lab – I didn’t know the stats about the percentage of Motability customers driving autos, but I’m not surprised that it’s high. I’ve just checked and found that only 4% of Motability customers get grants. Doubtless a small number of people who might be eligible are unaware of them, but the vast majority of people are clearly ineligible for them. So the suggestion that the AP’s of autos are designed to make people apply for grants clearly doesn’t stack up!
Only 4% that’s shocking.
Hopefully I am eligible for a grant my career was ended by chronic health problems which are now worse our only income is ESA and PIP, my wife claims carers and part of that amount is removed from my ESA.
We don’t have any savings might be able to borrow a small amount from our son but paying it back is difficult, and he only works part-time so doesn’t earn a lot.
