I was wondering about that david --thanks, I will be careful not to spend it in one shop

Thanks, David, I was wondering about that -- better be careful not to spend it all in the one shop

David where did you find that info on the pension rise -- I have looked and can't find it --

PlanB - I've just had notification on my mobile phone to say the next increase of $250.00 will be put into my account within the next 3 days.

I went into my Centrelink account via my Gov. website and hit payment history. You will see

future payments itemised right up to the end of March beginning of April. Compare your

current payment with the last future payment and you will see an increase of $4.93 per

fortnight. David C

That is not an increase it’s a one of support payment.

I wish it were a $250 increase.

Oops! Sorry about that, you are right davidcabi, but I suppose every little bit helps.

Every little bit helps, but it doesn't solve the problem of high rent costs for people who through no fault of their own are trying to exist on the pension.

Thank you david

Yes HOLA I got that $250 as well -- grateful for it too

It is actually going to be $8.40 fortnight so a total of= $952.70  fortnight from -- $944,30 --  $24.770.20 year  rise of $218.40 a year although we are grateful for all we get  --- makes it rather small when politicians get about $275  A DAY over and above their wages just for being in Canberra

We are supposed to get a rise in March & September -- this time we got one but as usual, it takes these miserable so & so's a whole month to give us the bloody lot -- at the great amount of $8+
