Review on Trustpilot. New site

I take it someone else left under a black cloud, as I wondered what had happened to Ada, seems she's teamed up with the disgruntled bad mouther. I seriously don't get people, I really don't.

Welcome back, Poppy, glad you had a good, warm & relaxing time. 😎

Thank you. The weather was lovely and hot and now back to good old British weather 🙄

I can't imagine changing names, I'd give myself away straight away anyway lol. I can't be anyone but myself, what you see here, Is the real me, in real life.

I’m glad you had a nice holiday Poppy.

Well said @Lou67

I’ve only been on the Scope forums for 4 years but in the whole time I’ve been here I have seen nothing but kindness, respect and caring people, It’s absolutely terrible that this person wrote such horrible reviews and is clearly using alt emails to drag the rating down more so when they had nothing but kindness and support, it feels like a slap in the face to all the wonderful members of this community but some people are just nasty and best forgotten about.

We should focus on the good that this forum achieves, every single day someone is helped and supported and that is no small feat in my opinion

@Luchia

Hi I hope your doing good, I’ve been here about the same time as yourself and also found the forum a great place with great people.
Thank you that means a lot I was actually a bit worried about posting how I really felt for fear off saying the wrong thing but after receiving the posts from yourself and Jessie I’m so glad I did.
Your right this forum has been a tower off support and great advice from good people we can’t allow one or two people bring us down.
When it was all going on it affected me greatly how someone can turn on people for no reason but I genuinely hope they find some other place to build support.

Take care ❤️

We all know who it is, it’s sad when someone has to make multiple accounts to leave nasty reviews but unfortunately some people are just like that.

I wasn't going to comment again on here but having read more of the reviews on trust pilot I decided I had no choice. There really is some very nasty people out there and some really have no heart.

There's someone on there that has given a very heartless review and it's clear the person they are talking about is me.

They've accused me of stalking all their threads and posts on here, accused me of have having their threads closed, accused me of being a DWP spokesperson and I was working to protect their image and the public purse. Also accused me of inviting other members to "pile" on them. Also accused me of having them being banned from here.

I remember this person very well because of all the trouble they caused me at the time and just how downright nasty they were towards me.

I did nothing but try to help them but everything I said or did they didn't believe me and told me I was wrong. I also remember a member of the scope team stepping in to advise them that the advice I was giving was in fact correct. The problem here was that this member had deferred their state pension but their partner was claiming Income Related ESA. When you defer a state pension it's treated as notional income and will still affect any means tested benefits you're claiming but of course I was a liar and this wasn't true, according to them.

I also see that a current member of the forum has found the comment useful.

It's so upsetting when someone writes such nasty things about you when all I've done over a period of 7 years is put my heart and soul into helping and advising thousands of people. I've never worked for DWP or even considered "protecting the public person" in fact I've always done the opposite and help many thousands of people claim the benefits they are rightfully entitled to.

Some people seem to forget that it's real people that are on here with real feelings. We maybe sat behind a screen but we are definitely real people. I just don't understand why some people can be so downright mean and nasty.

I feel like I've been stabbed in my heart. I've never asked or even wanted any special awards, or any special treatment here and have always been my true self. What I do expect is for people to treat me with respect. I'm never nasty to anyone and have never disrespected anyone in all the time I've been here.

I think I deserve better than to be treated like scum. I'm very upset by this whole thing. 😫
