Jimmy Carr`s laugh wrote:From an accident I had 4 years ago. Apparently I owe them £203.00. I did have an accident about 12 yrs ago and the solicitor payed RM before the gave me my cut - but this time they havent. I guess I kinda knew and just ignored it, or hoped they didnt realise - I dont know tbh

Thing is, were completely broke and live week to week. The guys wrote to me now twice, and I have to move on this before they get the DOM involved etc, and just take the lot 1 random week leaving is with no food. It says to contact them to arrange a payment method if I cant send a cheque straight away, which obviously I cant! Our mortage is £1600 a month, so we basically have no cash to do anything bar work, sleep, and housework!

Id struggle to offer £10 a week tbch.

Whats your take on it guys?

Cheers in advance,

Jimmy

Did you have to travel to a Tibetan monastery and become a Shaolin Monk, learn to walk on rice paper and pick up a red-hot brazier before he disclosed this mystery Straight4ward? :Very Happy I would have joined but it's such a vicious haircut! :shock:
