does everyone claim back for milk

[ajs]

do all you new or old childminders claim back for milk
as a childminder we are entitled to claim 1/3 of a pint for each child we care for everyday so for each child over 3 days you can claim back the price of 1 pint.

my milkman has just put up his prices to .90p a litre which means my claim comes to £47.52 for the last 3 months
that's not bad is it for just filling in a form

I am glad you reminded me about this.
I have been meaning to get around to finding out - I didn't realise you could claim so much - thats brilliant!

Is it the same number for Wales do you think?

[angeldelight]

It might be a different number Holly but you could always call them I bet they could give you your local number

[Polly2]

I might try ringing local county council number if not

[LittleMissSparkles]

Yes i knew about this and have tried repeatedly to get the forms.

I have spoken the the call centre in excess of 7 times and given my details each time and they have told me the forms will be posted and they never arrive!!

Im sick of trying! I dont know how difficult it can be to put something in the post.

I now claim for the milk but it took me 4 months of trying to get registered with them. I ended up writing to them and that seemed to work.

As Tesco says " Every little Helps" especially since the price of milk has gone up.

They are very quick at paying you once they have received your claim. At most takes 2 weeks to get paid.

On average I claim £42 every 3 months.

[sarah707]

I claim... until recently though I was getting it wrong in my books...

You need to put your milk purchases through your books with food etc as expenses... then your claim amount through your books as income. I was forgetting to claim expenses - what a twit!!

hi polly 2
the number you need for claiming milk is
nursery milk helpline 08707 203063 i needed to send them a copy of our registration certificate saying how many children under 5 we have 5 so it
works out about £80.00 for the 4 months worth claiming
they will send you a claim form which you send back every 4 months easy to fill out

[Polly2]

Oh thankyou Cathy

I will ring them today

[LittleMissSparkles]

do you have to get it from a milk man ???

[ruby]

not as far as i know i get mine because i find it easier as we use rather a lot
and i know that if we run out i will always have some in the morning.

[carolinel]

do you have to get it from a milk man ???

I wouldn't think so Susan - shouldn't matter where you get it from, but i would imagine you would have to keep receipt

[LittleMissSparkles]

will phone tommorow then to register to claim it back, thank you once again ladies xxx

[ajs]

no you don't have to get it from a milk man but i just happen to and you don't even have to keep receipts other than the initial claim one.
my milk man is so expensive that if i wasn't claiming it back i would never use him .90 a litre it's about 82 in the supermarket but that of course is what the supermarkets are being investigated about.

good luck it's worth the small amount of paperwork every 4 months

[Pauline]

I claim it and although the forms seem complicated it's well worth the effort.

I asked for the claim forms by email and they arrived within days but I have heard of people having problems.

[gailee]

hi i tired claiming i filled in the form sent it off and heard nothing since then been 3 months might have to phone them see whats happening !!
