hi just wondering how long is the waiting period in galway. My husband signed on in april and so far have received no payment. he has gone in lots of time but i feel he is getting the run around from them and told everytime that it will be sorted soon. this is no good to us with bills coming in but the cwo wont give anything as i work. The last time he went in he was told to write a letter complaining about the waiting period as the staff say they cannot keep up with the workload. any one else having problems
 
Galway has the hightest ratio of undecided claims in the country; over 30% waiting for payment to be authorised. I'm afraid nothing will be sorted soon.
