I also should have said in my last post that I won't be taking advantage of it as I do not have a television.----- Original Message ----- From: "Barry Hill" <barry.hill3@xxxxxxx>

I've just been talking to someone who knows their *rse from their elbow on0800 40 85 900, and got the final word. For blind people who are eligible for the contribution, they will get the Goodmans smart talk box as part of the £40 contribution. Those who are on means tested benefits will get it for free. This is a very new, regional change. I am getting a refund because our region has not changed over yet. If your region has not yet changed over, or has changed over in the last 30 days, you are eligible for the Goodmans or a refund on it. However, if your region has changed over more than 30 days ago, you are not eligible for it. The finance office at the digital switch over were only told today, so it hasn't quite filtered through to all departments.

Is this what everyone else understands too, or is the Helpline wrong about that? Best wishes, Mike Higgins, Email: m.j.higgins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Address: 1 Portland Court, Sheffield, S6 3EW, UK.
