Extremely useful

very useful and informative at giving the most accurate information for people on benefits or wanting to know if they are receiving the correct benefits. Would like to see AI incorporated into this Reviewed on: 19th June 2024

Website crashes often, have to open another browser to get it working. A lot of the time the results are inaccurate - I understand this is an average, but it often shows results that are hundreds of pounds out. Reviewed on: 18th June 2024

Policy in Practice: Better off Calculator Review

Policy in Practice: Better off Calculator is a great tool to use within my working day. It helps strategise my solutions, and confirm with Clients the exact amount of income. Not only this but it is great for highlighting areas of where people can make changes to their income and can result in significant financial gain. One improvement I think could be made would be an integrated council tax band system from when you input the postcode, as oppose to checking the band on the Gov Website. Reviewed on: 18th June 2024

I use the calculator in my role as a welfare benefit advisor. it's an incredibly useful tool that helps to identify what benefits a customer could be eligible for, as well as having links and information to assist in applying for them. I can also send a report to customers to peruse in their own time. Reviewed on: 18th June 2024
