Hi all, first post
Just finished radiotherapy for prostate cancer, still on hormone therapy, and seeing my consultant in 4 weeks time. Fairly confident, as cancer had not come out of the prostate, and last psa I had before radiotherapy was nearly zero following 3 months of hormone therapy.
Dont know if anybody else has had a problem with receiving monies from their local nhs trust after claiming for fuel costs with a frequent traveller self drive travel claim?
I put my claims in and 2 weeks gone since I should have received the first payment.
Had lots of communication with the finance assistant via email and phone, and was given reasons for delays and reassurance on getting it soon.
Promised yesterday, and nothing transferred, and now being ‘ghosted’
I think theres been a mess up in the finance dept. but after being off work since last December, things are getting tight, and I could do with the monies, and dont need the stress.
I’m in Cornwall, anybody else experience this issue?
Thanks, Jim
