Indeed, the "Tell us once" service was offered to me and I tried to use it; but that`s where I ran into problems with my {evident} "non-existence".
Today`s meeting with a senior DWP officer, parachuted into the local office to try and sort things out, was inconclusive.
I remain 'unknown' for the time being, whilst a higher authority is being consulted........the officer today seemed to be subtly trying to ascertain if I bear an inherited or professional title {yes!}, and/or had worked with the security services, or armed forces; either here, or overseas {no!}.
So for the moment, I can only assume they think I`m a retired professional assassin, living with some kind of concealed identity; in my case, that`d probably be under the "Witless Protection Programme"
So, at least for for now; I`m Ninja-Deb.......but you haven`t seen me; right?
