Statement Upheld Charging 26-May-2025
Summary: Mrs X complained the Council’s actions resulted in an overcharge to her late mother’s care home fees. We found fault with the Council delaying the Deferred Payment Arrangement application resulting in Mrs X’s mother incurring a higher Valuation fee. The Council agreed to apply a credit to the balance owed for £185 to reflect this extra charge and apologise for its delay in processing the application. We did not find fault with the Council’s actions about the other charges for Mrs X’s mother’s care fees. While we did not find fault, we recommend the Council writes to Mrs X to confirm it will complete a review of its financial assessment for the 12-week disregard if Mrs X has new information.
