This tool has been so valuable when completing them for my clients. I have found several that were entitled to a range of benefits which they were not claiming. As a result of the tool, I have been able to assist my clients to make claims which they are entitled to and this has boosted their income and has made a positive difference in them being able to live a better quality of life Reviewed on: 14th May 2025

I understand it's usually based on an average, it would be good if it could provide more accurate information - sometimes it comes up with incorrect benefits which can lead to potentially giving people incorrect information. Overall it is a great tool though. Reviewed on: 14th May 2025
