Have you ever been to your NHS local office,do you even know where it is?         Boiling a frog    Report

They did refuse to do it  in the letter, but it was a bluff to get the payment that the first clinic should have,  but hadn't made,  directly from me. When I went into today they said that as the second clinic had paid for the second test they had in fact done it .    Report

It's the place with the queue outside full of expats paying their £35 fee for seeing a GP and those who have gone to the UK on holiday to either give birth or have their ingrowing toenail sorted out. I did go to the CPAM office to get my card updated. There was only two others there with either questions about their claim forms which they had or to get their cards updated. The office only opens to the public two mornings a week so I guess they don't get that many questions. http://www.chambresdhote.com    Report
