I qualify for a bus pass but as of now I have not claimed it and I would think that many pensioners with cars dont claim the right to a bus pass.
If you can get about under your own steam and are fit enough to do so, why subject yourself to a means test.
Too many governing busybodies paid a lot of money for coming up with hairbrained ideas for persons they think are too old to realise that they are being hoodwinked..........did not come from my school.  |
theres no means test at all roy, ya just fill a very small form in along wi a photo n its sent away few weeks later yer pass lands, we use ours occasionally like margaret says, costs a bomb to park, n we have lunch or a snack etc wi that money. the elderly get little enough IMHO, n most have worked all there lives, so what little they can have, i think its daft not to.
