LIFE AFTER HELGA !!!!

[Ivory55]

I was wondering what zero hours get if you have more than one employer

 

[dalspa]

The payment is to be based on the average of the last three years profit, so not good for you Ian.
This is also going to hit any self employed who have taken a lot of cash, and not put it through their books.

No Grants are available to us Ian. You will be able to receive Universal Credit and a payout when it comes in june depending on 3 years earnings. My wife works so i am unable to claim universal credit so unsure how you go about claiming it!

 

[PhilMary]

Good evening,,,

I have a question ( again). In fact a couple!!

I believe I heard that HMRC will contact me, re financial help, that I might not get till June?
And if the do it alphabetically I’m screwed!!

or I can apply for universal credit, and get a payment within a couple of days?

Did I hear correctly, that I can apply for one of the smaller grants ???

I’m ok for maybe a month, but that gives me four/ five weeks to get something sorted!

WHAT DO YOU THINK I SHOULD DO???

THIS IS NOT, NOT AN APPEAL!! IM FINE!! Lol
Maybe other self employed builders could comment on what their doing as well !!

Ian, you should have already started your claim, you've lost a week's pay already.
Please get on line and fill in the form.
You'll have Chaser after you ?
Phil

I am not going to claim it surf,,, I’m going to wait till hmrc contact me and I’m going to gratefully take what they give me!!

I believe in a month or so I may get a bit of work sorted and I’m fine till may even June,,

I now have overdraft facility, credit card, and loan possibilities, should I need it!

I can also defer my rent,, so I’m hoping I will be fine!! I’m sure there’s a few worse off than me!!

Or in builder terms - chase out an inch or so of the frame to expose more of the window.

[Barclaybasher]

Swear at it, hit it then swear at it again - won't fix it but makes you feel better

It’s a long time since I had a similar problem. Try moving the pointer to the right hand edge of the screen and it may change to a horizontal line with an arrow on each end. If you are using a mouse, click and hold down the left button and slide mouse towards the centre of the screen, this should/may drag the screen to the left. If not using a mouse, try holding down the ctrl button and if there is an arrow left button, press this.
Failing all this you could go into the settings, screen and resize.
I am no IT geek, so I may be talking a load of crap, but no harm in trying above.

move done that David but there’s no room to move the whole screen left!! It’s as though the whole page is slightly to the right, but won’t go left,, I can reduce up and down with that system but not left and right!!

im getting wound up with it now,, it may go out the window today!!

 

[tonyidle]

Just buy a bigger monitor .

 

[tonyidle]

More seriously - click on the 3 dots top right then reduce the Zoom setting.

Done that tony, but all that seems to do is reduce the print, picture etc,, the white background doesn’t reduce!!

 

[Shrimp]

Close everything, force close everything, turn it off and walk away.

Solution 1 – Change your resolution
According to users, if your screen shifts to the right, the issue might be somehow related to your display resolution. It’s possible that you’re using a resolution that is not fully supported by your monitor, and that is causing your screen to shift.

This can be an annoying problem, but you might be able to fix it simply by changing your display resolution. To do that, follow these steps:

1. Right-click your desktop and choose Display Settings from the menu.
   
2. When the Settings app opens, set the lower resolution. Your resolution will now change.
   
3. If the problem is resolved, click Keep changes button. If not, click Revert.

Solution 2 – Check your graphics card software
If your screen shifts to the right, the problem might be your graphics card software. Almost all graphics cards come with their dedicated software that allows you to configure your display settings such as resolution, scaling and position.


It’s possible that some of these settings are changed, and that is causing the error to appear. To fix the issue, you just need to do the following:

1. Open your graphics card software. That’s usually Nvidia Control Panel or Catalyst Control Panel.
2. Once you open your graphics card software, go to the Display section > Adjust desktop size and position.
   
3. Now go to the Position tab in the right pane. Now you’ll see a small box with four arrows. Click the left arrow until your display is properly centered. Now click Apply to save changes.
   

After doing that, the problem with your screen should be completely resolved and everything will start working again. Keep in mind that the steps might be a bit different if you’re using AMD or Intel’s graphics.

Solution 3 – Use Center image option
According to users, if your screen shifts to the right, the quickest way to fix it is to use Center Image option. To do that, just follow these steps:

1. Right-click your desktop.
2. Now choose Graphics options >Panel fit > Center Image.

After doing that, your image will readjust and the problem will be resolved. We have to mention that this feature is related to your graphics card software, and you might not have it on your PC if you don’t have the proper drivers installed.

Solution 4 – Change your refresh rate
According to users, sometimes your screen shifts to the right due to your refresh rate. Apparently, this can happen if you’re using an unsupported refresh rate. To fix the problem, you just need to adjust the refresh rate by doing the following:

1. Open Display Settings as we showed you in Solution 1.
2. Scroll down and click Advanced display settings.
   
3. Now click Display adapter properties for Display 1.
   
4. A new window will now appear. Go to the Monitor tab and set Screen refresh rate to the desired value. After doing that, click Apply and OK to save changes.
   

Keep in mind that you might have to experiment with different values until you find the one that works for you. Several users reported that the problem was resolved after switching to the 59Hz resolution, so you might want to try that.
