Dead Mothers Debt

[Info Bank]

A Friend of mine has recently lost his mother.

She Died 3 weeks ago.

She Moved from Scotland and moved home on a regular basis.

All over England.

Very complicated. But she seems to have had little contact with my friend .

Basicaly she has left a lot of debt.

My Friend is worried creditors will come after Him for the debt .

�20+ Thousand.

Can they claim it from him ???.

I would ask for �12.50 per hour. For this but you could do so much better.

I dont know your reasons for working 8 Hours per week but would imaging it has to do with family situ for young kids.

Still remember my previous posts at college you are an employee but f you do any other work you must at least double that fee as you will become self employed.

Thank you for your help so far, I feel a bit guilty for taking up your time. Yes, it is to do with family situation. At the moment I am earning 12 pound per hour as I am qualified at level 3 learning support. So I was hoping that interpreter rates would be quite a bit more. The council actually pay my wages, and I feel they are good payers.

PS thank you for giving me your email address. But I notice that this correspondence is quite private. For some reason the title of this thread is not appearing in the box that says "recent posts".

[Info Bank]

The council also pay me and thats the kind of rate i was working on.

LOL.

Feel free to contact me on my E-Mail address.

I work for a council who decided they no longer required any sign Language workers and i was reDepolyed .

Thats the reason i can offer my E-Mail as you have found me Via an old Thread

The 12 pound an hour rate is good for learning support. They pay that because the work is so insecure. If nobody needs me then I don't get the hours, they have no obligation to give me hours. At my last job I got 6.50 per hour but I got paid hoildays and paid if I was off work for good reason. So based on that information what do you think they'll give me/or I should ask for?

[Info Bank]

I need to do some checking ....I was basing the payment figure on someone working 35+ hours per week...

I worked in (Scotland) Social work ...Hearing Impairment team for 5 years and finished 4 years ago.... Still employed in Social Work as i have been for over 26 years....But some councils have decided to employ Interpreters and not skilled staff.

In your situation i would ask for �15 per hour.

Thanks Info Bank, I really appreciate you taking the trouble to answer my questions. It's strange that the thread title has never come up in the "recent posts" box. I'm pleased that it didn't.
Did you ever manage to reassure your friend that he wouldn't have to pay off his mother's debts?

[Info Bank]

Thats a very long story and he is still fighting it.

I did try to get him to join Answer Bank but like a lot of my friends they ask for advice and i need to confirm my responces....Havent heard from him Recently but he has a shed load of worries at the moment.

He is still having problems and i have advised him on it ....But fighting variouse creditors..... If he would only click onto this and see the responces he would feel better but he now feels im giving him the answers he wants and still he gets unwanted guests at his door.

[Info Bank]

I suppose you can lead a horse to watter but as the saying ....Cant make them Drink.

[Marijn]

Perhaps you could print out some of the answers for him. Some of them are excellent answers.
You've done your best for him, like you say. . . you can't make people take good advice.
Thanks again for your help. :-)
