseas neighbours , never paid a penny in taxes, on every benefit going, and also New Mercedes Cars on the disability. get everything for Free.
I only wished I had gone on the ale and spent all my money and Not invested in a MN Pension.
Cheers
Brian.
same here brian get bugger all cos I paid into a pension instead of pissing it against the wall.......the effing banks had hold of my house and factory for over 25 years and if my company had gone down they would have took all I had .....then one day it all rolled over to me and mine ...but nobody told me all doors were closed as to help of anysort .......and all the taxes I had paid wuld go to someone else and as I grow older I see people drawing 2or3 hundred pounds a week who have never worked ......does anyone do anything about it ......no cos the ones in power have got there gobs in a bigger trough.....regards cappyQuote:

Same as John in Oz, got mine at the same time. However could only afford 5. To be nearly self sufficient reckon would need at least 15. The company I bought off are now non existant, going to others to increase the amount are going to charge at least 3 times of the original investment. In summer they make about 6.9 Kwatts a day, enough to run the fridges and TVs I reckon. I have recovered the original investment of about 2500 dollars.But wary of increasing the investment as seems rather large just to add extra. Cheers John Sabourn
